About French Roulette

Live French Roulette by Playtech is based on traditional French Roulette rules and features a single-zero French Roulette wheel. The French Roulette table comes with a slightly different table layout compared to other roulette variants, and it includes either the La Partage rule or En Prison rule for even money bets. These rules reduce the house edge from 2.70% to 1.35%, making this roulette version one of the lowest house edge options among all roulette games

Players can place roulette bets such as Red/Black odd, Odd/Even, Low/High, or wager on specific consecutive numbers before the dealer spins the wheel in real time. The live dealer roulette format gives the feel of a brick and mortar casino while offering the convenience of mobile play. 

Compared to European Roulette or American Roulette, Live French Roulette focuses on fairer odds for even money bets. With professional live dealers and multiple roulette table designs, it feels like stepping up to a physical table but in a live casino environment.

Theme and Appearance

French Roulette by Playtech comes with a modern appearance while also keeping the range of classic features and rules that players would expect. It's hosted inside of a fashionable studio, with everything else being kept as minimal and as straightforward as possible. 

Graphics, Sounds, and Animations

The visuals in French Roulette by Playtech are broadcast directly to players' screens using the latest technology to ensure a smooth overall experience with crisp graphics. In terms of audio, sound effects for placing chips can be heard, with the main sound coming from the live host as they interact with different players at the table. 

Roulette Wheel and Table Layout

The roulette wheel in this version has 37 numbered pockets; numbers 1 to 36 plus a single zero. This single-zero French Roulette wheel feature is what gives French Roulette rules their advantage over American wheels with a double zero, lowering the house edge significantly. 

As for the table, it features a layout with all standard bet types being clearly labelled, including inside bets, outside bets, dozens, columns, and even-money bets. 

Another unique aspect of the French Roulette table is that call bets, like Tiers du Cylinder and Du Cylindre are highlighted. These allow players to place bets on sections of adjacent numbers that appear across the wheel.

Regardless of what type of roulette bets you like to place, the appearance of the table and clear layout makes it easy to see exactly where your chips can be placed. 

Roulette Bets and Payouts

The payouts in French Roulette depend on the type of place you bet. Bets that cover more numbers will have a lower payout rate, while wagers that cover less numbers will have higher potential winnings, as shown in the table below:

Bet

Payout Rate

Straight Up Bet

35 to 1

It's also important to quickly mention the La Partage and En Prison rules when covering payouts, as these can change the potential payouts of the game:

La Partage Rule

Half of your stake size on even money bets will be returned to you, should the ball land in the zero pocket. 

En Prison Rule

Again, this applies when you have an even money bet and the ball lands in the zero pocket. In this instance, your bet will be locked in place for the upcoming spin, giving players another chance with the same wager.

Tips and Tricks

  • Even money bets such as red or black and high or low, come with a much lower house edge (Approximately 1.35% instead of 2.70%), so placing these can give players the best odds.
