| Premise |  |
The game of Multi Player European Roulette is played by spinning a small ball on a round wheel with thirty-seven numbered slots. When the wheel stops, the ball comes to rest in one of these slots. The object of Multi Player European Roulette is to correctly predict the slot in which the ball will land. By predicting the right number, you earn a payoff on your bet. The size of the payoff depends on how the bet was placed.
| How to Play | |
Your Littlewoods Casino online chips are stacked by denomination (£1, £5, £25, £100, £500) at the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. Select the amount you would like to wager on a given roll(s) by clicking the left mouse button on the chip of that denomination. This activates that specific chip denomination. Next, place your bet on the Roulette table by clicking on a bet field. To specify a bet that does not equal to an existing chip denomination, simply click on another chip denomination after placing your previous chip on the table. For example, to bet £30, click on the £25 chip and place it on the table then click on the £5 chip and place it on top of the £25 chip. You may repeat your last bet by simply hitting the "0" button of your numeric keyboard. Other numeric keyboard shortcuts are summarized below.
To place a bet in Littlewoods Casino online Multi Player European Roulette, place your chips on the table as described above. Depending on where you choose to place your chips, you can "cover" (bet on) anywhere from one to eighteen numbers with a single bet.
You can spin the roulette wheel by pressing the "Spin" button in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen or by clicking on the roulette wheel. The history of the previous winning numbers is displayed in a table above the game menu. There are three different colored numbers in the history table. The Yellow colored numbers mean that they belong to the Black set of numbers. The Red colored numbers mean they belong to the Red set of numbers and the Green colored number is '0'. The "Pass" button may be used to spin the wheel without putting a bet on the table.
You can place eight different kinds of bets on the Multi Player European Roulette table. Each type of bet covers a certain range of numbers, and each type has its own payoff rate. The short lines of three numbers each are called rows on the board, while the longer lines, each holding twelve, are called columns. The first five types of bets are all made on the numbered space or on the lines between them and are called inside bets, while the last three types are made on the special boxes below and to the right of the board and are called outside bets. These bets are tabulated below:
 |
|
| Bet Type | Explanation |
|
|
| Straight Up | Place your chips directly on any single number (including zero). |
|
|
| Split Bet | Place your chips on the line between any two numbers. |
|
|
| Street Bet | Place your chips at the end of any row of numbers. A street bet covers three numbers. |
|
|
| Corner Bet | Place your chips at the corner where four numbers meet. All four numbers are covered. |
|
|
| Line Bet | Place your chips at the end of two rows at the intersection between them. A line bet covers all the numbers in either row, for a total of six. |
|
|
| Column Bet | Placing a chip in one of the boxes at the end of the columns covers all the numbers in that column, a total of twelve. (The zero is not covered by any of the columns). |
|
|
| Dozen Bet | Placing a chip in the box marked 12L covers numbers 1 to 12, 12M covers numbers 13 to 24, and 12H covers numbers 25 to 36. |
|
|
| Red/Black, Even/Odd, Low/High | A chip placed in one of the six boxes at the side of the board covers the half of the board described in that box. (The zero is not covered by any of these boxes.) Each box covers eighteen numbers. Low covers numbers 1 to 18. High covers numbers 19 to 36. |

Once a spin is complete, the winning number will be noted on the roulette table with a marker. Winning bets will have a "W" chip placed on top of them.

| Zero Rule | |
Wagers on red, black, even, odd, low, and high shall be lost if the roulette ball comes to rest in the compartment marked zero (0).
| Racetrack Bets | |
Racetrack or horseshoe bets are bets that are placed by clicking on a specific number in the racetrack. This Racetrack field appears in the top of the roulette game window. Each bet involves 5 chips. One chip is placed on the number that the user clicks on and one chip on each of the 2 numbers on either side of the number that the user clicked on, and one chip on each of the 2 numbers beside those numbers.
The table below shows the sequence of numbers on the Roulette wheel. Read clockwise starting from zero à left to right à Row 1, 2, 3. The letter R indicates a RED number and the letter B indicates a BLACK number.
| 0 | 32R | 15B | 19R | 4B | 21R | 2B | 25R | 17B | 34R | 6B | 27R | 13B |
| 36R | 11B | 30R | 8B | 23R | 10B | 5R | 24B | 16R | 33B | 1R | 20B | 14R |
| 31B | 9R | 22B | 18R | 29B | 7R | 28B | 12R | 35B | 3R | 26B | --- | --- |
Example:
Action: The user clicks on the '33' spot in the racetrack with the £5 chip cursor.
Result: A £5 chip is placed on each of the following numbers in the main number grid on the table: '20', '1', '33', '16', and '24'. Each of these bets acts like a normal straight-up one number bet.
