Play Live Roulette Casino UK – The Strategy To Get Started

Live Roulette casino UK is one of the most thrilling casino games for many
players because of its simple rules and easy gameplay. When compared to
more complicated table games found in casinos like Blackjack online and Poker, Roulette is one of
the easiest online casino games that you can learn. Some experienced
players might enjoy the skills and detailed strategies involved in playing
a game like Texas Holdem Poker
or live Blackjack, but for many players, all the fun of live Roulette UK lies in its
simplicity.

In live Roulette casino UK, the live dealer takes the white Roulette ball
and spins it in the wheel which has numbered and coloured pockets sometimes
referred to as canoes. Every player has to place a bet on which pocket of
the wheel you think the ball will finally drop in. Once the ball stops, the
dealer will announce the winning bet and the next round begins. As you can
probably tell, Roulette is a very fast-paced game with short rounds, making
it ideal for players who like action-packed live games.

Live Roulette, online Roulette, or Roulette in a land-based casino all
follow the same rules and offer the same type of bets if you’re playing the
same type of Roulette game. With live Roulette casino UK, you get the added
perk of having a real-life dealer instead of playing against a computer.
Live dealer Roulette has the authentic feel of a real casino to it, with
the atmosphere and the dealers making you feel like you’re really sitting
at the table in the casino. There is a certain glamorous and luxurious look
to live Roulette casino UK that makes it a much more attractive option than
playing online Roulette for many players.

Roulette
is a unique casino game that unlike many other table games, is purely a
game of chance. There are many misconceptions and myths about Roulette, so
it’s important to distinguish fact from fiction if you’re interested in
playing live Roulette casino UK. The most important thing to keep in mind
is that there are no winning strategies in Roulette, it’s simply a game of
chance and odds. Some players believe that there are methods you can use to
predict where the ball will land on the wheel, or that the past results
will predict where the ball will land in the future. However, these have
been proven to be myths time and time again, because there is no way to
predict where the ball will fall, as you’ll learn in this live Roulette
casino UK guide.

In this live Roulette casino UK guide, we’ll walk you through all the rules
and features of Roulette, along with all the popular variants of this table
game and the best way to play it to have the best experience. While there
are no specific strategies, it’s still crucial to learn the rules of the
game and the different types of bets you can place before playing
live Roulette
at Platincasino UK.

Must Know When Playing Live Roulette

If you’re looking out for the best live roulette out there, you’re going to
want to know what to look out for. Here are a couple of factors to keep in
mind:

Live Roulette Streaming

When you are playing live roulette casino UK and you are streaming into
your favourite table game, there are many factors that will determine what
sort of gaming experience you are going to get out of it. All these live
streaming sessions are usually filmed from the professionally set up
studios belonging to providers of Live Casino tables. Firstly, all of the
available games can easily be streamed onto any of your devices, whether it
is your desktop, or perhaps even your tablet or mobile phone while you are
on the go.

Most live casinos offer dynamic websites to make playing on such devices as
comfortable as possible. Let’s also not forget the many cool features that
these live casinos offer on their table games, such as saving your
preferred chip layout, re visiting or re-viewing hot and cold numbers, the
option to simply repeat your last bet instead of having to lay down all
your chips again and so on.

Professional Live Roulette Dealers

All online casino operators that offer Live Casino options, all
strive to replicate the experience that one gets in a brick -and-mortar
casino to keep all of their players happy and satisfied. The first thing
they obviously invest in are professionally trained Live Dealers. All the
dealers you will interact with are focused at all times and ready to take
charge of any table game, they literally are there to run the show.

They might not greet you like they would do in a land-based casino but
there is a reason for that too, they want to remain focused and keep the
flow of the game going. In saying that however, there is the possibility to
interact with them through a range of live chat services that these online
entities offer.

Roulette Strategy – How To Get Started

This live roulette casino UK guide will also go through a few basic
roulette strategies that you need to keep in mind when playing your live
roulette in online casinos. These include:

1. When to place your bets

2. Betting areas

3. Reaching around the table

4. Post betting

5. Roulette game variations

When to Place your Bets

The way it works in roulette is that after a round is complete, meaning
that a spin has been complete, the table is cleared, winners are paid and
onto the next. Players then have about one minute to place their new bets
on the table. There is no particular rush, bet calmly, but as soon as you
hear the croupier calling “No more bets”, also waving his/her hand across
over the table, this means that betting is closed.

The above process usually happens shortly after the croupier has spun the
wheel and thrown in the ball in the opposite direction. You do not have to
necessarily place your bets before the ball is thrown, you can also bet
once the ball is in motion. Just be sure to halt your action of betting,
touching chips or anything else once the dealer says that betting is over.

