Roulette, or ‘little wheel in French’, is one of the most popular casino games in the world. It has a glamorous reputation, which has no doubt been aided by its appearance in film and TV. The game has long been a favourite in bricks and mortar casinos, but now, with the rise of online casinos, online roulette is proving to be a real match for its land-based counterparts. In India and elsewhere, online roulette is enjoying a surge in popularity, and it’s easy to see why. An entertaining mix of fun and strategy, players no longer need to walk into a real casino to play this enigmatic game.
It’s difficult to pin down the exact origins of the game, but most historians agree it’s likely to have been invented in 17th century France by the French mathematician Blaise Pascal. In his attempts to create a perpetual motion machine, it would appear he instead ended up building what would become one of the world’s most popular casino games. Today, you’ll find roulette in practically every land-based casino, and more recently in online casinos in the form of online roulette and live roulette.
There are now hundreds of varieties of this classic table game available, but the basic roulette wheel and its functions have pretty much remained the same over the years. Online roulette, as with the original version, is a game of chance with numbered pockets totalling 37 (European) or 38 (America). A ball is dropped into the spinning wheel and whichever pocket it lands in will be the winning number/colour. At its core, roulette is actually a very straightforward game, and the more you play it, the more it makes sense.
The key to roulette, and improving your winning chances, is in understanding the odds and how to play them. Once you’ve got to grips with the basics, it’s worth your while learning about the various roulette strategies. The Fibonacci strategy, Martingale strategy, James Bond strategy, and d’Alembert strategy can all boost your winning prospects. For now, though, let's take a look at the fundamentals of online roulette first.
For those of you who are new to this exciting casino game, we’ve put together a brief explanation of how to play roulette. So, read on and get the ball rolling here at PlayFrank Online Casino India.
Firstly, before the game can begin, players must place their bets on the roulette table. A variety of bet types can be made, including on red or black, even or odd, a single number, or a combination of numbers. As long as the ball has not yet been dropped into the wheel, players can continue placing bets.
When all bets are in, the ball is then spun by the dealer on the outside rim of the roulette wheel. From here on it’s all down to chance. Once the ball lands in one of the roulette wheel pockets, wins can be calculated, paid out and a new round can then begin.
With so many versions of online roulette now available for players in India, it can be hard to know which ones to play, particularly if you’re a beginner. That’s why it’s a good idea to try out the free edition of a roulette game first. Decide if you like it before you start betting real money.
We tend to refer to all roulette games found in online casinos as online roulette, but in truth online roulette and live roulette are distinct from one another.
Online roulette is perfect for players of all experience levels but is particularly well suited to beginners. With no live dealer, online roulette is run entirely by software, which helps to keep the gameplay as straightforward as possible.
Live roulette is streamed in real-time and features a live dealer that players can interact with. It’s a great option for the more experienced or high-rolling player. You get to enjoy the atmosphere of a real casino from the comfort of home, and you also have the opportunity to place higher bets at the VIP roulette tables.
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced roulette player, there’s something to suit everyone here at PlayFrank Online Casino India. Head over to the table games and live casino lobbies to explore your roulette options.
One of the advantages of roulette is that, statistically, your odds of winning are higher than in many other forms of betting - horse racing being a notable example.
Those odds will, however, vary depending on the version of roulette you happen to be playing. At PlayFrank, players in India can access all the classics, including French, European and American Roulette, as well as the game’s many variants. Once you’ve registered with us, all the fantastic online roulette and live roulette games we offer will be available for you to play in free-play or real-money mode.
European Online Roulette is played on a 37-pocket wheel of alternating red and black-coloured pockets and a single green pocket numbered zero. There are three wagering editions available at PlayFrank: low limit (₹5 - ₹250), normal limit (₹50 - ₹2,000), and high limit (₹1,250 - ₹25,000).
The French version of roulette features inside bets, outside bets, favourite bets and special bets. Played on a single, 37-pocket wheel, French Roulette has the half-back rule, where a player will get half their bet back if the ball lands on zero and they have made an even bet. There are three wagering editions available: low limit (₹5 - ₹250), normal limit (₹50 - ₹2,000), and high (₹1,250 - ₹25,000).
The American Roulette wheel has two green-coloured pockets rather than just the one we see on the European and French wheels. The second green pocket is marked with two zeros. As with the other two versions, there are three wagering editions available at PlayFrank: low limit (₹5 - ₹250), normal limit (₹50 - ₹2,000), and high limit (₹1,250 - ₹25,000).
Indian regulation requires that all online roulette wheels are entirely random and fair. Therefore, all reputable software providers operating in India us a Random Number Generator (RNG). This ensures that the outcome of an online roulette wheel cannot be manipulated or predicted.
Few online games offer the same level of excitement and anticipation as online roulette. Watching the wheel spin, wondering where the ball will land. It’s no wonder roulette has become so popular worldwide. If you’re ready to join the fun and take a spin on a game of online roulette, then sign up with PlayFrank Online Casino India today.
