Live Dealer Roulette

Live Dealer Roulette – What Makes It so Popular?

There are plenty of reasons why a game, especially real money games become an internet sensation. The game could be affordable and very easy to play. The rate at which it pays out could be incredible. Or better yet, it could just be a craze like the one we witnessed on Pokémon Go.

Live Roulette is everything else described above, besides the last part. This game has a very high RTP of 98.65% and has for a long time been rewarding players at the roulette table. There’s, for example, the story of Ashley Revell, who gambled his entire life savings on roulette, won and founded the Poker UTD Company. He wasn’t, however, lucky enough to manage the company well, and it finally went out of business in 2012.

Playing Live Roulette

To play live roulette online, you need to ensure that you have a stable internet connection and a device which you can use to access the online casino website. You’ll also be required to visit a reputable online casino that offers this game.

**Take note unlike the software based game you cannot play Live Dealer Roulette for free as you need to wager real money when playing. This means that you have to have a real money account when playing.

Objective of the Game

The objective is as simple as correctly predicting the exact number slot, colour or region that the ball will land on once the wheel comes to a stop. Correctly predicting this ensures that you are paid off at odds of 35:1, meaning for every €1 you wager, you’ll be awarded an extra €35.

The Gameplay

Once you have decided the online casino you want to play from, you’ll now be required to start playing. The croupier spins the wheel and immediately throws the ball against the spinning wheel. This means that the ball will be moving in the opposite direction. Immediately the ball has been thrown, you’ll be required to place your bet right until the croupier announces ‘No More Bets!’ After this, you cannot place any other.

The bets that you can place as the wheel spins include the following:

• Number Bets – Involves betting on the exact number that will be shown as the result
• Colour Bets – Involves betting on the exact colour that will be shown as the result
• Odd/Even Bets – Involves betting on if the number will be odd/even
• Group Bets – This involves betting on a group of numbers as shown on the roulette table
• Other special bets – This mainly make up the inside bets, and they include the split, straight up, trio, four number, street, and dozen bets.

The Outcome

The outcome of the bets is determined once the ball stops. As already mentioned, this is a straightforward game and you win if your prediction for the ball turns out to be correct. Once all winnings bets are paid collected, the cycle starts all over again.
