This combination of opposing spins ensures that the croupier has no control over the outcome. Indeed, it’s virtually impossible to 👌 predict where the ball is going to stop because the speed and force of each spin will always be slightly 👌 different.

Once the ball comes to a stop, the number it lands on will determine whether you’re a winner or not. 👌 To show you want we mean, let’s run through a quick scenario:

You walk up to a European roulette table and 👌 place three chips on the following: 12, Red and 3rd 12. At this point, your bets will have covered the 👌 following number of options 12 = one number, Red = 18 numbers, 3rd 12 = 12 numbers. The wheel is 👌 spun, and the croupier calls time. This means the ball is about to be spun and your bets are locked 👌 on the roulette board. Eventually, the ball stops on the number 34. Because 34 is a red number located in 👌 the 3rd 12 section of the board, two of your bets have won. If we take the same scenario but 👌 the ball stops on 13, you’d lose because this number isn’t 12, is black and is in the 2nd 12 👌 section of the roulette table.

That, in a nutshell, is how roulette works. The reason it’s become popular with players of 👌 all skill levels is that you can be as general or specific as you like. For those that want high 👌 returns, you can bet on individual numbers. For those that prefer to win more frequently, outside bets are better.
