This combination of opposing spins ensures that the croupier has no control over the outcome. Indeed, it’s virtually impossible to 2️⃣ predict where the ball is going to stop because the speed and force of each spin will always be slightly 2️⃣ different.
Once the ball comes to a stop, the number it lands on will determine whether you’re a winner or not. 2️⃣ To show you want we mean, let’s run through a quick scenario:
You walk up to a European roulette table and 2️⃣ place three chips on the following: 12, Red and 3rd 12. At this point, your bets will have covered the 2️⃣ following number of options 12 = one number, Red = 18 numbers, 3rd 12 = 12 numbers. The wheel is 2️⃣ spun, and the croupier calls time. This means the ball is about to be spun and your bets are locked 2️⃣ on the roulette board. Eventually, the ball stops on the number 34. Because 34 is a red number located in 2️⃣ the 3rd 12 section of the board, two of your bets have won. If we take the same scenario but 2️⃣ the ball stops on 13, you’d lose because this number isn’t 12, is black and is in the 2nd 12 2️⃣ section of the roulette table.
That, in a nutshell, is how roulette works. The reason it’s become popular with players of 2️⃣ all skill levels is that you can be as general or specific as you like. For those that want high 2️⃣ returns, you can bet on individual numbers. For those that prefer to win more frequently, outside bets are better.
