One of the most rewarding aspects of operating a website like onlinecasino.ie is the chance to offer helpful casino tips to new online casino games players. Any form of gambling requires some knowledge of the odds of winning if you are to give yourself the best chance of success. This is relatively easy if you are gambling on a sporting event because the odds as assessed by the experts are plain to see, but that may not be the case with some casino games particularly those with multiple betting options such as roulette. Roulette is a casino game generally considered to be one which offers the player the best chance of winning because in theory at least the house edge is represented by the zero ie. the 37th number on the table. Some would also argue that roulette is one of the few casino games where the odds paid out accurately represent the statistical chances of a number or group of numbers coming up, so why are we bothering to comment on it. It is very true that anyone playing roulette by placing single bets knows exactly what the chances of winning are and what the return will be, but that is not how most people play roulette. Multiple betting is the attraction of roulette and anyone who has watched play on a crowded roulette table will have seen players piling chips across the table to cover numerous possibilities only to get a very small return even if they do win. Take a simple double bet for example, say a bet on a row at 11/1 plus an even money bet on Black as a hedge. If the bet on the row is successful but not the Black, the winning odds are effectively halved to 11/2, and if just the Black comes up you have actually won nothing. Roulette is a casino game in which it is easy to get carried away, so our casino tip this month is to think about the overall effect of multiple betting on your returns.
