Roulette
Take your seat at the table and get ready for the wheel to spin. Roulette is one of the most popular casino games for a reason – its simplicity is something that appeals to a range of players. Simply place your bets from the comfort of your home, watch the wheel spin and see where the ball lands.
How do you play Roulette?
Playing Roulette is very simple. In essence you’re betting on where the ball will land when the wheel stops spinning. Although it might appear straightforward, there are ways to add complexity, which is why the payout odds change depending on the bet. Thankfully, you can choose a bet type that suits your playing style.
For example, an Odd or Even bet essentially splits the table in two from a wagering perspective. The ball lands on an odd or even number, and if that’s what you have bet on, you’ll collect your winnings. Once you’ve chosen your stake, all that’s left to do is pick your bet and watch the wheel do its thing.
This isn’t the only type of Roulette game available at PokerStars. If you want to see what else is available, check out our collection of online Roulette options.
What are the different bets in Roulette?
Roulette is similar to the traditional variants of the game, so the available bets are the types you’ve probably heard of before. They are classed as outside and inside bets. Here are a couple of examples of both:
Outside bets
• Odd or Even
• Red or Black
• High or Low
• Column
Inside bets
• Corner
• Street
• Split
• Straight
Every bet type has its own payout, so it’s important to understand the odds before confirming your wager.
What are the odds in Roulette?
The odds in Roulette depend on the bet. For example, if you place an outside bet, the payout is typically lower than an inside bet because you cover more of the table. So, Odd or Even, Red or Black and High or Low all payout at evens or 1:1. A Column or Dozen bet pays out at odds of 2:1.
Inside bets come with higher risk since you usually bet on a single number, two numbers or three numbers. Therefore, the payouts are greater. A Street wager has odds of 11:1, a Split wager has odds of 17:1 and a Straight bet has odds of 35:1.

Roulette – what makes it so popular?
This is one of the most popular Roulette games that we offer and it’s not hard to understand why. Firstly, it’s not confusing, so you know what you need to do when you sit down at the table and place your bets. Secondly, like all the online casino games on our site, it’s very convenient as there’s no need to go to a regular casino to enjoy a spin of the wheel. Thirdly, this Roulette game only has a single green zero pocket, so the probability of winning can be greater compared with a Roulette game with two zero pockets.
When you combine those factors with the fast-paced nature of the game, it’s not hard to see why so many people love to play Roulette with us.
