Playing Roulette in Online Casinos

 Roulette is one of the most popular and exciting games the world over. It's a game that most people associate with the rich and famous and when we think of roulette, images are conjured of international playboys pulling up outside a Monte Carlo casino in their Ferraris.

Thanks to the ever obliging online casinos, mere mortals, such as ourselves can join in and play roulette in online casinos.

Roulette is a great game to play and requires absolutely no skill whatsoever to play it. It is a game of chance and despite experts writing books about how it is possible to beat the odds by implementing betting systems and understanding wheel bias (for which we need a PhD in Physics) there is little hope in believing we can beat the house.

The best way to equip ourselves when playing roulette in online casinos is by working out which bets are the best to make and which methods of betting lower the house edge of the online casinos.

The first decision to make is to find online casinos that have the European roulette wheel. In the European wheel there is no 00 slot which you see on American roulette wheels, which lowers the house edge considerably.

The first bet you can make when playing roulette is the straight bet. This entails placing chips on one number. If your number comes up you are paid 35-1 odds, which is a great payout but the chances of this happening is pretty slim.

A good bet to make in online casinos is the even money bet. This bet means you can place your chips on red or black and whichever coloured number comes up you can win or lose. Another way to make the even money bet in online casinos is by placing your money on odd or even numbers or by betting on 1-18 or 19-36. The even money bet gives you a fifty-fifty chance of winning, so whatever amount you wager the casinos will pay out the same amount.

The even money bet doesn't seem like it will make you as much in terms of profit, but this way you have a good chance of winning consistently in online casino.

It is also advisable to stick with one method when you gamble in online casinos. Stick to one colour or one number and that way you will eventually win.

Online casinos offer a free mode of all their games so it is possible to practice before hand. This is a great option as it allows players to become accustomed to the online casinos rules and the player can practice what they want to do in the way of betting.

Roulette is one of the best games on offer in online casinos. The player doesn't need any experience and if you bet sensibly you will find you have some good wins. This will be a real boost to your confidence when playing casino games.
