Vegas Roulette Payout
That's right, it's time for Roulette. You won't find a simpler game. Your only decision is how. Roulette payouts are an important part of roulette strategy. They work like this. The odds are stated in the form of x to 1, which means you’ll win x dollars for every dollar you’ve bet. For example, the single number bet offers a payout of 35 to 1. If you win, you’ll get your dollar back plus the $35 for the win. The payout is 5:1, and the odds are 16.22% and 15.79% for European and American Roulette, respectively. Basket, or a five number bet, is available only in American roulette, and allows players to bet on the zero, double zero, 1, 2, and 3. The probability of this bet winning is 13.16%, and the payout – 6:1.
