The double zero roulette game has multiple ways of betting. At first, these are some inside bets a player could play.

• Straight – Here a player will place his chip/s on a single number. When a player will hit this exact number he will get a 35 return of his bet.
• Split – A split is a bet on two adjoining numbers. The numbers can be adjacent either horizontally or vertically. Players will have to place the chip/s on the line between the two numbers and win 17x their bet should it hit.
• Street – This is a bet on three numbers together on a horizontal line and a player will place the chip/s on the edge of the line of a number at the end of the line. With this bonus, a player will win 11x his stake.
• Corner – This is a bet on four numbers which form a square on the betting area. Players will place their chip/s across the intersection of the four numbers. A player will win 9x her or his bet if successful.
• Top Line – This is a bet which covers the top line of the betting area and includes 0, 00, 1, 2 and 3. If hitting, a player will win 6x it’s stake.

• Red or Black – A player has to place chips on whether the ball will land in either red or black. This is the most popular bet in all of roulette and a player will double his or hers money if he or she wins.
• Odd or Even – Another even money bet – if the ball lands in either zero, the player will lose his or her bet.
• 1/18 or 19/36 – Here players will be betting on the lower or the higher group of numbers, once again paid out at even money.
• Dozen Bets – Here players are betting on whether the ball lands between 1 and 12, 13 and 24 or 25 and 36. If successful players will win 2x their bet.
• Column Bets – Much like the dozens bet, players are betting on a group of twelve numbers and win 2x their stake. The difference is that players are betting on the group of numbers in a column on the betting area.

House edge Double wheel

Roulette Wheel 00 Odds

The casino has a 5.26% edge when playing this variation of the game. In some circumstances players will find a variation of the ‘La Partage’ rule available when playing double zero roulette. This is particularly the case when playing in Atlantic City and on select tables in Las Vegas. This rule comes into effect when the ball lands in either of the zero slots and leads to players receiving half of their stake back. This changes the house edge from 5.26% down to 2.63% which actually gives the house a lower edge than the European game.
