I need help with Roulette ODDS! THANKS EVERYONE!?

Question

At the casino I was at the pay 1 to 1 for black or red....what exactly does this mean? Does this mean if I put $100 down all I can is win my $100 or that means if I get the right color I will win $200? I am just confused on this. I know if I win on guessing the number I get 35 to 1 odds(put $1 down I get $35).....I am just confused with the colors since if you just win your money back then what is the point to do this? THANKS!

Answer 1

The odds are even, this means you win back however much you stake if it wins. $20.00 on Red, Red comes out, you pick $40.00 off the table, the $20.00 you bet and the $20.00 you won.

Good luck.

Answer 2

yes

Answer 3

okay.  Yes, colors are 1:1.  if you lay a doller down and get it right, you win a dollar.  However, remember the odds are always in favor of the house.  There are still the the "0" green spot to consider.  It is a 1:1 betting ratio, but the odds are slightly less than 50% that you will win.

But if you DO win the color, you do not "just  win your money back."  You double your money.  You win the same amount that you bet, along with getting the money you bet back.  Bet 10 bucks and end up with 20.If you bet on a number and win, you get 35 times the amount you bet in addition to getting your bet back.  Bet 10 bucks and end up with 360.
