What Is Roulette?
Roulette is a casino game played with a spinning wheel containing numbered pockets and a small ball. Players place bets on where they believe the ball will land once the wheel stops spinning.
The wheel typically includes numbers 1 to 36, coloured red and black, plus one or two green zero pockets depending on the variant.
The objective is simple: correctly predict the outcome and receive a payout based on the type of bet placed.

| American Roulette | Double Zero (0 & 00) | ~5.26% |
| French Roulette | Single Zero + Special Rules | ~1.35% (with La Partage) |
