Play now!← Back to Rules
The goal and rules in French Roulette do not differ much from those used in other types of roulette. The bet is placed on a particular number, colour or group of numbers to win. The wheel has 37 number pockets as it is with the European variant. The number pockets are from 0 to 36, where numbers 1-36 alternate between red and black and the zero has green color.
There is an additional rule in the French variant called “la partage”. According to the rule if the winning number is zero, half of the even-money bets is returned to players. All bets on the betting layout are in French and there are a few additional that distinguish this variant from others, known as “call bets”.
Objective
The objective of the game is to correctly predict the slot in which the ball will land. By predicting the right number, you earn a payoff on your bet. Your winnings will depend on the type of the bet you’ve placed.
