Live Roulette Guide

Live roulette brings a physical roulette wheel and a real dealer to your screen through a video stream. You place bets using a digital table layout, then watch the dealer spin the wheel. This Crickso guide explains the basics before you join a table.

How Live Roulette Works

Each round begins with a betting window. While the timer runs, players select their stakes and place chips on their chosen numbers or betting areas.

Once betting closes, no further bets are accepted. The winning number is determined by the pocket where the ball comes to rest. The system displays the result and settles bets according to the table’s payout rules.

Understanding Roulette Bet Types

Roulette offers two main betting categories:

• Inside bets: Cover individual numbers or small groups, including straight-up, split, street and corner bets. These offer higher payouts but cover fewer outcomes.
• Outside bets: Cover larger groups, such as red or black, odd or even, and high or low. Dozens and columns also fall into this category.

Zero pockets are excluded from standard red-or-black, odd-or-even and high-or-low bets. Check the table rules for any exceptions.

Check the Wheel and Table Rules

European roulette typically uses a single-zero wheel, while American roulette generally includes both zero and double zero. The wheel format affects the odds, so identify the version before placing a bet.

Some tables include special rules or modified payouts. Read the game instructions instead of assuming every live roulette table works identically. Also check minimum stakes, maximum limits and any restrictions on individual bets.

Keep Your Play Within Limits

Choose a fixed entertainment budget and decide how long your session will last. Avoid raising your stakes to recover losses.

Previous spins do not predict the next result. A sequence of red numbers does not make black due to appear, and betting systems cannot remove the house edge.
