Online Roulette

At Vulkan Vegas Casino, there are new online roulette games, all of which fully comply with international rules. Better yet, beginners are allowed to start playing free roulette games in the demo mode without the risk of losing their money. There is a myriad of roulette game variations that you can play online, all of them offering you different betting limits and overall experience. Casino roulette is a game of luck that one hardly needs a strategy to increase their odds of winning. All you have to do is simply make your bet and enjoy the wheel spinning to either bring you a win or loss.

Types of Roulette Games and Their Main Features

Roulette casino games come in several kinds, both in land-based and online casinos. Each type has its pros and cons as well as numerous fans among the gamblers. If you would like to know which one suits you best, you are welcome to try out a few quick demo rounds for pure fun until you learn the ropes with each game variant. Here are some of the popular types that you’ll find at Vulkan Vegas Casino:

• European Roulette - This is the most common variant of the “little wheel” game. It features the classic wheel with 37 pockets which are numbered from 0 to 36. This variant has a low house edge, making it appealing to many gamblers. You can play the European roulette free online game in our casino too.
• American Roulette - This one features an additional pocket which is numbered 00. Due to additional zeros, this table game offers a higher house edge and requires using a different betting strategy.
• French Roulette- This variant is actually European roulette, but it is played with additional rules, such as “la partage” and “en prison.”It also has a different playing field which differs in the layout and the numbers, making the odds for a gambler to be higher as compared to the American variant. These rules sometimes refund half of your initial wager if the ball stops on zero and you lose the bet. For this reason, the French variant has the highest RTP and the lowest house edge.
• Live Roulette - This is the latest variation of the roulette wheel game and is extremely popular in online casinos. The main feature of the game is that it is played with a real dealer, while the gameplay is streamed live from a studio. Live roulette can be European, American or French: it all depends on the rules. However, no matter what variant it is, the game is played against a real dealer in real time and with other players.
• Virtual Roulette - Just like the live version, VR (virtual reality) roulette games can be European, American or French. You play them by using VR goggles and special equipment which gives a much more immersive experience.

How to Play Roulette Online

In land-based casinos, the game starts with the dealer: He/she spins the wheel and drops a ball on it. Traditionally, you are allowed to place a bet until the wheel stops (or slows). But when you play roulette online, this is not the case: you place the bet first and then click the “spin” button. As a player, your goal is to predict where the ball will stop.

Whether you play roulette for free or for real, you can bet on a single number, a range of numbers, colours (red/black) or whether the outcome will be an odd or even number. Each of these betting options has different probabilities and payouts. To place a bet, you simply put your chips on top of that option. For example, to place a split bet, which means betting on two numbers at the same time, simply place your chips in the corner where these numbers meet. After that, you just wait for the wheel to stop. If your bet wins, you will get paid according to the paytable, which we share below.

INSIDE BETS
NAME OF THE BET	ODDS	PAYOUT
Straight	2.7%	35:1
Split	5.4%	17:1
Street	8.1%	11:1
Corner	10.8%	8:1
Line	16.2%	5:1

OUTSIDE BETS
NAME OF THE BET	ODDS	PAYOUT
Dozen/Column	32.4%	2:1
Low/High	48.6%	1:1
Red/Black	48.6%	1:1
Odd/Even	48.6%	1:1

Note that this table shows the odds and betting options of European roulette. If you are playing the American variant, the odds will be lower (3% lower on average), and there will be one more betting option called “basket bet” (betting on five numbers). The basket bet pays 6:1 and offers odds of 13.16%, which is a low figure.

In general, your best option will be using outside bets. Low/high, red/black and odd/even are the best bets you can place because they offer the highest odds, though the payout won’t be much bigger than your bet. We do not recommend using a progressive betting strategy (Martingale), which means increasing your bet amount after every loss – use a roulette wheel simulator to practice roulette strategies and see for yourself. Such a roulette strategy can increase the overall bet in a very short time.
