How to choose the right version of the game to win at roulette

Roulette

As many people will tell you, blackjack is the most rewarding casino games for its players.
With only a basic strategy and some card-counting, you can get a negative house edge, which means the game is statistically in your favour.
Unfortunately, since they implemented a variety of new techniques to make card-counting less efficient, casinos managed to make this  method extremely difficult, even almost impossible to use, which I was complaining about in this past article.
I was recently telling you about video poker, which, if you play a jacks or better version offering the best rates, you can get a very high pay-out rate.
Luckily, these two games are not the only ones offering the player an interesting house-edge.
Roulette, for example,  can also, in some circumstances, be generous to its players.
As you may well know, different versions of this classic casino game exist.
The most famous are probably the American roulette and the European roulette, a term which covers both a French and an English version of the game.
The first thing to know is always to prefer European versions to its American counterpart, as its house edge does not exceed 2.7%, whereas the house edge in American roulette reaches 5.2% because of its extra double zero square.
On top of this, you need to realise that all types of bets are not as advantageous in European roulette.Because of its rules, simple odds give a house edge of only 1.35% in this version of the game.
When the ball stops on the green zero square, instead of losing your bet if you had placed it on black, red, odd, even, pass or miss, you can get half of your original bet back.
In French roulette, instead of this option, you can opt for putting your bet in jail.If you choose this option, the next spin will decide the fate of the sum you had bet.
If the simple odd you had bet on occurs, you get your money back.If it does not, you lose it.
Therefore, in order to play roulette with the most advantageous house edge, you need to bet on simple odds and play the European version of the game.
Many online casinos offer a French or an English version of the game.
My personal advice is to use this strategy on one of these websites: EuroPalace, EUCasino or 7Red, as their offer is now indubitably among the most attractive in the business.
