Special Roulette Bets
For a little added fun, many European Roulette tables offer special ‘French’ bets. These bets include Voisins du Zéro (neighbours of zero), Tiers du Cylindre (a third of the wheel) and Orphelins (the orphans).
'French' wagers allow you to place bets that cover more areas of the table. Several numbers can have chips added with just the click of a button.
The Voisins wager covers the biggest section of the wheel. Chips are added to 17 pockets on either side of zero, starting with 22 and ending with 25.
On the opposite side of the wheel is the Tiers du Cylindre wager. Numbers 27 to 33 are covered, while the Orphelins wager bets on all other pockets.
You can also discover some marvellous side bet options, which offer different chances to add a prize to the pot!
