Live Roulette: Wheel, Bets and Payouts Explained
Quick Summary
- Roulette is a single-ball wheel game: you bet on where the ball lands, from one number to large groups of numbers.
- Inside bets pay more but hit less often; outside bets pay less and hit more often.
- A single-zero wheel has a lower house edge than a double-zero wheel, so check which one a table uses.
- Open the live lobby to see which roulette tables BEE999 lists today.
Roulette is one of the oldest casino games and one of the easiest to follow on a live stream. A dealer spins the wheel, launches a ball, and everyone at the table waits to see which numbered pocket it settles in. As BEE999's official partner, this guide explains the layout, the main bet types, how payouts relate to probability, and what to look for in a table's rules before you place your first chip.
The wheel and the betting layout
A roulette wheel has numbered pockets alternating between red and black, plus one green zero on a European-style wheel, or a zero and a double zero on an American-style wheel. The betting layout is a grid of the same numbers, and every spot on it is a different bet.
For example, if you place a chip directly on 17, you win only if the ball lands on 17. If you place it on the red box, you win if the ball lands on any red pocket. The zero is what gives the casino its built-in edge, because zero loses for most outside bets.
Inside bets
Inside bets are placed on the numbers themselves, in the main grid. They carry larger payouts because they cover fewer pockets. The common ones are:
- Straight up: one number, the highest payout on the table.
- Split: a chip on the line between two adjacent numbers.
- Street: a row of three numbers.
- Corner: four numbers meeting at a point.
- Line: two adjoining rows, six numbers in total.
Outside bets
Outside bets sit around the edge of the grid and cover big groups of numbers. Red or black, odd or even, and low or high (the first or second half of the numbers) each cover nearly half the wheel and usually pay even money. Dozens and columns cover twelve numbers each and pay a higher multiple.
These bets win far more often, which makes sessions feel steadier, but zero still loses most of them. Some tables apply a rule where an even-money bet is partly returned when zero lands. If that applies, it will be written in the table's rules, and it lowers the effective cost of those bets.
Single zero, double zero and the maths
The difference between wheels matters more than any betting pattern. A single-zero wheel has thirty-seven pockets, giving a house edge of about 2.7 percent on standard bets. A double-zero wheel has thirty-eight, which lifts it to roughly 5.3 percent. Those are standard long-run figures for the game, and they apply equally to every bet type on the same wheel.
That is why strategies such as doubling after a loss do not change the outlook. Each spin is independent, the wheel has no memory, and table limits cap how far a progression can go. If you want to understand the idea behind that, our gambling budget guide explains why a fixed stake plan is more useful.
Live roulette versus automated tables
In live roulette a real dealer spins the wheel on camera, while some lobbies also list automated or virtual tables that use a random number generator. The bets are identical, but the live version adds a chat window, statistics boards and sometimes bonus multiplier rounds. Statistics boards showing hot and cold numbers are entertainment only.

Questions Players Ask
What is the difference between European and American roulette?
European roulette has a single zero, while American roulette has a zero and a double zero. The extra pocket roughly doubles the house edge, so a single-zero table is the better value if both are offered.
Which roulette bet has the best chance of winning?
Outside bets such as red or black cover nearly half the wheel, so they win most often. They pay less per win, though, and zero still beats them, so no bet changes the long-run edge.
Can you predict roulette results from past spins?
No. Each spin is independent, so the numbers shown on a statistics board do not make any pocket more likely next time. Treat those boards as part of the atmosphere, not as a guide.
