If you are somewhat new to the game of roulette or you are just playing the game that you love in a new place you might find that you are playing roulette on a wheel that you are not accustomed to. If you weren’t aware of it before, you should know that there are two different kinds of roulette out there for you to enjoy. The two most commonly enjoyed types of roulette are the American and European variants. The game is played the same way, there is just one not to subtle difference.

The Difference Between the Wheels: Playing Different Variants of Roulette

The only difference between the European and American variations of this game is the number of slots that are in the wheel. If you play roulette in Europe you will find that there are 37 slots on the wheel but if you play in America you will see that there are actually 38 slots on the wheel. While there is a difference in the number of slots, the numbers never go higher than 36 on either wheel. The way that this works is that on the European wheel there are 37 slots that range from zero to 36.

American Roulette: Has two green “0″’s Odd are slightly less that European version.

European Roulette: Has only one green “0″. Slightly better odds than the American version.
