There are nine different bets you can make on a Roulette table; six are known as inside bets and three are outside bets. You can, of course, make more than one bet in other sections of the table. With all bets and payouts, you get to keep your stake if you win so if, for example, you win 35 times your stake, your original bet is on top of that. The names of these bets at French-speaking casinos are in brackets.

Straight up
You can bet on any number on the table by placing a chip on it including 0 (and 00). If you win you get 35 times your stake.

(Numéro plein)

Split bet
A bet can be placed on two adjacent numbers by placing a chip on the line between them. If the ball lands on either number, you win. If you want to bet on two numbers but are sure you want to bet on number 5 you can bet on 2-5, 4-5, 5-6 and 5-8. If you win on any of the numbers, you get 17 times your stake.

(A cheval)

Street bet
A bet can be made on any three numbers in a row across the table by placing a chip on the outer line of that row. If the ball lands on any of the three numbers, the pay-out is 11 times your stake.

(Transversale plein)

Street bet with zero
Your chips are placed on the line between the zero and 1-2 or 2-3. This means you cover 0-1-2 or 0-2-3. If you win the pay-out is the same as with a regular street bet, i.e. 11 times your stake.

(Transversale plein avec zéro)

Corner bet
Betting on any four adjacent numbers is possible by placing the chip on the corner where all four numbers meet. If you win on any of these numbers you get 8 times your stake.

(Carré)

Corner bet with zero
This bet is roughly the same as a street bet with zero. You place your chips on the outer line of the zero box. As you cover 4 numbers the pay-out is the same as with a corner bet, i.e. 8 times your stake.

(Carré avec zéro)

Line bet
A line bet is a double street bet covering six numbers. The winning payout is 5 times the stake.

(Sixain)

Dozen bet
Outside the number boxes there are three boxes marked ‘1st 12’, ‘2nd 12’ or ‘3rd 12’. They cover the numbers 1-12, 13-24, and 25-36. Placing chips on any of these boxes means you cover twelve numbers, which has a pay-out of 2 times your stake.

(Douzaine)

Column bet
At the base of the three columns there are three boxes. If you put your bet in any of these boxes you will cover the column above the box. You thus cover 12 numbers and get 2 times your stake if you win.

(Colonne)

Outside chances
On the outside perimeter of the table there are six boxes. Bets on these boxes pay even money. If you bet SEK 100 and win you get SEK 100 on top of your stake. The boxes are: RED or BLACK (pay-off on red or black), ODD or EVEN (pay-off on odd or even) and LOW or HIGH (pay-off on numbers 1-18 or 19-36). Different casinos have different rules for when the Zero or Double Zero comes up. Some casinos give you half your stake back. Be sure to check the rules at the casino before you start playing.
