What is Premium French Roulette?

Roulette originated in France over 200 years ago and Premium French Roulette is a return to the game’s origins. Keep reading to learn more about the rules of the game and special features it has.

How to Play Premium French Roulette

In many ways, Premium French Roulette it is the same as European Roulette, it is played with a wheel featuring 37 numbered segments and players bet upon where a ball will come to rest when spun within this wheel.

To make betting more interesting the numbered segments are coloured. The number zero is green while the other numbers are either red or black. Furthermore, the numbers have a specific layout in the betting area. This is done to create interesting groupings of numbers that players can then bet upon. As a result in addition to betting on individual numbers players can also bet on general groups such as Odds, Evens, Reds or Blacks or more specific groups based upon the layout of the betting area. Because of this, there are a huge number of types of bet in Premium French Roulette and they are worth studying in order to improve betting strategies.

One feature that sets Premium French Roulette apart is the “La Partage” rule and it can be of great help to players. If the ball comes to rest on the number zero then players will receive half of all even money bets back. Furthermore, in keeping with the spirit of the game, all the bets have French names and the betting area is labelled in French.
