European Roulette at ceo — a complete guide to betting on the wheel
European Roulette is one of the most recognisable games in a casino. One wheel, one ball, numbers from 0 to 36 — and a range of betting options within that setup. At ceo, you can enjoy this game in both digital and live dealer formats.
How a round works
Understanding the rules of European Roulette makes the game a lot more enjoyable.
A European Roulette table has a wheel with 37 slots numbered 0 to 36. Before the game starts, all players place chips on one or more positions of their choice — this is called a bet. Once bets are placed, the dealer (or the software in the digital version) spins the wheel in one direction and releases a small ball from the opposite direction.
As the wheel gradually slows down, the ball lands in one of the slots. If the number and colour of that slot match any player's bet, that player receives a payout. If not, the bet is lost. Players are then given the opportunity to place new bets for the next round.
On live dealer tables, each round has a set time limit — a "Place Your Bets" message appears, and bets may still be accepted for a short while after the ball starts spinning. Once "No More Bets" is announced, no further changes can be made.
In the digital version, the pace is entirely up to you — hit "Spin" whenever you like and the result is instant.
Bet types and payout rates
Bets in European Roulette are divided into two main categories — Inside Bets (on the individual numbers inside the table) and Outside Bets (on the larger groups outside the table).
| Bet name | Where you bet | Payout | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Straight Up | On a single specific number | 35:1 | Inside |
| Split | On the line between two adjacent numbers | 17:1 | Inside |
| Street | On three numbers in a row | 11:1 | Inside |
| Corner | On the corner shared by four numbers | 8:1 | Inside |
| Line | On six numbers across two rows | 5:1 | Inside |
| Column | On 12 numbers in an entire column | 2:1 | Outside |
| Dozen | 1–12, 13–24 or 25–36 | 2:1 | Outside |
| Red/Black | Any number of red or black colour | 1:1 | Outside |
| Odd/Even | Odd or even numbers | 1:1 | Outside |
| High/Low | 1–18 or 19–36 | 1:1 | Outside |
Keep in mind that if the ball lands on "0", Column, Dozen, Red/Black, Odd/Even, and High/Low bets all lose. This is the main reason the house edge exists. However, a Straight Up bet placed directly on "0" pays out at 35:1.
The house edge — what lies behind the numbers
European Roulette has 37 slots in total (0 through 36), but a winning bet on any single number pays only 35:1. That single "0" slot is what creates the casino's advantage.
European Roulette's approximate house edge — relatively low among casino games.
American Roulette has an additional slot called "00", which roughly doubles the house edge. This is why most people who enjoy roulette choose the European version.
Some European tables have the "La Partage" or "En Prison" rule — where if "0" comes up, half of your 1:1 bet is returned, which effectively brings the house edge down to around 1.35%. The availability of this rule at ceo's live tables depends on which table you choose.
Practical tips for beginners
Roulette is entirely a game of chance — every spin is independent and has no connection to previous results. That said, some practical habits can help you manage your experience at the table.
-
01
Set a budget before you start
Decide how much money you are willing to play with beforehand. Once you reach that limit, end the session — regardless of whether you are winning or losing. -
02
Start with outside bets
Red/Black or Odd/Even bets have close to a 50% chance of winning (excluding 0). These bets are a comfortable place to start. -
03
Keep your bet size small
Bet only a small portion of your total balance on each spin — this gives you the opportunity to play for much longer.
-
04
Don't fall for the "hot numbers" trap
Just because a number has come up several times in recent rounds does not mean it will come up again. Every spin starts fresh. -
05
Avoid doubling your bet after a loss
Strategies like the Martingale can make your bets grow very large after a few consecutive losses, risking hitting the table limit or running out of balance. -
06
Keep a clear head
Increasing your bets out of overconfidence after a winning streak, or out of frustration after consecutive losses — both are harmful in the long run.
