The Roulette Collection
Some wheels have one zero; others have two or three. Rounds use a dealer, automated equipment or software, while special rules can change how bets are paid.
Explore the collection01 / Three ways the game changes
French roulette shares its single-zero wheel with European roulette. Live roulette and RNG roulette can both use the same 37 possible outcomes.
37pockets
1–36 + zero

human dealer
La Partage · eligible even-money stake
A single-zero wheel has 37 pockets: 1–36 and 0. With standard payouts, adding house pockets increases the house edge.
These categories overlap. Speed describes the round’s pace; it does not specify how many zeros a wheel has.
02 / The Wheel Collection
The 36 numbered outcomes remain. Additional house pockets change the probabilities when ordinary payouts stay the same.
37 pockets · standard European clockwise order
Collection 01 1 zero
The European wheel has numbers 1–36 and one green zero. Red/Black, Odd/Even and Low/High bets all lose on zero under standard rules.
37equally likely

Standard winning payouts include 35:1 Straight Up, 2:1 Dozens and 1:1 Red/Black.
37 pockets · French zero rules depend on the table
Collection 02 Single-zero wheel
French roulette uses the same single-zero wheel as European roulette. Table labels include Rouge (Red) and Pair (Even). Where offered, La Partage or En Prison changes how eligible even-money bets are settled after zero.

With La Partage: 98.65% RTP on eligible even-money bets. Other bets retain the standard rate.
38 pockets · standard American clockwise order
Collection 03 2 zeros
The American wheel has 0 and 00 on opposite sides, with a different clockwise number sequence. Standard payouts match European roulette, but ordinary bets face an extra losing outcome.
38equally likely

The five-number bet covering 0, 00, 1, 2 and 3 is an exception: 6:1 net payout and 7.89% house edge.
39-outcome schematic · not a physical pocket order
Collection 04 3 zeros
The 36 numbers are joined by three house pockets, commonly marked 0, 00 and 000. The third marking and the order of pockets can vary by game.

Values assume conventional payouts. The arrangement is schematic; actual wheel order and house-pocket markings vary.
RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical percentage of stakes returned under the stated rules. House edge is the casino’s expected share. Neither predicts the result of one session.
03 / French roulette
The same 37-pocket wheel can settle the same wager differently. La Partage returns half of an eligible even-money stake after zero.
Result 0
Returned0
Lost10
Net result−10
Zero is not red. Under standard rules, the full 10-unit stake is lost.
Only eligible even-money bets qualify. La Partage applies to eligible Red/Black, Odd/Even and Low/High bets where offered. It does not reduce the house edge on Straight Up, Dozens or Columns.
With En Prison, an eligible even-money stake may stay on the table after zero. A later win returns the held stake without profit; a loss forfeits it. Check the table’s rules for repeated zeros and other conditions, which can affect the return.
04 / How a round operates
A digital interface can connect to a real wheel or to software. Placing a bet online does not necessarily mean the result is generated by software.
Physical wheel
At a land-based table, the dealer operates a real wheel and players place chips on the felt. The pocket where the ball settles determines the winning number.
The ball settles in a physical pocket.
Physical wheel
A dealer and physical wheel are streamed from a studio or casino. Players place bets through a digital interface; the ball still settles in a real pocket.

Software-generated outcome
An RNG game generates its winning outcome through software. A wheel animation can display the result, but no physical roulette wheel is required.
Software selects the outcome; the animation displays it.
Check the payouts and table limits before placing a bet. A wheel’s appearance does not tell you how a wager will be paid.
05 / Specialty roulette
Multiple camera views change the broadcast. Extra balls and multipliers can change the results or payouts. Each game has its own rules for settling bets.
Evolution Lightning Roulette
One to five Lucky Numbers receive 50×–500× payouts on qualifying winning Straight Up bets. The automated single-zero wheel supplies the result.
Other standard bet categories keep their usual payouts. Total returned includes the stake.

Evolution Double Ball Roulette
In Evolution Double Ball Roulette, a dealer activates a device that launches two balls. They settle separately, producing two winning numbers. The available bets and payouts follow the game’s Double Ball rules.
Example results: 17 and 32. Two-ball bets follow the game’s own payout rules.
Evolution Immersive Roulette
Evolution Immersive Roulette uses multiple camera views and slow-motion replay to show the spin and landing. Camera views and replays leave the winning number unchanged. The wheel and betting rules determine the house edge.

Evolution Instant Roulette
Evolution Instant Roulette uses twelve synchronized automated physical wheels. When you start a round, the game selects the wheel closest to its next ball drop. That physical wheel determines the result.
