Live Casino Roulette Dealers

Live roulette brings the classic, fast-paced game into players’ homes courtesy of real-time video streaming. And at Spin Genie, you have more than 30 stunning live roulette tables to choose from.

There may be multiple variations of live roulette online, but the core mechanics are the same: a dealer spins the wheel, players place bets on the outcome, and one or more people may win. It’s that simple.

Standard online roulette games depend on RNGs (Random Number Generators) to stay fair and ensure players have the same odds of winning as in a live version. While it might seem totally different to online RNG roulette, live roulette gameplay is very similar.

Live dealer roulette works just like the classic game played in brick-and-mortar casinos: you can watch the dealer interact with the wheel and the table for your peace of mind. Connecting with a professional, glamorous dealer creates a more authentic experience, too.

How do you play online Roulette?

Playing live online roulette is fairly straightforward, though the rules and pace vary depending on the version you choose. The aim is to place a correct bet on which number the ball will land when the roulette wheel comes to a stop.

As you may or may not know, roulette consists of two main elements: the wheel and the table. Both have corresponding numbers, between 1 - 36 with either one or two zeros (as in the American version). Numbers are either coloured red or black, while the zero(s) are green.

In each round of live online roulette, players can choose to place inside or outside bets. You are welcome to place a bet on any of the wheel’s numbers, or you might want to try a number of bets in one round.

The croupier drops a ball to spin at the edge of the wheel, so that it can rest in one of the pockets. When the wheel stops the croupier announces the winning number, and players place their next bets, if they wish to continue.

While roulette may seem daunting to newcomers, it’s easy to pick up within a few quick rounds.

What is the origin of roulette?

Roulette as we know it today can be traced back to one man: Blaise Pascal. He was an inventor and mathematician who created the roulette wheel in 1655, while working on a perpetual motion machine.

His version stayed the same for hundreds of years, until 1842, when Lois and Francois Blanc devised a new roulette wheel with a zero pocket. King Charles III helped to popularise this version of roulette, and the game reached America in the 19th century, where the double zero was implemented. Since then, multiple variations of roulette have emerged, giving players a wider choice than ever before.
