There is no doubt that Roulette carries with it a certain amount of excitement, flair if you will. This image was created by that "Mother of all super spies," James Bond, who, with a beautiful woman nearby, preferred to play this fast-paced game, when not beating the bad guys at Baccarat.Although a game favored by Europeans, Roulette has managed to gather a strong following in North America, most likely for its simplicity and the chance to win big money.Roulette means "little wheel" in French. The invention of the game that we're familiar with today is generally attributed to the French philosopher and mathematician, Blaise Pascal, who is credited with originating the probability theory.But forerunners of Roulette, basically carnival wheel games, were in use throughout Europe, as early as the mid-1500s. What could be easier than that? There are a dozen different bets to be made on a Roulette wheel. If the ball drops into the number 23 pocket, you're paid off at 35-1. These are the bets on red-black, odd-even, and high-low.If you place your chips in the even box and the ball drops into the number 24, you win. If it drops into number 23, you lose. The first 12, second 12 and third 12 all pay 2-1. You can buy in and play with standard casino chips, but each table has its own set of special "wheel chips."Wheel chips, which come in several different colors, are used so that the dealer can distinguish among all the different players' bets on the layout.When you go to exchange your cash, or casino chips, for wheel chips, inform the dealer of the denomination (within the stated betting limits) that you want your chips to be.Say you want each chip to be worth $1. The player next to you might be betting with brown chips worth $5 each, and the player next to him might be using white wheel chips worth $25 apiece.Wheel chips allow for a practice that's unique to Roulette: the co-mingling of different players' bets. If you've got one of those feelings that the next number will be 15 and somebody's already on that number, just pile your wheel chips right on top.Before sitting down to play, take particular note of the table-minimum betting rules. It indicates the lowest wager allowed on any outside bet and the lowest total bet inside.The chip minimum tells you the least amount you can bet inside on a number. In other words, you can bet 50 cents on four different numbers.You are allowed to place bets even while the wheel is spinning, up until the point when the dealer announces, "No more bets." This is the fun part. For excitement purposes, it's better to divide your stake into smaller units (defined by the chip minimum) and spread chips over several numbersinside.Be sure to read the placard that lists the table minimum and chip minimum, then buy your wheel chips from the dealer.You can place your bets anywhere and everywhere on the layout, even on the top of the chips of other players, up until the time the dealer says, "No more bets."Then stand back, relax, and pray that the ball drops into the pocket with your money init.Did you hear the one about the young woman playing Roulette who asked her boyfriend which number she should play.The boyfriend said, "Bet your age."So his girlfriend placed a chip on 23.The ball landed on 29 and the woman fainted.
