Historial Evidence Of Roulette

The earliest reference to Roulette can be found in France from the 18th century. It was mentioned in Jacques Lablee’s French novel. In the French language, Roulette stands for ‘Little Wheel’ and this game was played for the first time in the French capital, i.e. It’s London. The fundamental structure of the game was close to that of the early days of its birth in the 18th century. There is another reference to this casino game in the new French settlement in Quebec, saying that ‘Roulette’ was prohibited from playing in 1758. Those are the only two historical sources, so it’s almost impossible to estimate the exact time of Roulette’s birth.

Roulette Making Way To Germany

Originally, the Roulette wheel had one and two zero pockets in red and black colors and, in order to reduce the uncertainty among the players, it was changed to green in the mid 1800’s. In 1843, when the game reached Germany, i.e. the German spa town and the casino town of Bad Homburg, a French businessman eliminated one of the zero pockets to give players a better chance at winning, and to match the nearby casinos of the time.

Roulette In USA

In the meantime, Roulette had made her debut in the USA, and the two-fold zero was the most favored location here. It divided the modern version of the Roulette into two types, and hence the name of the single zero became the synonym for the European Roulette and the double zero became the American Roulette. For most US casinos, the double is a familiar name, but the table style has changed a bit.

House Edge Of The Roulette Variations

By the time the 3 Roulette variants were produced. And the most popular of all are the American Roulette with a double zero on the wheel, and the French and European Roulette with a single zero. The American version of Roulette also has a much higher house edge of 5.26% compared to the European and French versions of 2.70%. Before today, European, French, and American roulettes have been played all over the world, and in addition to the minor differences in style, the fundamentals of gambling are almost the same in every casino on this planet.
