Slot Madness
VIP European Roulette
Premise:
European Roulette is
played by spinning a small ball on a round
wheel with thirty-seven numbered slots. When the wheel stops, the ball
comes to rest in one of these slots. The object of European 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 right-hand corner of the screen. Select
the amount you would like to wager on a given roll(s) 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.
You can spin the roulette wheel by pressing the "Spin" button
in the bottom left-hand 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 number
is '0'.
The "Pass" button may be used to spin the wheel without putting a bet
on the table.
You can place eight
different kinds of bets on the VIP European
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 five types of bets 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). |

Bet |
Place
your chips on the line between any two numbers.
0-1, 0-2, 0-3 combinations not allowed. |
| Street
Bet |

numbers. |
| Corner
Bet |

your chips at the corner where four numbers meet. All four numbers are
covered. |
| 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 at the end of the columns covers all the
numbers in that column, a total of twelve. (The zero is not covered by
any of the columns). |
| Dozen
Bet |
Placing
a chip in the box marked 12P covers numbers 1 to 12, 12M covers numbers
13 to 24, 12D covers numbers 25 to 36. |
Red/Black,
Even/Odd,
Low/High
|
A
chip placed in one of these six boxes covers
the half of the board described in that box. (The zero is not covered
by any of these boxes.) Each box covers eighteen numbers. Low covers
numbers 1 to 18. High covers numbers 19 to 36. |
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.
Zero Rule
One rule modification
is introduced with this VIP version of
European Roulette and it provides more favourable odds to the player
than the standard version of European Roulette.
Bets on Red, Black, Odd, Even, High, Low will have a "1/2"
chip placed on top of them if a zero is rolled to signify that half of
the bet is returned to the player. In the standard version of European
Roulette wagers on red, black, even, odd, low, and high shall be lost
if the roulette ball comes to rest in the compartment marked zero (0).
