Must-Know Roulette Terms
Before you start playing, get familiar with these six terms. Understanding them will save you time once you're at the roulette table — whether virtual or live.
Bets placed directly on a specific number or a small group of numbers within the roulette table grid. Payouts are higher but the probability of winning is lower. For example, a straight up bet on a single number pays 35:1.
Bets placed on broader number categories — such as red/black, odd/even, or the ranges 1–18/19–36. The odds of winning are higher, but payouts are lower (typically 1:1 or 2:1).
The mathematical advantage the platform holds over the player. European roulette carries a house edge of around 2.7% (due to a single 0 slot), while American roulette comes in at approximately 5.26% (with two slots: 0 and 00).
The technology that ensures every spin of an online roulette wheel produces an independent and unpredictable result. This guarantees every player an equal chance on every single round.
A special rule found in some European roulette variants. If the ball lands on 0 and you have placed an even-money outside bet, you can either recover half your stake (La Partage) or leave it in place for the next spin (En Prison).
A roulette format where the game is run by a real human dealer via live video stream from a studio. Players interact in real time through a chat interface and virtual table layout, delivering a more authentic casino experience.
Roulette Variants & Key Differences You Should Know
European Roulette — The Top Choice for New Players
European roulette uses a wheel with 37 slots (numbers 1 to 36 plus a single green 0 slot). Having just one zero slot keeps the house edge low at 2.7%, meaning your odds are statistically better than other variants. This is the most recommended variant for players just getting into roulette — the rules are straightforward and the long-term risk is more manageable.
American Roulette — The Wheel with Two Zero Slots
The American version adds one extra slot — 00 — bringing the total to 38 slots. That may seem like a small difference, but it pushes the house edge up to around 5.26%. In practical terms, this means that over the long run, every RM100 wagered on American roulette returns less than the same bet on European. Players who understand this distinction typically go with European when both versions are available.
Live Roulette — The Real Casino Experience
The live dealer format adds a whole new dimension to the game. A real dealer spins the wheel in front of a high-definition camera, and you watch the results unfold in real time via live video stream. The interface typically lets you place bets through a touchscreen or mouse during the countdown. It's slower than RNG, but delivers a different kind of satisfaction — the social experience and visual transparency make it feel far more authentic.
| Variant | Wheel Slots | House Edge |
|---|---|---|
| European | 37 (0) | 2.70% |
| American | 38 (0, 00) | 5.26% |
| French | 37 (0) | 1.35%* |
| Live | Varies by variant | Same as above |
*French Roulette with La Partage rule — house edge is reduced for even-money outside bets.
A Quick Guide Before You Start Playing Roulette
Playing Roulette on Your Smartphone
Interface Optimised for Small Screens
The roulette tables on the raa88 platform are redesigned for phone screens — larger bet buttons, a number grid you can tap with your fingers, and a clearly visible countdown without needing to zoom in. This matters because roulette has a limited betting window before the wheel is spun.
Android, iOS & Mobile Browser
All roulette variants — including live dealer — are accessible directly through Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android, with no installation required. Video streaming for live tables requires a stable connection; 4G or WiFi is recommended for an uninterrupted experience. In areas with slower connectivity, RNG variants (non-live) are the more practical choice as they don't rely on video streaming.
For players who regularly play on their phone, download the official app delivers a smoother experience with game notifications and an interface fully optimised for mobile screens.
