Types of Roulette Games
Roulette is one of the simplest and most entertaining online casino games. Since it is based entirely on luck, players do not have to bother about learning and implementing any complex gaming strategies. However, roulette experts do say that implementing certain betting strategies can better ones chances of winning big money. Another big advantage of roulette is that it is available in so many varieties, although these varieties are based on the standard rules of roulette. The slight modifications make each variant stand apart from the other variants at online casinos.
One of the latest and most exciting variant of roulette is Wild Viking Roulette, which is based on roulette rules, but does not use the roulette wheel. Instead, it uses five playing cards, drawn at random by the dealer. Other variants of online roulette are live dealer roulette, American Roulette, European Roulette, French Roulette, Premier Roulette, Roulette Royale, 3D Roulette, Club Roulette, Mini Roulette, Roulette Pro, Roulette 5, and La Roulette, to mention just a few.
The most popular variants of roulette are European Roulette and American Roulette. The European Roulette wheel comprises 35 slots bearing numbers from 0 to 36, while the American Roulette wheel comprises 36 slots bearing numbers 00 and 0 to 36. The presence of a double zero increases the house edge of American Roulette, which is why experts prefer playing European Roulette.
French Roulette, another delightful variant of roulette, bears a striking similarity to European Roulette in that it comprises only one zero followed by numbers 1 – 36. Playing French Roulette is a nice way to learn French because the entire game is in French. Moreover, French Roulette has a few extra betting options while compared to European Roulette.
Mini Roulette, as its name suggests, is a miniature version of the standard game of roulette, but with the same betting options. A Mini Roulette wheel has a single zero and a total of 13 slots.
Online casinos offer various permutations and combinations of the above-mentioned variants. Although players cannot find all these variants at one casino, they will definitely find a few of them, both in the Flash and Download modes.
