Roulette Payouts & Odds Chart
Every roulette bet pays differently, but on the same wheel they all carry the same house edge - 5.26% on an American (double-zero) wheel. The payouts below come straight from our trainer. The number that actually changes your odds isn't the bet, it's the wheel.

American vs European: the only number that matters
The edges above are for an American wheel with both 0 and 00. A European wheel has a single 0, which cuts the edge on every one of these bets to 2.70% - almost half. Same payouts, same bets, far cheaper to play. See American vs European roulette.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a straight-up bet pay in roulette?
A straight-up bet (a single number) pays 35:1. It carries the same 5.26% house edge on an American wheel as every other roulette bet. The big payout doesn't make it a better or worse value, just a swingier one.
Which roulette bet has the best odds?
None has a better house edge: every bet on the same wheel is identical (5.26% American, 2.70% European). The real choice is the wheel: play single-zero European whenever it's offered.
Do roulette payouts change between casinos?
The payouts (35:1 straight, 2:1 dozens, 1:1 even-money, etc.) are standard. What changes is the wheel (single-zero vs double-zero), and that's what moves the house edge from 2.70% to 5.26%.
