Racetrack Roulette
Introduction
Racetrack Roulette is a single zero roulette that consists of 36 numbers plus 0. The game is based on French Roulette with exactly the same rules and game logic.
The differences between Racetrack Roulette and other roulette types are the game table layout, the locations of the numbers and the odds.
The player odds in Racetrack Roulette are better since players lose only 50% of their even-money wagers if the wheel stops on zero. This is known as the "La Partage" rule.
How to Play
Use your left mouse button to click on the value of the chip that you wish to wager. Then place the chip/chips on the roulette table by clicking on the desired betting area. You can regret a wagered chip before the game begins by clicking on the wagered chip with your right mouse button. You can also regret all your wagered chips by clicking the CLEAR button. When you have placed your bets, click the SPIN button to start the game round. Click SAME BET to repeat the bet from the previous round.
The Racetrack
The racetrack on the roulette table duplicates the roulette wheel, i.e. the order of numbers is the same. The racetrack offers an alternative way of placing chips on the roulette table. By selecting a chip value and clicking on the fields on the racetrack, chips are placed on the ordinary bet area on the table. The racetrack facilitates neighbour bets. Neighbour bets cover numbers located next to each other on the roulette wheel and thus numbers located next to each other on the racetrack. The racetrack also includes fields for four different announce bets. By selecting a chip value and clicking one of the announce bet fields, a number of chips of the selected value are placed on the ordinary bet area on the table, in accordance with the announce bet made.
