Online roulette

online rouletteOne of the most played games in the online casino is roulette. Roulette is an age-old game that has been enjoyed for years in regular casinos. The rules of roulette are not very difficult to learn, so anyone can play it. The purpose of roulette is to predict where the roulette ball will come to rest in the roulette wheel. There are multiple betting options with online roulette, and you can win back up to 35 times your bet.

The bets in roulette

In roulette we divide the betting options into two types: the inside bets and the outside bets. With an inside bet, you bet on one or more numbers. With an outside bet you don’t bet on the number field, but outside it. There are five different outside bets. Below we have made an overview of the different betting options.

Inside bets:

    • Straight bet– Bets are placed on a single number. When you win, your bet is paid out 35 times.
    • Split bet– You bet on two numbers at the same time. You do this by placing the chips on the line where the two numbers intersect. If you win, your bet is paid out 17 times.
    • Street bet – This bet is placed at the end of a row of three numbers. If you win, your bet is paid out 11 times.
    • Corner bet – You bet on 4 numbers at the same time. You do this by placing the chips at the point where the four numbers intersect. When you win, your bet is paid out 8 times.
    • Line bet– Now there is bet on say numbers at the same time. You do this by placing the chips at the end of two rows. If you win, your bet is paid out 5 times.

Outside bets:

    • Red or black– You bet on the red area or the black area. When you win, your bet is paid out once.
    • Even or Odd– Bets are placed on even or odd numbers. When you win, the bet is paid out once.
    • High or low – You bet on the numbers 1 to 18, or 19 to 36. If you win, your bet is paid out once.
    • Column bet – You bet on one of the three columns. If you win, your bet is paid out twice.
    • Dozen bet – a bet is placed on the numbers 1 to 12, 13 to 24 or 25 to 36. If you win, the bet is paid twice.

The house advantage with online roulette

The house advantage with online roulette differs per roulette variant. If you play European roulette or French roulette, the house edge will be 2.7%. European roulette is offered as standard in all Holland casino locations. With American roulette, the house advantage is a lot higher, namely 5.26%. This is because with American roulette you will find an extra number on the roulette wheel, namely the double 0.

Many players still choose the American roulette variant, while your chance of winning is really a lot smaller. We therefore recommend that you never choose this roulette variant.

Live roulette

For the ultimate online roulette experience, you should play roulette in the live casino. At all online casinos that we promote you have the option to play live roulette. There is then played with real dealers who guide the game, as you might be used to from the regular casino. It is necessary to have a player account with money on it. It is not possible to play live roulette for free.

In live roulette, the croupier will guide the game. The croupier will spin the roulette wheel and spin the roulette ball into the wheel. Just like in the real casino, the croupier will indicate when no more bets are allowed. Via the live chat that is present you can ask questions, or just have a nice chat.

Roulette strategies

There are several roulette strategies available on the internet. Think of the Martingale strategy, the D’alembert strategy or the Fibonacci strategy. We at OnlineCasinoTijger.nl would like to point out that none of these strategies increase your chances of winning! It makes little sense to apply such a strategy.
