Roulette is definitely one of the easiest casino games. Its rules are so simple that you don't need to even memorize it all. You only have to bet, see the dealer spin the wheel, then let the ivory ball decide your wager's fate. Roulette is also famed for its very fast pace and its near fifty-fifty chances of winning. Thus, many gamblers have flocked to it, admiring its streamlined design and enjoying the very exciting feel there is in every spin.
That said, one can conclude that roulette is a very successful casino game. It's now so popular in casinos that almost nobody remembered how it started from a derivative of a perpetual motion machine created by the French inventor Blaise Pascal. Who can blame this majority of roulette players? After all, roulette has evolved far beyond its origins and has given way to countless variations.
Normally, people will always think of American and European roulette once roulette variations come to mind. American roulette is a version known for its two zero slots and for having a high house edge, while European roulette is a more internationally popular variant for having a single zero roulette wheel, and therefore, higher winning odds. However, these aren't the only forms of roulette. There are countless others, some of which have been popularized by online roulette casinos.
One of these variations is the double bonus spins roulette, which as we can agree, has a rather mouthful name. This version of the casino game is distinct for having a yellow "B" slot, which is considered a single bet but with a higher payout. This is 50% larger than the usual pocket, giving the ball better chances of landing on it. Once the ball lands on this slot, you'll be awarded with two free spins, whether you have placed chips on it or in a different number. As you have probably guessed, this feature is where the double bonus spins roulette got its name.
As previously mentioned, you can also place a bet on the lone yellow slot. You can actually make three kinds of wagers on this particular betting space. The first is the Straight yellow bet that wins 12:1, or twelve times your bet. However, if the yellow comes up again in the resulting bonus spin, you'll win 120:1, and if the same occurs in the third spin, you'll get a whopping 1200:1 win!
The other two bets are the Split and Trio yellow bets. The first is a bet placed on the yellow B plus another placed on green 0 or 00, paying out 6:1. The second is played in a similar manner, this time covering both green slots and pays 4:1.
As you can notice, double spins bonus roulette is played on an American roulette wheel and that perhaps is its biggest disadvantage. Fortunately, what extra house edge created by the zeros and the yellow slot is negated by the rare bonus spins, should yellow B ever come up at all.
Nevertheless, that doesn't mean that you won't find enjoyment in this version of roulette. The free bonus certainly is an interesting spin to the game, and the progressive win on yellow is something you'll really hope for.

Can Live Roulette Be Played From Home?
The gambling world of today is rife with talk of online casinos. These Internet-based gambling establishments aren't that new. They've been existing for over a decade now, well before the World Wide Web has become a mainstream medium of information exchange. The thriving number of subscribers these casinos have are now augmented by the millions of gamblers not beyond the Internet's reach.
Online casinos have brought with them various games of chance, all in digitized form but are played the same as they would be in land-based casinos. One of these is roulette which quickly became one of the most popular online casino games. It's not actually strange as roulette is already famous in land-based gambling establishments, going so far as to have ended up as a common representation of casinos. Roulette's solid reputation can be traced from its mere simplicity and fast-paced gameplay - characteristics that made roulette look boring to non-gamblers, but very addictive even to those who have just tried the game.
Online roulette is simply roulette played over the Internet, regardless of the location. These games are often played on an online client, and very rarely on a web browser. The clients are usually composed of a graphic wheel and betting board, plus a ton of menus every roulette fan can recognize. Also, there is virtually no dealer so you can bet as much as you like and spin the wheel whenever you want. Being online, this form of roulette makes for a good alternative to the one being played on the casino, minus all the hassle and extra expenses.
However, one can inevitably find online roulette wanting in the long run. First is that there is zero human element present that one can interact with. The player only has to deal with the program, making it look like just another video game. Second is that it lacks the merry atmosphere of the casino, a feature that live gambling establishments use as a draw to attract and keep more players. Playing at home with no more than some ambient casino music truly won't compare to playing in the roulette table within a land-based casino's dynamic environment. Third is that, in connection to the previous two, online roulette lacks socialization, but this may not matter to a good number of roulette enthusiasts.
Nevertheless, an interesting question with regards to this is, "Can I play live roulette at home?" While this can be perceived as an oxymoron, fact is that one can always do so. In fact, we can term this form of the game "online live roulette". Here, one does not simply interact with an online client but actually play in a casino from some other place, like home. Instead of being physically present in a gambling establishment, the player is given a live feed of the roulette table, with clear view of the bets, the dealer, and other players. Thus, it satisfies many players' need of human-to-human interaction. With this, you are able to communicate your bets with the dealer, or send out messages to the gamblers you may or may not know.
Also, the game is played on a physical roulette wheel, thus ensuring a totally random play. Simpler online roulette games in contrast presents no more than a random number generator in graphical form. Unlike the roulette wheel in live casinos, these may follow a pattern and can be exploited.
Online live roulette reintroduces the casino atmosphere to online roulette. This is a great way of playing roulette, something that's suitable for those who have left the casino to embrace the change that is online roulette.

Proper Behavior on the Roulette Table
Roulette is an easy and popular game wherein each spin decides the fortune of its player. The quick pacing of the game and its simplicity has managed to give it a large fan base, all of which are active players dedicated to the game. In casinos, a crowd these gamblers are a regular feature of roulette tables.
These players come from different walks of life and are of varying disposition. These are those you'll never have to care about when playing roulette online but those you'll inevitably have some interaction with if you decide to go and play the game in a land-based gambling establishment. For the latter case, you really will have to behave carefully when around these players regardless of their social status, lest you offend them or ruin the fun for everyone. Thus, a short guideline on proper roulette etiquette is in order. Here's how you should act in any given roulette table, so you can have fun as well as literally play it safe:
1. Be considerate to other players.
The first rule of playing roulette is not what's written in the instructional guide. It is no more than basic courtesy, which is simply treating your fellow players and the dealer with respect and consideration. Ask nicely when you request for something; be careful that you do not accidentally cause verbal or physical offense; and you should never, ever take a seat when you're not playing - that's for the paying customer, and freeloading is one universally unacceptable behavior.
2. Bet only during the allotted time.
Normally, you are only given a minute to bet, which may extend when the dealer loses track of time. However, once the dealer declares "No more bets", then it's time to stop changing the location of your chips. You'll be easily accused of cheating once you move your bets after that, most especially while the wheel is spinning.
3. Don't be an overenthusiastic winner.
Winning is great and all, but avoid being so loud and boisterous when the ball lands on your bet. This causes other players, most especially the losing ones to get annoyed and even angry, so just try your best to keep it down and not get carried away in your emotions.
4. Don't be a sore loser.
Avoid yelling or cursing when you lose. Everyone understands how hard it is to lose money to the table and everyone knows how it feels. Understand that roulette is a totally random game of chance, and avoid giving others the bad mood with vulgar vitriol.
5. Be nice to the dealer.
Roulette dealers work their rear ends for hours at standard rates just to give you your dose of casino entertainment. Show them courtesy in the form of a smile or a nice tip when you're winning big. They sure will appreciate that and will treat you and other gamblers better than they would a stranger.
Casinos are more than giant gambling dens. They are also venues of social interaction, and the roulette table reflects it pretty well. Proper behavior in a table is therefore necessary, unless you want to end your day and that of other players around you in a bad note.
