Allow me to point out some facts about electronic roulette. If anyone out there notices any inaccuracy in my following statement, please feel free to comment, so we, as a community, can gain knowledge on this subject. I am presenting this comment as a contribution to an open dialogue on playing electronic roulette. I consider all of us as equals, and feel that if we approach this discussion with a sense of kinship and comradery, we can all gain in our shared knowledge and potentially win more!

I live and play in the midwest in the United States, primarily Kansas and Missouri. Gaming laws is your area may differ, but probably not by much.

First, electronic roulette is not considered a "table game", as defined by gaming law. Feel free to research the exact law or legal definition of "table game" or "electronic gaming device", but rest assured, they are two very distinct gaming product that operates under distinct gaming rules/regulations/laws. Electronic roulette is an "electronic gaming device" (slot machine, generally speaking) that emulates the table game Roulette. What's the house advantage on American roulette? 5.27%?, as a table game, with a standard payout scale. Electronic Roulette is a slot machine, which operates under slot machine regulations. In my area, I believe it's a minimum 80% payout percentage. It may be different in your area, which makes it a fact that the payout percentage in any given electronic gaming device can be set by it's operator, in compliance with the regions' local gaming laws. IGT electronic roulette banks can be operating in California in compliance with local gaming regulations and be set at a 93% payout percentage while in Missouri the exact same year, make and model IGT Roulette network will be running at a predetermined 88% payout percentage, as determined by the casino operator.

So, how can an electronic roulette system, regardless of manufacturer, insure specific payout percentages? The same way any other electronic gaming device does. I'm not well versed on the programming aspect of slot machines, so maybe one of our fellow brothers in gaming can elaborate on this later. I think we can agree payout percentages are determined, in part, by a RNG or Pseudo RNG. What makes electronic roulette interesting is that the result of any spin (either win or loss) cannot be represented by a mishmash of various unrelated symbols, like in a video or analog slot machine... If you bet red and the PRNG outcome determines the spin is a loss, that system has to be able to represent that outcome very specifically, by having the ball land in either black or green. It is a fact that the only way to guarantee ball placement it to have ball and wheel control. If advantage players can use the mathematics of physics to determine the general area a ball may drop on a wheel, how accurate do you think the program which spins the wheel and releases the ball can be. And that is not even taking into consideration the available physical manipulation methods that can be employed, i.e. magnets, airjets, etc. Go to the United states Patent office website and look up any electronic roulette wheel. Look at the diagrams. It is all there in black and white. The wheels are highly precise instruments where velocity is controlled and adjusted in real time, and works in conjunction with mathematically timed ball release and ball speed, in order to land the ball on the wheel to accurately represent the chosen outcome of the PRNG for any given spin.

So, is electronic roulette rigged? If this is all true, isn't that cheating? NOPE! Not at all! It is not the casinos fault that we misunderstood the gaming product they offer in electronic roulette. In my opinion, casinos are not guilty of misrepresenting the game they offer , but they bank on the fact that the average player mistakenly approaches this game as if it were a table game that has simply been automated. It's shady at the very least...

Having said all that, I do not think playing electronic roulette is a lost cause. The general consensus is true- in the long run, the house has the advantage in roulette, and ultimately, the player will lose....

But this isn't roulette.

This is a slot machine set up to emulate roulette.

What if we, as players, approached this game differently? This is a machine that allows multiple player to bet on the same outcome...

I'm hoping this commentary has sparked some innovative thinking on how to approach this game. I have a couple theories I have been experimenting with and the results have been promising, to say the least!

I look forward to reading any comments or questions, and any positive contribution is greatly appreciated!
