our review).
Roulette
(single player)
Rule Authority:
InterCasino Roulette is played with Atlantic City Gaming rules and
an American Roulette wheel with 36 numbers plus 0 and 00.
Authority: New Jersey Casino Control Commission. Rule Exceptions:
None.
Premise:
The game of Roulette is played by spinning a small ball on a round
wheel with thirty-eight numbered slots. When the wheel stops, the
ball comes to rest in one of these slots. The object of Roulette
is to correctly predict the slot in which the ball will land. By
predicting the right number, you earn a payoff on your bet. The
size of the payoff depends on how the bet was placed.
How to Play:
Betting: Your chips are stacked by denomination ($1, $5,
$25, $100, $500) at the bottom of the screen above the game menu.
Select the amount you would like to wager on a given hand by clicking
the left mouse button on the chip of that denomination. This activates
that specific chip denomination. Next, place your bet on the Roulette
table by clicking on a bet field. To specify a bet that is not equal
to an existing chip denomination, simply click on another chip denomination
after placing your previous chip on the table. For example, to bet
$30, click on the $25 chip and place it on the table then click
on the $5 chip and place it on top of the $25 chip. You may repeat
your last bet by simply hitting the "0" button of your numeric keyboard.
Other numeric keyboard shortcuts are summarized below.
Depending on where you choose to place your chips, you can "cover"
(bet on) anywhere from one to eighteen numbers with a single bet.
If you place a wager that is lower than the minimum table bet limit,
a messagebox will be displayed asking you to adjust your bet amount.
You can spin the roulette wheel by pressing the "SPIN" button in
the bottom left corner of the screen or by clicking on the roulette
wheel. The history of the previous winning numbers is displayed
in a table above the Game Menu. There are three different colored
numbers in the history table. The yellow colored numbers mean that
they belong to the black set of numbers. The red colored numbers
mean they belong to the red set of numbers and the green colored
numbers are either '0' or '00'. The "PASS" button may be used to
spin the wheel without putting a bet on the table.
You can place nine different kinds of bets on the Roulette table.
Each type of bet covers a certain range of numbers, and each type
has its own payoff rate. The short lines of three numbers each are
called rows on the board, while the longer lines, each holding twelve,
are called columns. The first six types of bet are all made on the
numbered space or on the lines between them and are called inside
bets, while the last three types are made on the special boxes below
and to the right of the board and are called outside bets.
These bets are tabulated below:
| Bet
Type |
Explanation |
| Straight
Up |
Place
your chips directly on any single number (including zero and
double-zero). |
| Split
Bet |
Place
your chips on the line between any two numbers. |
| Street
Bet |
Place
your chips at the end of any row of numbers. A street bet covers
three numbers. |
| Corner
Bet |
Place
your chips at the corner where four numbers meet. All four numbers
are covered. |
| Five
Bet |
This
bet can be made in only one place and covers five numbers: zero,
double zero, one, two and three. Place your chips at the end
of the row between the numbers 00 and 3. |
| Line
Bet |
Place
your chips at the end of two rows at the intersection between
them. A line bet covers all the numbers in either row, for a
total of six. |
| Column
Bet |
Placing
a chip in one of the boxes marked "2 to 1" at the end of the
columns covers all the numbers in that column, a total of twelve.
(Neither the zero nor the double zero are covered by any of
the columns). |
| Dozen
Bet |
Placing
a chip in one of the three boxes marked "1st 12," "2nd 12,"
or "3rd 12" covers those twelve numbers. |
| Red/Black,
Even/Odd, 1 to 18/19 to 36 |
A
chip placed in one of the six boxes at the bottom of the board
covers the half of the board described in that box. (The zero
and double zero are not covered by any of these boxes.) Each
box covers eighteen numbers. |
Once a spin is complete, the winning number will be noted on the table
with a marker. Winning bets will have a "W" chip placed on top of
them. Bets on red, black, odd, even, 1 to 18, and 19 to 36 will have
a "1/2" chip placed on top of them if a zero or double-zero is rolled
to signify that half of the bet is returned according to the zero
and double-zero rule.
Zero or Double Zero rule:
When the ball lands on "zero" or "double zero", wagers on red, black,
odd, even, 1 to 18, and 19 to 36 are not entirely lost. Instead, each
player having made such a bet will lose only half of the original
amount bet. For example, if a player places a bet of $10 on red and
a double zero is rolled, the player will lose $5 and be able to remove
the other $5 from the table.

Betting Limits:
$5 minimum bet (can be spread out on the table - i.e. 5 $1 bets).
$500 maximum bet.
Setting your table bet limit:
You may also set your table bet limit below the maximum specified
limit by selecting Bet Options from the Game Menu. The Modify Table
Bet Limit window will appear on the screen. To reduce your maximum
table bet limit type in the new limit in the appropriate box and confirm
it by typing your PIN in the box below. Click on the OK button to
complete the update. Please be aware that you can modify your table
bet limit no more than once per week (Friday 12:00 AM EST) and that
using the Modify Table Bet Limit function affects the bet limit for
all games and not just the game that you are currently playing.
