The classic game of roulette is perhaps the most recognizable symbol of casino gambling worldwide. While the basic premise of the game —betting on where the white ball stops— is the same across the globe, not all tables are created equal. The [casino](http://www.we-class.kr/earleneblanco8) world features two main versions that dominate the casino floors: the American and European layouts. Learning the mathematical distinctions between these wheels is the most vital step for any player wanting to maximize their chances of winning.
+The Physical Wheel: The Double Zero Factor +
The primary physical distinction between the two games lies in the layout of the wheel itself. The classic European layout features 37 total pockets: the standard 1-36, and one single green zero. On the other hand, the American Roulette wheel has thirty-eight slots. It has the same numbers 1 through 36, a single zero, and an extra green slot: the 00. This tiny physical difference might seem insignificant to a beginner, but statistically, it ruins the math for the player.
+The Mathematical Consequence on Your Winning Odds +
On the roulette table, the winning odds paid are based as if there were only 36 numbers. For instance, hitting a single number pays out at 35:1, on both the American and European tables. Because the single zero table only has one green slot, the casino's built-in mathematical advantage is a very reasonable 2.70%. But, because the double zero wheel adds a second guaranteed losing pocket for outside bets (the 00) while keeping the exact same 35 to 1 payout, the casino's advantage skyrockets to exactly 5.26%.

To make the difference completely clear, take a look at this simple chart. It shows exactly why smart gamblers always prefer the French or Euro games.

The bottom line is simple, the addition of the double zero is nothing more than a casino trick to extract more money from casual tourists. Whether you are placing bets at a lavish casino in Las Vegas or gambling at an online casino from your smartphone, your first goal should be choosing the 37-pocket wheel. Refusing to play the American version is the easiest and most effective way to massively boost your chances of walking away a winner.
