Roulette 

There are two types of roulette wheels: the American double-zero wheel and the European single-zero wheel. The casino has an edge of 5.26 percent on the double zero wheel and an edge of 2.70 on the single-zero wheel. The players will be given a certain amount of time to place as few or as many bets as they desire. The dealer will then spin the ball. At a certain moment the dealer will announce: “No more bets” at which time no more bets may be placed. As the ball finishes its spin and descends into the pockets, the dealer will announce the winning number and its color. He will put a special marker on the winning number. The dealer will collect all the losing bets and then pay off all the winning bets. The dealer will then remove the marker and the procedure begins all over again.
