The world of online gaming created a whole new aspect to the game of progressive roulette. Not only are there new aspects to the original game but there is also new versions of progressive roulette available. Among the most popular are American Roulette, European Roulette and Roulette Royale. Each one brings its own niche to the roulette gaming table.
At many of the online casinos, players can try each version and select the best one for personal preferences. These roulette games are available free of charge for online gamers. There are select sites that allow players to set up real time bank accounts with actual funds if this option is desired. Brick and mortar casinos do charge an entrance fee and require a monetary bet before engaging in a game of roulette.
The most popular online version of roulette is Roulette Royale. Standard roulette rules and betting are adhered to in this version of the game. There is the option to place a side bet when a progressive jackpot is in motion. As more gamers join a game of Roulette Royale already in progress, the jackpot amount increases. In some online casino settings players have the opportunity to win up to $700,000 in the progressive roulette jackpot.
Progressive roulette operates by allowing players to increase bet amounts with winnings earned. By doing this, a player can experience a lengthy winning streak without touching that initial dollar amount bet that was made. As the game progresses, a player is basically risking winnings as opposed to initial investments.
Roulette is a game of chance and the progressive version is no different. In all roulette games the house maintains the edge over the player at all times. There is virtually no way to will a ball to fall into a number or color slot in which a bet has been made by a player. Having a workable strategy in mind when sitting down at a roulette table can have a player seeing longer winning streaks. In the American progressive roulette version a standard wheel holds 38 pockets. These include the numbers 0 and 00. Therefore the odds of a player hitting a specific number are 1 out of 38 or 2.63%. This margin can be slightly increased by placing a more specific bet such as black or red, even or odd increases the winning margin to 18 out of 38 or 47.37%.
This same strategy can be applied to a single zero progressive roulette wheel. Here the odds of winning when betting on a number stands at 1 out of 37 or 2.70%. Increasing these odds to 48.65% chance of winning is obtained by placing a specific bet on the wheel. Select an online casino that offers the single wheel progressive roulette game to polish strategy for the other versions of the game.
Placing a safety bet in progressive roulette is referred to as betting on a color or the even/odd combination as opposed to betting on a specific number or set of numbers. On a lucky day, a player can see a healthy winning streak with a safety bet strategy in place. At the end of the day a player is more likely to have about as much money in the pocket as was there before the game was started.
In the event a player is feeling particularly lucky on a given day, a more risky strategy of single number betting can be applied. Here the risk is extremely high but the rewards are even higher. When applied in the right setting, a player can see a healthy monetary reward come their way at the end of a day of gaming. A $10 bet can quickly turn into a $350 dollar bet when this strategy is played right.
