About no zero roulette
No zero roulette: about the game
Roulette, like many table games, is played against the casino. The traditional European roulette wheel has the numbers 1-36, and one zero. This zero belongs to the house (or casino), and is neither red nor black, odds nor evens, and is definitely not a number. As a result, unless you dare put a bet on zero, when the ball lands in the zero pocket everything on the table is lost to the casino.
This is the casino's mathematical advantage in European roulette, resulting in a house edge of 2.7 per cent. Meanwhile in Las Vegas, American roulette evolved to contain two zero pockets on the wheel, so the house edge is higher at 5.26 per cent. However, some casinos have now removed the zeros from their wheels; no zero roulette games have changed everything.
How to play no zero roulette online
As with most online roulette games, when you play no zero roulette you will see a wheel, a board and a selection of chips. Click on a chip of your choice, then on a location on the board to place a bet. Finally, just watch as the prizes roll in; one of the beauties of online no zero roulette is that the amount you have won is automatically calculated and transferred to your account. It's also easy and convenient to play, as many no zero roulette games feature 'double' and 'rebet' buttons.
