How to Play Multi-Player French Roulette
The French Roulette game at CASINO-CLUB is based on internationally - accepted odds and game standards. The most obvious difference between French and American roulette is the game table layout and, of course, the odds! While an American roulette table displays both a single zero and a double zero, the French table displays only the single zero. The colors of the numbers on the French roulette table are white, while all numbers except the zero and double zero on an American table are either red or black. The locations of the numbers on the roulette wheels in the French and American games also differ.

The Roulette game at Casino Club is based on French Single Zero roulette and follows standard "Las Vegas Strip" rules. An ivory ball circles in the rotating roulette wheel that consists of 36 numbers plus 0. Eventually, the ball stops randomly on one of the 37 random numbers.
The player odds in French roulette are much, much better than the odds in American roulette! Not only does the French game have just one zero, but players loose only 50% of their even-money wagers if the wheel stops on zero! This is known as the "La Partage" rule.

French Roulette Bet Types & Explanations
Straight Up
A chip can be wagered on any individual number, including zero (0). The chip is placed directly on the individual number.
Split Bet
A chip can be wagered on two adjacent numbers by placing the chip on the line dividing the two numbers. A chip can also be placed on the line dividing 0 & 1, 2 & 0, and 0 & 3.
Street Bet
Place your chips at the end of any row of numbers. A street bet covers three numbers.
Corner Bet
Corner bets cover four numbers. Place the chip on the cross where the four numbers intersect. You may also wager on 0, 1, 2, 3 by placing the chip on the upper right boundary line of the roulette table between 0 and 3.
Line Bet
A line bet covers two street bets (i.e. the six different numbers in two rows of three numbers. For example: 4,5,6 + 7,8,9). Place the chip on the closest boundary line of the roulette table where it is intersected by the line dividing the two rows.
Announce Bet
Announces are call bets in French roulette. There are several types. Voisins, orphelins, and tiers divide the wheel into four areas. Finals are numbers ending with the same digit, and split finals are pairs of numbers ending with the same digits.
Neighbour Bets
Neighbor bets cover numbers located next to each other on the roulette wheel.
For example, if you wanted to wager on the number 25 plus the number immediately
to the left and the number immediately to the right of 25 on the roulette wheel,
you would call a 1-number neighbor bet on 25 that includes the numbers 2, 25,
and 17.
Column Outside Bets
There are three boxes on the lower end of the table. By placing your chip in one of these boxes, you mark all twelve numbers above it (excluding 0).
Dozen Outside Bets In American roulette, the table includes boxes labeled 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. The corresponding boxes on the French roulette table are found in two areas and are labeled 12P (1st dozen), 12M (2nd dozen), and 12D (3rd dozen).
Red/Black; Even/Odd; Low/High Outside Bets
A bet placed in one of the boxes on the either side of the table covers half of the numbers on the roulette table (excluding zero). Each box covers 18 numbers.
When zero (0) is the winning number, all even money bets, i.e. Rouge/Noir (red/black), Pair/Impair (even/odd) and Manque/Passe (1-18/19-36) loose half of their value.
Single Zero or Double Zero Rule Roulette
When the ball lands on the single "zero" or "double zero", wagers on red, black, odd, even, 1 to 18, and 19 to 36 are not entirely lost. Instead, each player having made such a bet will lose only half of the original amount bet. For example, if a player places a bet of $10 on red and a double zero is rolled, the player will lose $5 and be able to remove the other $5 from the table.