Betting Areas

It is quite easy to know what you are doing on a roulette table because
every betting option is clearly marked on the table. You can bet anything
from a bet on a single number, bets on multiple numbers, you can play on
odd or even numbers, black or red, and even categories of numbers falling
from 1-18 or 18-36 etc.

There are also a lot of split betting options available for players to bet
on, this all depends on the exact place you put down your chips on the
table and which lines your chips are touching. If you want to place a
straight bet on one single number, or any of the possible options we have
mentioned in the previous section, simply place the chip in the middle of
the box. If you place your chips on particular lines you will get a lot
more winning-options. Here are a few of them:

1. Place your chips on the line between two numbers. This means your bet is
split over two numbers.

2. Place your chips on a line at either end of a row and you will be
betting on all the numbers in that row.

3. Place your bet on the intersection between numbers and you will be
betting on all the numbers touching with your chips.

4. Place your chips on the intersection between two rows and you will be
betting on all the numbers in both of the rows

5. The betting amount is always up to you as long as you meet the minimum
bet table requirement.

Reaching Around the Table

Players can choose to place their own chips anywhere on the table, as long
as they are in reach. Do not attempt to place a bet by throwing the chips
across the table, this will cause a lot of confusion and nobody wants that.
If you cannot reach the area where you want to lay down your bet, you can
either ask the croupier to do it or you can even ask a player to do it for
you. This rule obviously only counts if you are in a real casino, in live
roulette online, you do not face these issues as you are placing your bets
online within the allowed time frame.

Post Betting

As soon as the ball comes to a stop and falls onto the wheel landing on a
number, the croupier will then place something referred to as the marker on
that number, for everyone in the game to see. In live casino the number is
marked with some kind of illumination and the number drawn also pops up on
your screen. Winnings are then settled right away.

Reading such articles about roulette and a bit of practice games in live
casinos, will give you a better understanding of the game and also
interaction with dealers, so that the next time you will step into a
casino, you will not feel overwhelmed by everything you see in any of the
brick-and-mortar venues.

Different Roulette Game Variations

The main difference between
American Roulette
and European Roulette is the extra double zero that can be found on the
American table. This raises up the house edge. Taking off this double zero
option would simply make it European roulette.

Then comes the French Roulette which has a slightly different table layout
and if you happen to be lucky and win, the en prison rule applies
which will return 50% of any even money bet when zero lands. This is very
good when you look at it from a player’s perspective as it decreases the
house edge to 1.35%. French roulette also allows for what is called a
selection of “announce” bets, that allows players to put down bets on
different cocktails of numbers.

Live Roulette Variations At Platincasino Uk

There are multiple
Live Roulette variations, some of which are widely known and some lesser-known variations. At
Platincasino UK, you can find a diverse choice of Roulette games in the
Roulette Lobby, from traditional Roulette to more innovative variations
from the masters at Evolution Gaming.

Name	What it’s about	Who it’s for
Lightning Roulette	Lightning Roulette is an innovative extended version of the classic Roulette game, offering a totally unique experience from the traditional Roulette game. This live Roulette variant has a gorgeous Art Deco theme, a game show style with advanced lighting effects, and all the usual Roulette bets in addition to the Lucky Number payouts in every round. The Lucky Numbers feature uses an advanced RNG system where one and five numbers (Lucky Numbers) are hit by lightning and given increased payouts that can go up to 500x.	· Players who want a longer Roulette game · Players looking for a visually attractive game · Players who want to play a spin on the standard Roulette game with extra payouts · Players who enjoy game show style games with lots of action
French Roulette Gold	French Roulette Gold is a live Roulette game based on the traditional French version of Roulette. The wheel is numbered in the same way as the European Roulette wheel with 37 pockets numbered from 0 to 36. The main difference is the addition of the La Partage rule which applies when the ball lands on zero. If you have an even-money bet and the ball falls on zero you only lose half of your initial bet. For example, in European or American Roulette, if you placed a red colour bet and the ball landed on the zero, you would lose your bet. In French Roulette Gold, you get half your bet back with the La Partage rule.	· Players who want to try out an exciting new feature that can lower the standard Roulette house edge · Players who like the French version of Roulette but want slightly better odds
Auto-Roulette VIP	At Platincasino UK, you can find both Auto Roulette and Auto Roulette VIP. In both versions, the game is played using a real live-wheel instead of a live dealer.

Double Ball Roulette	Double Ball Roulette is a unique Roulette variation created by Evolution Gaming.

Immersive Roulette	Immersive Roulette is a Hollywood style of live Roulette that brings you even closer to the action with the use of multiple cameras that follow the movement of the dealer and the ball, with an added slow-motion replay of the winning number or colour.

