Many roulette players underestimate the importance of the odds for every type of bet to be successful. It is very important to know what our chances to win/lose are because this way you will know what you risk, when to risk and what you are going to win/lose as a result. Here, in this section, we you will find what the chance for every bet to be successful, in both American and European roulette, is. As you will see for yourself, your chances on the European version of the game are better than those on the American and that’s why we recommend to all our visitors to play European roulette only. The additional green sector (“00“) that the American has got, raises the casino edge substantially.
