The sheet below explains the gaming rules for the different betting types in roulette. The odds for each betting type are depending of their probability.

The roulette table usually imposes minimum and maximum bets.

Players can continue to place bets as the ball spins around the wheel until the dealer announces no more bets or rien ne va plus. (unfortunately Live Simulator cannot speak but it will lock the board during a throw).

Name	Odd	Probability	Bet example
Plein / Straight Up	1 : 35	1 : 37 = 2.7%
Cheval / Split bet	1 : 17	2 : 37 = 5.4%
Transversale Plein / Street bet	1 : 11	3 : 37 = 8.1%
Carre / Corner bet	1 : 8	4 : 37 = 10.8%
Transversale Simple / Six Line / Double Street	1 : 5	6 : 37 = 16.2%
Dozens, Columns	1 : 2	12 : 37 = 32.4%
Simple Chances / Red / Black / Even / Odd / Manque / Passe	1 : 1	18 : 37 = 48.65%

* All numbers corresponding to a roulette wheel with 37 slots.

To determine the percent probability of winning a particular bet in roulette, the corresponding term in the table can be divided and multiplied by 100.

Example for determining the percent probability of a Plein:
1: 37 * 100 = 2.7%. If 2 Pleins are played the winning probability is therefore 2 * 2.7 = 5.4 percent.

Note on the payouts:
In addition to the payouts you get back the stake itself.
An example of a Plein with a stake of 1:
payout amount = stake * 35 + stake = 1 * 35 + 1 = 36
