The European Roulette

The European roulette , has a single zero meaning that it has thirty seven compartments numbered in sequence 1 to 36. This implies that the ball can fall on any compartment. It has odds of 36:1 with payout being 35:1 and an advantage to the casino of 2.7%. To make the game interesting by improving the odds against the house, there are 'en prison' and 'larpartage' rules. If the ball lands on the 0 slot in the spin, 'larpartage' rule allows the player to receive half their bet.
