Roulette is a table game in which a ball lands in a numbered pocket. Players choose from inside bets on specific numbers or groups and outside bets on broader outcomes. The table rules explain the wheel and payout structure.
Inside bets cover one number or a small group on the layout. Outside bets include options such as red or black, odd or even, and number ranges. The exact bet areas and payouts are shown on the table's information panel.

Wheel variants
Roulette versions can differ in wheel layout and special rules. The number of zero pockets and rules for certain even-money bets affect the game's paytable. Check the specific table rather than relying on a generic description.
