To play the game:
- Click on a chip of the desired value to select it.

- You can place several chips into different betting areas simultaneously.
- If a timer is shown on the Roulette table you have limited time to place your bets. At the end of this time, bets which have been placed will be automatically confirmed and no new bets will be accepted.

The winnings also depend on the number of chips involved in the bet. For example, in the case of Finales a Cheval 9/10, four chips are placed to cover 9, 10, 19/20, 29/30, If 9 or 10 is hit, the return is 35 + 1 - 4 = 32 chips. If 19, 20, 29 or 30 is hit, the return is 17 + 1 - 4 = 14 chips. |

Winnings for Neighbor Bets
The winning number always pays 35 to 1. The return, however, depends on the number of chips involved in the bet. If, for example, the bet is placed on five consecutive numbers 11-30-8-23-10, it involves five chips. If one of the numbers is hit, the return is 35 + 1 - 5 = 31 chips.
La Partage Rule
The game uses the La Partage rule. According the rule, you lose only half of your even-money bets when the spinning result is zero.
