What is Roulette Deluxe?

Roulette Deluxe is one of the most popular roulette variants from Playtech. To learn more about the game, and how you could potentially maximize your chances of winning, read on.

How to Play Roulette Deluxe

Roulette Deluxe is a European roulette game. It has a total of 37 numbers including a single green 0 while numbers 1 to 36 are either red or black. Once the round begins, a ball is spun inside the wheel that contains 37 numbered pockets. The aim is to correctly predict which pocket the ball will land on.

Playing Roulette Deluxe is incredibly simple. Before a round starts, players simply place their chips on the relevant positions on the betting area. Once players have placed their bets, they must click on the ‘Spin’ button. This puts the ball into motion on the 3D virtual wheel. Once the ball lands, a close-up of the pocket is highlighted. The player is then paid out accordingly.

Roulette Deluxe has a variety of different betting options. Players can find the standard Inside and Outside Bets. Additionally, the game also has a few other features to make betting even easier.

Inside Bets

In Roulette Deluxe, Inside Bets are wagers within the betting table on the numbers. The bets include:

  • Straight Up – a bet on a single number that pays 35:1
  • Split – a bet on two adjacent numbers that pays 17:1
  • Street – a bet on three numbers in a row that pays 11:1
  • Corner/Four – a bet on four numbers next to each other that pays 8:1
  • Line – a bet on six numbers that covers two streets, paying 5:1

Outside Bets

The Outside Bets in Roulette Deluxe include a variety of wagers that are not on the numbers themselves in the betting area. The bets include:

  • Column/Dozen – a bet on 12 horizontal numbers on the table that pays 2:1
  • Low/High – a bet on the numbers 1-18 or 19-36 that pays 1:1
  • Red/Black – a bet on the red or black numbers that pays 1:1
  • Odd/Even – a bet on the odd or even numbers that pays 1:1

Racetrack Betting Area

The racetrack betting area is one of the many features that make Roulette Deluxe a pleasure to play. The betting area includes:

  • Neighbours – a bet on neighbours either side of a specific number. The neighbours either side can range from 1 to 5, meaning a total of 3 to 11 numbers are covered.
  • Voisins du Zero – a bet on the number that neighbour zero. The betting includes the numbers from 22 to 25 on the roulette wheel. It covers a total of 17 numbers.
  • Tiers – a bet on one third of the table, covering the numbers 27 to 33 on the roulette wheel. This bet covers a total of 12 numbers.
  • Orphelins – a bet on the area that neither the Voisins du Zero or Tiers bet covers. This covers a total of 8 numbers.

Features

In addition to the racetrack betting area, Roulette Deluxe has a number of different features. One of the variants includes the possibility of placing ‘Special Bets’.

Special Bets

Roulette Deluxe has a variety of different betting options for players to place their wagers with. The betting options include:

  • Regular Mode – players place their bets in normal fashion and can also leave a trail of bets if they drag their pointer.
  • All Around – players will place a bet on a single number and all splits and corners around it will have the same bets placed.
  • Lucky Chip – any bet on a single number will also place 9 other bets on random numbers.
  • Lucky Line – a bet on a number will also place 6 additional bets, 3 on each side as a line.
  • Finale Bet – any bet on a single number will also place bets on numbers ending with the same digit. For instance, a bet on 3 will also cover numbers 13, 23 and 33.
  • Favourites Bet – it is possible to click and hold up to four positions as your favourite number to bet on.

Hot & Cold Numbers & History Chart

Another feature in Roulette Deluxe is the Hot and Cold numbers. Hot numbers are those that were hit the most over the previous 100 spins. Cold numbers are the ones that were hit the least times over the last 20 spins. The history chart simply shows the results of previous rounds.

Table Coverage

Those interested in statistics will appreciate the table coverage percentage. This shows what percentage of the wheel they have covered with their bet. The higher the percentage, the greater chance the player has of winning.

A Basic Strategy for Roulette Deluxe

To play Roulette Deluxe successfully, you will increase your chances of winning if you use a basic strategy such as a betting system, which are generally appropriate for use with even money bets. Two of the most popular even money betting systems are.

  • The Martingale – the Martingale is a betting system that requires the player to double their stake after every loss. That way, they can cover their losses and win a small profit.
  • The Reverse Martingale – also known as the ‘Paroli’, this betting system requires players to double their stake after every win. The aim of this system is to maximise potential winnings when hitting a win streak.

To Conclude
