If you are familiar with and enjoy any Roulette game then Roulette Royale will astound you with its European wheel and a chance at the big Progressive Jackpot.

Roulette Royale at first glance may seem to be just like any other basic Roulette game, although the two words Roulette and basic should never really be in the same sentence. Roulette Royale is played on what is known as the European wheel, this is a wheel with only one zero. The zero is easily identifiable as it is in a green pocket; all the other pockets are black and red. A wheel with only one zero is thought to have better odds for the player.

The grid where bets are placed is very similar to that of a standard Roulette game but there are two major differences; it is on a red background and there is an extra section on the grid for the Jackpot. In other Roulette games the betting grid is on the traditional green felt. The extra section depicting the Jackpot side bet is under the outside bets and is very noticeable. Other than that the grid looks very similar to a normal Roulette betting grid with places for inside and outside bets.

The big difference between Roulette Royale and other European Roulette games is of course the Progressive Jackpot. When placing a bet in Roulette Royale there is also a compulsory side bet which is added to the Progressive Jackpot. This side bet is always one coin based on the value of coins that the player is using. The potential win from the Progressive Jackpot is displayed very clearly on the screen. If a player does win the Progressive Jackpot by landing the same number five times in a row, then his win must be verified with the casino management and the software support team. Roulette Royale is powered by Microgaming, the leader in online gaming technology and they will check and confirm any Jackpot win. There can be cases of malfunction of the system whereby the win becomes invalid.

The Progressive Jackpot is won if the player lands the same number five times in a row, even if he had not placed a bet on that number. In addition to the large Progressive Jackpot a player also has the chance of winning a part of the Jackpot if he lands two or more of the same number in a row. The payout for these smaller Jackpots is detailed in the Jackpot Payout schedule which is advertised at the casino.

Roulette Royale is one of the easiest games to understand and play at online casinos. Once a player has chosen the coin size that he wants, all that he has to do is decide which numbers and how many he wants to bet on. There are inside bets which are single number bets, three numbers in a row, a square of four numbers or a line of twelve numbers and there are outside bets. Outside bets are bets on a group of numbers, either all red or black numbers, even or odd numbers, low numbers i.e. 1-17 and high numbers 18-36.

To place the bet all that a player has to do is click on the position or number that he wants to bet. The computer will not let you click on a place that is invalid i.e. where a bet cannot be placed. In Roulette Royale there is a button on the screen which lets you know the coverage of the bets you have placed, if you have covered all the options or only a certain percentage of them. This helps a player plan his strategy. Some like to bet on only single numbers whereas others like to bet on a wide range. Remember with each bet that is placed there is also an extra coin that is taken towards the Jackpot side bet.

All of the Roulette games were traditionally games for high rollers, in other words for players with big bucks to spend. Thanks to online casinos like All Jackpots, Roulette and especially Roulette Royale has become accessible to any type of player. Bets can be as little as $1 or as high as $50 and each one gives the player a chance to go for the big Jackpot. Roulette Royale is a game for everyone and provides thrills and excitement for each and every player.
