<br>Roulette is universally recognized as one of the most iconic and popular games in casino history.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>European and American roulette may look nearly identical to the untrained eye, but the math differs wildly.<br>
|
||||||
|
The Extra Green Zero
|
||||||
|
<br>A European roulette wheel features 37 pockets in total: the numbers 1 through 36, plus a single zero (0).<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>While the payouts remain exactly the same, your odds of hitting a specific number decrease on the American wheel.<br>

Why the House Edge Matters
|
||||||
|
<br>With a house edge of 2.70%, European roulette is relatively fair compared to many other [casino](http://ossosu.com/author/jonathonschaef/) games.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>Statistically, for every $100 you wager, you expect to lose $2.70 on European and $5.26 on American.<br>
|
||||||
|
Lowering the Edge Even Further
|
||||||
|
<br>The "En Prison" rule "imprisons" your bet for the next spin if the zero hits, giving you a second chance.<br>
|
||||||
|
<br>This makes French roulette one of the most mathematically favorable table games on the entire casino floor.<br>

<br>Playing American roulette is a mathematical mistake that unnecessarily drains your bankroll twice as fast.<br>
