Roulette Rules
 Roulette is a game that originated in France in the 17th century, and has easily become one of the most popular games at the casino because it’s simple to play and the rules of roulette are easy to learn and understand.
There are two different types of roulette, but both share the same rules. The only difference between American Roulette and European Roulette is that American Roulette uses a 0 and a 00 where European Roulette only uses a single 0. This makes the odds of European Roueltte a lot better for players.
