The Dealer

Dealers are asked to keep the wheel moving all the time, even between spins. They spin the ball in the opposite directions the wheel-head travels. This causes the ball to jump and spin before landing on a number.

The dealer notes the winning number with a marker. Try to wait until the dealer removes the marker before placing new bet!

Playing Tips

If the number you wish to bet is already covered with chips, do not worry. It is permissible to stack your chips on top of the other chips. That is why you have your own color chips.

You are permitted to make bets until the dealer calls out “No More Bets.”

Roulette systems like the Six-Pack Plus are interesting, however, keep in mind that the house always has the advantage in online gambling Malaysia.
