How to Play Roulette Online?

Getting your head around how to play roulette casino games online couldn’t be easier, because each version is similar in terms of fundamental gameplay. To get the ball rolling, you will need to decide on your bet size – in other words, how much are you willing to risk?

If you decide to play American roulette, you will notice there are two zeros – one is an American ‘double zero’, and the other is a standard single. French Roulette sticks with the one zero position found in European roulette. Exclusive to the French version is also the ‘La Partage rule’.

Around the edge, you will see ‘outside bets’ – which includes ‘dozens’, ‘even money’, and ‘columns’ – all of which are seen on European and American roulette. The online roulette ball will whizz around the wheel before landing one of the aforementioned numbers.

Top Roulette Strategies

Whilst we would like to offer you some winning strategies – the truth is when playing online roulette, there are no guarantees of unforetold riches. This is one of the original games of chance, that’s part of what makes it so fun to play.

Each and every time you play roulette, your experience is as random as the next persons. This is thanks to RNG (Random Number Generator) software added to all casino games to ensure fairness and true randomness. 

Even Albert Einstein famously had a go at cheating roulette, deducting that it couldn’t be done – unless one was to steal chips without being seen!

History Of Roulette

The roulette we know and love today was reportedly invented by French mathematician and inventor Blaise Pascal in the 1600s. Roulette means ‘small wheel’ in French and there have been heaps of variations over the centuries, some resembling lotteries, others more like card games.

When European settlers arrived in New Zealand, it’s strongly believed that they brought their fondness of lotteries, horse racing, playing cards and games with them. This led to a mixing pot of indigenous New Zealanders and European newcomers enjoying gambling.

Eventually in 1994 New Zealand’s very first casino ‘Christchurch Casino’ was opened. Offering delighted players the chance to play roulette, pokies, and the money wheel – as well as poker championships. Following the popularization of the internet, the majority of people play roulette online now.
