Popular UK Online Roulette Types

These are the roulette games that are most popular with players in the UK. They all follow the standard rules of the game, though some have extra features and twists that are there to make them more appealing. They’re widely available and can be found at many online casinos.

European Live Roulette

This is a live version of European roulette. Games of European roulette use a wheel with 37 numbered pockets: there are pockets numbered 1-36 (each one coloured red or black), plus an extra 0 pocket that’s coloured green. Most live roulette games use the European wheel.

American Live Roulette

This game is similar to European live roulette, except that it uses the American wheel, which has an extra pocket. This extra pocket is the green double zero, or 00. Because there’s one more pocket for the ball to land in, the chances of winning are slightly lower when compared with European roulette.

London Roulette

This Is a version of European roulette that’s specially designed to recreate the experience of playing in a top London casino. It’s a live casino UK roulette game that uses native British dealers who are keen to give players the VIP roulette experience.

French Roulette

With French roulette, the European-style wheel is used, so there are 37 pockets the ball can land in. What sets French roulette apart is that it has two extra rules that come into play if the ball lands on 0 and you’ve placed an outside bet. If the ‘la partage’ rule is used, half your bet is returned to you; if ‘en prison’ is used, your bet stays where it is and is applied to the next round, giving you one more chance to win.

Lightning Roulette

This is one of the best live roulette online games offering the chance to win some extra large payouts. On every round, up to five numbers on the wheel are struck by lightning and given a multiplier ranging from x50 to x500. If the ball lands on one of these numbers, everyone who’s placed a single bet on that number wins a boosted payout.

Double Ball Roulette

As its name suggests, this version of roulette is played with two balls instead of one. It’s available as both animated and live games and every round, there are two chances for players to win, instead of one.

Speed Roulette

This is a super fast live roulette game where it supposedly takes just 25 seconds to go from one spin of the wheel to the next. It’s a fast-paced game that enables players to play an extra 50 rounds per hour.

How To Play Online Roulette in the UK

Online roulette games have a simple mechanic: you place a bet, then watch as the wheel’s spun. If the ball lands in a pocket that your bet covers, you win. The betting table displays all the game’s bets and you put your money on the bet you wish to place. You’re able to bet on a single number or a selection of numbers. For live dealer roulette games, there’s a limited amount of time for you to place your bets. Once all bets have been placed, the wheel’s spun. The ball moves around it and eventually comes to stop in one of the 37 or 38 numbered pockets - this is the winning pocket and anyone who has placed a bet covering this particular pocket is paid.

Roulette is simple because once you’ve placed your bet, there’s nothing else for you to do. There’s no decision-making involved at all.

Different Types of Bets

Roulette games typically offer a large number of betting options. These can be sorted into two categories: inside and outside bets. Inside bets cover a small selection numbers and have lower odds but higher payouts. Outside bets cover a big selection of numbers and have high odds but lower payouts. Most bets cover a specific group of numbers.
