The origins of roulette
To trace the origins of the game of roulette, we have to go back in time to the 17th century in Italy. Then known as biribi or hoca, the popular game of chance would reach the salons of the bourgeoisie and the French nobility only a century later. Roulette did not yet appear under the definitive aspect that we know today. Indeed, at that time, the players bet on the place where the ball will stop whose movement is initiated by the cylinder. But the red and black numbers only appeared at the end of the 18th century. It consists of 36 numbers, a square with a zero and a square with a double zero.
It was not until 1842 that the brothers François and Louis Blanc improved the game. To optimize the player's luck, they removed the double zero box and kept only the single zero. The game of chance expands throughout Europe and across the Atlantic.
Roulette became really popular in the 19th century, thanks to the Principality of Monaco. Indeed, Charles III of Monaco legalized gambling on the Rock and encouraged the Blanc brothers to open a casino in 1860. The game of roulette was introduced there. From then on, roulette became increasingly popular.

Indeed, the game unveils two golden colored slots dedicated to the Gem Bet. So, instead of the traditional European Roulette 0, the Gem Bet occupies two spaces on the Roulette wheel (in place of the 0 and opposite it). If the ball lands on one of the slots, one in the shape of a diamond, the other in the shape of a ruby, it triggers a secondary wheel that multiplies the winnings.

How to play roulette?
For the sake of practicality and in order to adapt our discourse to potentially novice players, we will explain here the traditional rules of the game of roulette, that is to say those of European roulette.
The rules of roulette
The rules of roulette are simple to understand and are based on chance and probability. There are 37 numbers on the roulette wheel, divided into three distinct areas: the neighbors of zero (17 numbers), the thirds of the cylinder (12 numbers) and the orphans (8 numbers). When betting, each player places his or her chips on the number of his or her choice or on a category of numbers. It is also possible to bet on the color or on an odd or even number. The dealer spins the wheel after the bets are validated. If the ball lands on your number selection, you win! Make the right choice and win the GAMRFIRST crown!
Inside and outside bets in roulette
Regardless of which roulette variant you play, you need to know the distinction between inside and outside bets. Generally, inside bets are more difficult to win, but they are more lucrative because they have a better payout rate. This can be a bet on:
- a full number;
- a split bet (Cheval) : a bet on adjacent numbers;
- a full cross: a bet on the three numbers in the same horizontal line;
- a carr (Corner bet) : a bet on four numbers in a square on the carpet;
- single cross: bet on six numbers arranged in two horizontal lines
- Dozen: bet on 12 numbers;
- Column: bet on one of the three columns on the carpet.
Outside bets have a higher probability of winning. However, the payout rate is lower than for inside bets. For this type of bet, you should bet on:
- Red or black numbers
- odd or even numbers
- Miss or pass. The miss is a bet that refers to the first 18 numbers on the carpet (between 1 and 18). Pass refers to the last 18 numbers on the table (19 to 36).
Call games (Call Bets)
Call games are available in all online roulette games and depend on the roulette variant you are playing. Call bets invite you to bet on winning combinations based on certain categories of numbers, as well as their placement on the cylinder. Advertised gaming allows you to bet on:
- The 0 game. The bet is on 12, 35, 3, 26, 0, 32 and 15. To make this bet, you will need to place 3 straddle bets and 1 full number bet, for a total of four chips.
- Neighboring zeros. You will need a total of 8 chips.
- One-third of the cylinder is 27, 13, 36, 11, 30, 8, 23, 10, 5, 24, 16 and 33, so you will need to place 6 straddle bets for a total of 6 chips
- Orphans is a bet on 1, 20, 14, 31, 9, 17, 34 and 6. You will need to place 4 straddle bets plus a full number bet for a total of 5 chips.
