The 00 roulette wheel is a popular variation of the classic casino game that features an additional double zero pocket alongside the standard single zero. This version, commonly known as American roulette, differs from European roulette which has only one zero pocket.
In 00 roulette, the wheel contains 38 pockets in total: numbers 1 through 36, plus 0 and 00. The presence of the extra double zero increases the house edge to 5.26%, making it slightly more challenging for players compared to the European version with its 2.70% house edge.
The betting layout and rules remain largely similar to other roulette variations. Players can place inside bets on specific numbers or outside bets on groups of numbers. The addition of the 00 pocket creates additional betting opportunities while maintaining the exciting randomness that makes roulette so appealing to casino enthusiasts worldwide. |
