Choosing a Wheel for Online Roulette

Posted in Sports on November 19th, 2010 by Sean Armstrong – Be the first to comment

The game of Roulette, which is now a staple of gambling casinos worldwide, began its history as an experiment in motion. In 1655, Blaise Pascal of France, a renowned mathematician, invented the wheel by accident while trying to develop a perpetual motion device. While Pascal’s contribution to the math world are astounding, his famous device far surpasses anything else he ever accomplished in terms of notoriety. To this day, the Roulette wheel is a symbol of money, glamour, luck, and excitement.

Throughout the Roulette wheel’s history, various changes were made. While Pascal came up with the basic design and function, during the middle 19th century, Francois and Louis Blanc later added the green “0″ to increase the house odds. This wheel would later become known as the European model. The wheel was also introduced in the U.S. in the 19th century, and an additional green “00″ was added, again to increase the house odds and make the game considerably harder to beat. While the European wheel had a house edge of around 2-3% on any spin, the American wheel is consistently over 5%. This remains true to this day for online Roulette games as well. And consequently, the European version has thirty-seven betting slots, while the American version has thirty-eight.

The arrangement of the numbers on the Roulette are mostly random, but do retain a specific pattern. The odds of landing on any single category must be equal to any other; that is, even=odd, low=high, and black=red. Zeros are green, and appear on either side of the American wheel. Also important to note: regardless of what number appears at what time, every spin of the wheel is just as likely as any other to yield your desired result. Don’t assume that because a number hasn’t turned up in awhile that it soon will. This is a false premise and will not directly contribute to your odds, or your wins.
