Ireland’s Finest Online Roulette At Spin Palace

Roulette has been around for hundreds of years, and has been just as popular online as it has been offline for so long. With Spin Palace, Irish players can enjoy it in all its glory, from the comfort of their own homes.

Roulette’s Principles and Pleasures

In every game of Roulette, a ball is dropped onto a spinning wheel. Our live Roulette games, supported by Evolution Gaming Software, do use a real-life wheel and ball to do this. In our other Roulette games, Microgaming uses animations, graphics and Random Number Generation to recreate a Roulette game with incredible atmosphere.

The wheel is divided into partitions: a green segment labelled 0, and then alternating red and black segments numbered (not in order) from 1 to 36. In American editions of the game, but not in European or French editions, there is an extra green panel labelled 00. What you need to do, by placing chips on the corresponding area of the Roulette table, is bet on where the ball will land when the wheel comes to rest.

Roulette bets can be very general or very specific. The more particular you are, the higher the risk and the corresponding potential reward so it depends how much Irish luck you feel is with you at the time! Outside Bets, named because of their position on the Roulette table, have an almost 50% chance of winning because you bet on the ball landing in an odd- or even-numbered pocket, a red or black pocket, or a pocket numbered 1 to 18 or 19 to 36.

Inside Bets, also named for where you find them on the Roulette table, can be as particular as the exact panel into which the ball will fall, or can cover a much bigger range of numbers. Unless you bet on the ball landing in a 0 or 00 panel, you lose automatically when it does. This gives the house a good edge, which is at its highest in the American games with the extra green segment.

Strategy Development for Online Roulette

Like anything else in life, the more you practise online Roulette the better you will understand and play it. At Spin Palace we allow you to play for free as well as for real money, in our Practice Play mode. This lets you develop new strategies and build your confidence, so make sure you take advantage.

When you’re deciding what to do in Roulette, it’s important to remember that the game is totally dependent on chance. Your best chance of winning is to play the long game and place bets based on overall odds.

Beginners should warm up with French or European games, with the smaller house edge, before trying American games. We also always suggest starting with the even-money Outside Bets, until you get a proper feel for the game and develop your own instincts. There are also 3 specific Roulette betting strategies that beginners might like to try: The Martingale, Fibonacci and D’Alembert Strategies.

Specific Betting Strategies for Roulette

The Martingale, D’Alembert and Fibonacci betting strategies all operate on the principle that if you increase your bet when you lose and decrease your bet when you win, ultimately you will get enough back to recoup your losses and make a small profit. The real trick is having enough discipline and time to stick to them, and your casino needs to be able to afford for you to play for as long as you need to. At Spin Palace, we can guarantee those last 2 to our Irish players.

The Fibonacci Strategy follows the Fibonacci Sequence of numbers; you bet the next number up when you lose, and go back down to 0 when you lose. The Martingale Strategy means you double your bet when you lose and halve it when you win, and for D’Alembert you pick your own starting point and decide how much to move up and down by.

Try these methods out yourself in our free play mode, and keep what works for you when you want to play for real money. Either way, you’re going to love spinning the wheel with us.
