But, the different wheel leads to additional differences between these two versions of roulette.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Odds and Payout<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In case you want to bet on a single number, the odds of winning in European and American roulette are different. The first comes with <strong>odds equal to 1 in 37<\/strong> and the latter comes with odds of winning equal to 1 in 38. However, the payout for wins is the same in both versions- 35 to 1.<\/p>\n<p>Needless to say, the house edge in American roulette is higher than the one found in European roulette.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additional betting options<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s an additional betting option that players can\u2019t find in American roulette and this option is known as En prison. Namely, <strong>European roulette<\/strong> players have a chance to get 50% of their wager back on even\/odd bets whenever the ball ends up on 0. This means that they can expect even lower house edge in this case.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Final thoughts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Modern <a href=\"https:\/\/thepogg.com\/guides\/blackjack\/\">blackjack<\/a> players, both online and offline, can find a wide array of blackjack versions. Yet, most of these games can be separated into two basic categories \u2013 European and American blackjack. There are numerous seemingly subtle differences between these two versions of the popular table game, but it turns out that these differences have a strong effect on the odds of winning.<\/p>\n<p>Even though American roulette offers lower chances of winning, many players prefer this version because they believe that it\u2019s more exciting and more authentic. In any case, the vast majority of land-based and online casinos are offering both versions which mean that players will have a chance to select the version they prefer without any problems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this latest entry in our continuing series on gambling technology, we take a look at the game of roulette and its regional differences.
