What We Offer in American Roulette

Our American Roulette selection covers both standard RNG tables and live dealer streams from studios including Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live. The double-zero wheel sits at the center of every table layout — inside bets, outside bets, call bets, and neighbor wagers are all on the felt. RTP figures are shown directly on each table where the provider publishes them; we don't

invent numbers. Players in Chicago can reach these tables through the browser or the mobile account view in seconds. Whether you prefer a solo RNG session or a real-time streamed dealer, the same wheel mechanics apply throughout our catalog.

HOW WE RUN IT

Fair Play and Studio Standards

Every American Roulette title in our lobby comes from studios that publish their own audit and certification details. Here's what that means in practice for the tables you're spinning.

Certified Wheel Mechanics

Studios like Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live subject their American Roulette wheels to independent outcome audits. Certification details are available through each studio's published documentation.

RTP Where Published

We display RTP figures only when the game provider exposes them. No figures are estimated or fabricated — if a table shows RTP, it came from the studio directly.

Session Logs on Your Account

Every spin result, every bet placement, and every payout from American Roulette rounds is recorded in your account history. You can pull that data from the session log at any time.

State-by-State Access

Access to our American Roulette tables depends on your state's law. We confirm eligibility at account level so you're only playing where it's permitted for you.

American Roulette Terms You Should Know

New to the wheel or just want a clear definition? These are the terms that come up most often at the American Roulette table — defined plainly, no casino jargon.

01
What is the double zero (00) in American Roulette?

The double zero is an extra pocket on the American wheel, giving it 38 total slots. It raises the house edge compared to European Roulette, which only has a single zero.

02
What does 'inside bet' mean in American Roulette?

An inside bet is placed on specific numbers or small groups within the numbered grid. Examples include straight-up bets on one number, splits on two, or corners covering four adjacent numbers.

03
What is an outside bet?

Outside bets cover large groups of numbers on the outer part of the layout — red or black, odd or even, or high or low. They pay less but cover close to half the wheel.

04
What is the Five-Number Bet in American Roulette?

A bet unique to American Roulette covering 0, 00, 1, 2, and 3. It carries the highest house edge of any bet on the layout and is generally considered the least favorable wager.

05
What does 'straight-up' mean?

A straight-up bet is a wager placed on a single number. If that exact number hits, the standard payout is 35 to 1. The double zero can also be bet straight-up.

06
What is RTP in roulette?

RTP stands for Return to Player — the theoretical percentage a game returns over many rounds. On American Roulette, studio-published RTP reflects the double-zero wheel's math, not guaranteed session results.

Common Questions About American Roulette

These are the questions we see most from people exploring our American Roulette tables for the first time — or coming back after a break.

American Roulette has both a 0 and a 00, giving the wheel 38 pockets total. European Roulette has only one zero and 37 pockets. That extra pocket shifts the house edge higher on the American version.

Yes. We carry live dealer American Roulette tables streamed by Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live. You see a real wheel, a real dealer, and the results are broadcast in real time to your screen.

All our American Roulette tables load through the mobile browser. No separate app download is required — log into your account from any phone and the table layout adjusts to your screen automatically.

Bet limits vary by table and are shown on the table info panel before you sit down. Live dealer tables typically carry higher minimums than RNG tables. Check the limit badge on each table card in the lobby.

RTP is displayed on the game screen when the provider publishes it. Not every table shows this figure. We only display what the studio provides — we do not estimate or fill in missing values ourselves.

Availability depends on your state's law. When you create an account, we confirm which tables are accessible based on your location. Access is available only in eligible states where local law permits online casino play.
