Lesson 2: Inside Bets |
|
|
|
|
|
A roulette table displays the numbers 1 through 36 in twelve horizontal rows and three vertical columns. The first row contains 1-2-3, the second 4-5-6, and so on. This section on the table plus a green section for single and double zeros constitute the inside betting area. There are several different inside bets that can be made. |
|
|
|
|
|
A one-number bet is made by placing chips in the middle of the section displaying that number. This is the highest paying bet in roulette. It is also called a straight-up bet. The bet pays 35 to 1. |
|
|
|
|
|
You can bet on two numbers by placing your chips on the line shared by two adjacent numbers, for instance 1-2 or 1-4. This is called a split bet. The payout for a split bet is 17 to 1. |
|
|
|
|
|
A three-number bet is called a street bet or trio bet. This bet is made by placing your chips on the outside edge of a row, for instance 7-8-9. This bet pays 11 to 1. |
|
|
|
|
|
A four-number bet is made by placing your chips on the corners of a block of four intersecting numbers, for instance 2-3-5-6. This is known as a corner bet. The corner bet pays 8 to 1. |
|
|
|
|
|
You can bet on six numbers by placing your chips on the edge of two adjacent rows, covering the shared corners, for instance 1-2-3-4-5-6. This is known as a line bet. The payout for this bet is 5 to 1. |
|
|
|
|
|
You can also bet on inside numbers in combination with the zero sections. This can result in a five-number bet with a payout of 6 to 1. Betting on single or double zero is the same as betting on any other number. |
