Rainbet roulette: the wheels and how they differ

Rainbet roulette is available as live dealer tables, automated wheels, software tables and an in-house Original. The bets look the same everywhere, so the wheel itself is the first thing to read.

What is Rainbet roulette?

Rainbet roulette covers every roulette game on rainbet.com. You bet on where a ball will land on a numbered wheel, and the payout depends on how many numbers your bet covers. The four main forms are in the table below.

Which live wheels does Rainbet list?

The live lobby includes Rainbet Roulette, Rainbet Speed Auto Roulette and Rainbet Auto Mega Roulette, all supplied by Pragmatic Play.

Outside those four, Rainbet's homepage names a multiplayer game called EOS Roulette. According to Rainbet, its randomness comes from EOS blockchain blocks instead of a seed pair.

Why does the number of zeros matter?

The zeros are where the house edge comes from. A wheel with one zero gives the house a smaller edge than a wheel with two, yet both pay the same on a winning number. The table's name or info panel tells you which wheel you're looking at.

Check the wheel type before the stake. It's the one setting in roulette that changes your long-run cost, and you can't change it once you're seated.

What are inside and outside bets?

Roulette bets fall into two groups, and they produce very different sessions from the same balance.

  • Outside bets cover large groups: red or black, odd or even, high or low, dozens and columns. They win often and pay small.
  • Inside bets cover one number or a small cluster. They win rarely and pay much more.

No bet type beats the wheel. Each one trades how often you win against how much a win pays, and the house edge sits behind all of them.

How many numbers does each bet cover?

Every roulette bet is defined by how many numbers it covers. The fewer the numbers, the less often it wins and the more it pays.

The payout for each bet is printed on the table's info panel. Zero isn't red or black and isn't odd or even, which is how the wheel keeps its edge on the even-money bets.

How does a live round run?

  1. The betting window opens and a timer starts.
  2. You place chips on the layout before the timer ends.
  3. The wheel spins and the ball settles on a number.
  4. Winning bets are paid automatically to your balance.

A live wheel won't wait. If your connection drops while bets are open, the round carries on without you. Rainbet live casino has more on playing at streamed tables.

Can you verify a Rainbet roulette spin?

You can verify a spin on Originals Roulette. It's generated from a client seed, a hashed server seed and a nonce, so the result is fixed before you bet. Rainbet provably fair walks through the check.

Live and auto tables aren't checked with seeds. Software roulette relies on the provider's certified random number generator.

Do betting systems work?

No betting system changes the edge. Doubling after a loss changes how your results are spread out: many small wins and an occasional large loss. Every spin is independent of the one before it, on every wheel.

How do you pick a roulette table?

Pick the wheel first and the pace second. A single-zero wheel is the better starting point. Then choose between a dealer's wheel, with slower and more social rounds, and an auto wheel, which gets through more spins per hour. More spins means more of your balance passes through the house edge in the same time.

Can you play Rainbet roulette for free?

Yes, in demo mode on software roulette and on the Original. Demo mode uses play money. It's a simple way to learn the layout before joining a live table. For the wider lobby, see Rainbet casino games.

What's a sensible way to start?

Start with outside bets on a single-zero wheel at a small stake. You'll win often enough to learn how the layout and the timer work. Add inside bets later, once you know what each one covers.

Demo mode on software roulette is a good place to try both kinds of bet first.
