Roulette is, on the most part a game of chance as opposed to skill. However, when you first visit an online casino and click on "table games" the sight of so many different variations of roulette can be off-putting. What is the difference between European and American roulette? And what are inside and outside bets? These are questions that new players find themselves asking when they sit down at a roulette table. Below, you’ll find the answer to all these questions and more.
Players at a roulette table can place a variety of bets, such as what number the ball will land on, or on what colour it will land. The roulette table is laid out with each number and bet categorised and to either the left or right of the table you can locate the roulette wheel. This is usually red or black coloured and can feature between 37-38 numbers on the wheel. Croupiers collect up all the bets and place them on the corresponding points on the roulette table, and sets the wheel spinning. Eventually, the ball will stop and the colour and number it lands on will determine who the winners are at the table.
Returning to the question we posed at the beginning of this guide, in European roulette, there are 37 numbers on the wheel, which follow this order: 0 - 32 - 15 - 19 - 4 - 21 - 2 - 25 - 17 - 34 - 6 - 27 - 13 - 36 - 11 - 30 - 8 - 23 - 10 - 5 - 24 - 16 - 33 - 1 - 20 - 14 - 31 - 9 - 22 - 18 - 29 - 7 - 28 - 12 - 35 - 3 - 26.
In American roulette, there 2 zeroes, whereas in European roulette there is just 1. The amount of zeroes on a wheel, however unimportant it seems can be integral to your gameplay. If the roulette wheel lands on a "0", then all bets go to the house. If there are two 0's on a wheel, then the house has two more chances of grabbing players’ bets.

Essentially, Inside bets are bets where players select the number the ball will land on, or the range in which the ball will land on. On the other hand, Outside bets are broader bets where the player bets on whether the ball will land on a red or black section, whether the number will be odd or even, dozen bets where you can bet which grouping of 12 the ball will fall into (for example; 1-12, 13-24 or 25-36), or out of which group of 18 the ball will land on (such as low 18 which is 1-18 or high eighteen which is 19-36).
