The

chip

system

If you decide to ga m ble, you must go to the c a s h i er and exch a n ge you r m o n ey for pl a cques or chips. The value of the ch i p s is cl e a rly marked on them . This is call ed ‘f a ce va l u e’.

On ce you have your “CASINO CURRENCY” you decide the den o m i n a tion

of your chips: 10, 20, 50 or more , You wi ll then re ceive a pile of 50 chips of 10 that you wi ll pl a ce on the layout, as you wish, a cco rding to the po s s i ble co m bi n a tions that we have shown you .

Nevertheless,

be careful :

All the pl ayers around the table who are a l so pl aying with chips of 10 have the same chips as you.

For exa m ple, if you ch a n ge 1000F, the cashier can give you a pl a cque wo rth 1000 or 2 chips wo rth 500 each . “L ES PLAQ U ES” The pl a cques, or “ P LAQU E S” a re re ct a n g u l a r. “L ES JETO N S” The chips, or “J E TO N S” a re rou n d .

In some casinos, money can be exch a n ged d i re ct ly at the rou l et te tabl e .

and you must ask the dealer to exch a n ge your chip wo rth 500 for 50 chips wo rth 10 each, for exa m pl e .

It is down to you to rem em ber how m a ny chips you pl a ced so that you can claim your wi n n i n gs in the event that you wi n . The dealers are there to hel p you, and in the event of a d i s pu te with anot h er pl ayer, the

su rvei ll a n ce c a m era s wh i ch m o n i tor the tables wi ll be scre en ed to re solve the dispu te .

The case of the zero

If zero is the winning number...

It can be pl ayed alone : you call “ z é ro en pl ei n”. The chip is pl a ced in the cen tre of the zero box .

T h o se who bet on zero, or on a co m bi n a tion with zero win as they would with any ot h er nu m ber. Mo re over, the zero bet is exceptional as it doe s n’t belong to

a ny of the even ch a n ces co m bi n a tions, ( Hi gh, Low, Evens,

Odds, Red, Black), yet those who have pl ayed t h e se co m bi n a tions haven’t

lost everything, t h ey are

“f rozen”.

For exa m ple, a pl ayer who has pl a ced

a 1000 chip on Red If it is cou pl ed with one of its

n ei gh b ou rs on the boa rd, you call :

ch eval 0/1 ch eval 0/2 ch eval 0/3

The chip is pl a ced on the line betwe en the two nu m bers .

Un til now, the zero is pl ayed like any ot h er nu m ber. Given its spe cial po s i tion above three ot h er nu m bers ,

the stre et bet can be pl a ced by pu t ting the chip at the cen tre of the T fo rm ed by the boxes of the three nu m bers co n cern ed, there are two po s s i bi l i ties: you call 0, 1, 2

0, 2, 3

The corner 0, 1, 2, 3 is pl a ced ei t h er to the left or the ri ght of the layout as shown in the pictu re .

- ei t h er he coll e cts half his bet and a ccepts to lose the ot h er half - ei t h er he remains “f rozen” ( see the l i n e for “even ch a n ce s” ) In this exa m ple the dealer wi ll pl a ce the 1000 chip on this line. Af ter the zero win, the pl ayer has two options :

- If, on the next round, the winning co m pa rtm ent is red, the bet is “f re ed” and the pl ayer can coll e ct his bet. - If the winning nu m ber is bl a ck, the pl ayer has lost.

Some “annonces”

In addition to the usual “a n n o n ce s” for the co m bi n a tions alre a dy men ti o n ed , t h ere are also some more classic calls known to the dealers.

The wh e el has be en divi d ed into three se cti o n s :

- Les voisins du zéro ( Zero’s nei gh b ou rs )

- Le ti ers du cyl i n d re (The third of the wh e el )

- Les orp h elins ( O rp h a n s )

You call

“ les voisins du zéro”

and the dealer wi ll ask you for 9 ch i p s wh i ch wi ll cover the 17 nu m bers in this se ction. The chips pl a ced on 0, 2, 3

and 25-29

a re dou bl ed .

You call “le ti ers du cyl i n d re”

and the dealer wi ll ask you for 6

chips wh i ch wi ll cover the 12 nu m bers in this se cti o n

For this opti o n you must ch oo se betwe en : straight up bet (8 chips) or split bet (5 chips) L es v o i s i n s d u z é ro Z e ro ’ s n e i g h b o u r s L e t i e r s d u c y l i n d re The third of the wheel L es o r p h e l i n s The o r p h a n s T h e f i n a l es

Finale 7-8-9 and 22

The 22, being po s i ti o n ed in a se ction wh ere there are a lot of final nu m bers 7-8-9, a n ot h er classic c a ll is “ Finale 7-8-9 and 22”, or 10 game ch i p s.

Minimum and maximum bets

If the nu m bers on the layout are a rra n ged in increasing nu m eri c a l

o rd er, the distri bu tion of the nu m bers on the wh e el is a n a rchical, save two excepti o n s :

- none of the nu m bers a re co n se c u tive - wh en the wh e el is divi d ed i n to two pa rts from 2 on one

side and zero on the ot h er, the total of each side is

333

It is custo m a ry in the event of a win to give a tip on a stra i ght up bet.

The pl ayer calls :

- “Pour le perso n n el ”

( For the perso n n el) and the dealers reply :

- “ Perso n n el, merci ”.

( Perso n n el, thank you )

W h en the table is call ed a 20f table, for exa m ple, this means that the m i n i mum stakeis 20 fra n cs. The m a xi mum stakefor each co m bi n a tion is determ i n ed a cco rding to a coef f i ci en ti n d i c a ted in the table bel ow.

A similar table appe a rs on every table layout, so you can ch e ck the stake s .
