American Roulette
Loading...American Roulette from Realtime Gaming is an exemplar of the classic take on table games. It has 36 numbers colored in red and black as well as two zero sectors (0, 00) that collect a bet in favor of the house. There are only main bet types here which are found in any classic American Roulette, and no special side bets. With that in view, the highest payout a player from the United States can lay his hands on is 35:1.
The visual design of this online casino game is good but actually kind of simplistic and nothing exceptional to note. Location of the layout and wheel imitates a first-person viewpoint as if sitting at the table. Green background with white and golden borders as well as a constantly rotating wheel look smoothly and eye-pleasing.
A threshold to enter the roulette is $1, which is the minimum bet on any type of bet. Maximum amounts are uniform and are set at $250 for any inside and outside bet. The total bet to play is thus limited to $500 per spin. Real money gaming requires prior registration in a selected online casino. Some sites also offer bitcoin wagering.
There is a Help section that provides a short guide to those who are studying roulette basics. Using simple prompts, arrows and text messages, the Help feature guides a player through some roulette aspects and shows how to build a bet, remove chips from the layout, etc. A small zoom-in window at the top right corner displays an enlarged view of a spin outcome. Another small screen is designed to indicate the last 10 outcomes.
American Roulette features all the familiar types of inside and outside bets such as black/red, even/odd, low/high (these are simple chance bets with 1:1 payouts), column, dozen (both award 2:1), line (5:1), five numbers (6:1), corner (8:1), street (11:1), split (17:1) and single number (35:1). Probabilities of hitting any of these bets vary between 2.60% and 47.4%, and the overall house edge is a classic 5.26%. Those who like to play it safe should take a closer look at even money bets (red/black, etc.) as they have the highest odds of succeeding.
