In roulette, a column bet is a popular wager where you place chips on one of the three columns of numbers on the betting layout. This bet covers 12 numbers and pays 2 to 1 if any number in that column wins. 
For example, in American roulette, the first column includes numbers 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, and 34. Betting on this column gives you a chance to win if the ball lands on any of these numbers.
Column bets are straightforward and offer good odds, making them a favorite among players. However, remember that the house edge varies between American and European roulette versions. |
