There are two types of games in a traditional casino – games of chance and games of skill.
Games such as roulette, craps, slot machines and the ‘wheel of fortune’ are all games of chance, They depend on random outcomes and require no real skill from the player. The odds are always the same no matter how you play and the last throw or spin does not affect the following throw or spin.
Roulette
Originating in France, this literally means ‘small toothed wheel’ and is a fast-paced, simple and exciting game that can bring great wins… or great losses. After all bets are placed, the dealer spins the wheel in one direction and the ball in the other. Winning bets are, of course, determined by where the ball rests. The winning number is marked by the dealer, winning bets are paid and the losing bets are collected. More info on casino roulette games at www.onlineroulette.org.uk!