Different Roulette Bets To Consider

When you play live Roulette casino UK, it’s important to learn about all
the different types of bets that can be placed in any standard Roulette
game. There aren’t really any strategies to follow here because whichever
bet you place, it’s always going to be a matter of chance. However, it’s
important to understand the winning potential and payout of each type of
bet before you play live Roulette casino UK.

In any game of Roulette, there are three main bet types that can be placed:
inside bets, outside bets, and neighbour bets. These represent three main
areas on the Rouletting betting table. Below, we’ll walk you through all
the different bet types in each category and the payout for each one.

Inside Bets

Inside bets are the bets made on the inner area of the rectangle where the
numbers are placed. Inside bets have a lower winning chance but much higher
payouts when compared to outside bets. These are all the possible inside
bets you can put your chips on:

Bet	Definition	Payout
Straight Up	A bet on any specific number on the table, sometimes also referred to as a single-number bet. A straight up bet is the highest paying bet in any Roulette game because it’s also the hardest to win on.	35:1
Street	A bet placed on three numbers in the same row, for example, 7, 8, and 9.	11:1
Double Street / Six Line	A bet similar to the street bet but placed on two rows of three numbers each.	5:1
Split	A bet which is split on two adjacent numbers on the Roulette table layout. This is done by placing the chips in between the two numbers.	17:1
Corner	A bet on four numbers that are adjacent to each other at every corner, forming a square shape. The chip is placed between on the corners of all four numbers.	8:1
Basket	A basket is a bet on the 0, 1, 2, and 3 pockets. In American Roulette, it would be a five-number bet on which includes the double zero as well.	6:1

Outside Bets

Outside bets are the types of bets you can place on the outer edge of the
Roulette table, outside the number rectangle. As previously mentioned,
outside bets have lower payouts but the chances of winning with an outside
bet is significantly higher. Outside bets also cover larger numbers of
groups, giving you a higher chance of getting a payout. Below, we’ll
describe the five most common types of outside bets and their payouts.

Bet	Definition	Payout
Red or Black	A bet placed on the red or black pockets. This is done simply by placing your chips on the red or black square on the table.	1:1
Even or Odd	A bet on any odd or even number placed by putting the chips on either the odd or even box. The zero doesn’t count in this type of bet.	1:1
High numbers	A bet on the second 12 numbers which are referred to as high numbers.	1:1
Low numbers	This is a bet on the first 12 numbers, from 1 to 18 which are referred to as low numbers.	1:1
Dozens	On the Roulette table, there are three numbered fields marked 1st 12, 2nd 12, and 3rd 12. The first covers the numbers from 1 to 12, the second from 13 to 24, and the third from 25 to 36.	2:1
Columns	A column bet is on 12 numbers within the same column. The 36 numbers on the table layout are divided into three separate columns which you can bet on.	2:1

Neighbour Bets

Besides inside and outside bets, you can also place neighbour bets. These
are found when playing live Roulette casino UK and they are also sometimes
referred to as section or call bets. A neighbour bet usually covers five
numbers that are adjacent to each other on the Roulette wheel instead of on
the table layout. There are three main types of neighbour bets in Roulette.

• Les Voisons du Zéro
  – This refers to a bet on the neighbours of zero and includes the 17
  numbers that are between 22 and 25 (including these numbers).
• Jeu Zero
  – Translating to zero game, this bet covers the seven numbers closed to
  the zero pocket, including the zero.
• Les Finales
  – There are two types of Les Finales or Finals Bets: the Finales en Plein and the Finales a Cheval. The first
  is a bet on the numbers which end with the same digits while the second
  refers to a bet on the splits of the numbers that end with the same
  digits.
• Tiers du Cylindre
  – This refers to the ‘third of the wheel’, meaning a bet on one-third
  of the wheel, on the numbers between 33 and 27.
• Les Orphelins
  – Meaning ‘the orphans’, this bet covers the two sections of the wheel
  outside the Tiers and Voisins section.

The Advantages Of Playing Live Roulette

The reason why playing live Roulette is becoming so popular is because
there are several advantages to playing Roulette in a live environment.

time of the day, 24/7. Games are constantly ongoing with live dealers
changing with every game or round.

created by multiple camera angles, advanced lighting techniques, chat
function, and realistic casino studios.

An Easy and Quick Way of Placing Bets

When you’re playing live or online Roulette, placing your bets is simpler
and easier than it is when you’re playing at a land-based casino. First of
all, there is never the problem of a betting area being out of reach or
having to wait for the dealer to place your bet. At the live Roulette
table, you simply drag your selected chips onto the area where you want to
place your bet. You can place multiple bets with the click of a button and
if you want to repeat your previous bet, there is also the option to re-bet
your previous play on the next round.

Another great advantage of live Roulette casino UK is that you can track
the action as it happens by using the game history function. Here, you can
see the results from the recent rounds as well as a list of all the hot and
cold numbers to get a full overview of the last couple of rounds.
