The  origins  and history of roulette are unfortunately lost. The Chinese  might have invited  it and traders brought it into Europe.  However several  versions of a wheel and a ball were invented between  the 17th and  18th centuries. Paris was  the first to introduce roulette into its casinos at the beginning  of the  19th century.   

Roulette, both the American and European versions are the world’s simplest  casino games to  play. It is still most widely played everywhere.  At the roulette table you can  place your bets on different numbers,  combinations of numbers, and red or black  colors. You may bet  on high or low numbers, odds or evens, dozens and columns. A roulette wheel consists of 37 or 38 numbered slots: from 0 (or 00, depending  on  which type of roulette you are playing) to 36.
The roulette betting layout consists of every individual number as well as a host of "outside" or combinations of numbers. After the players make their bets the dealer spins the roulette wheel and a ball and after several seconds the ball will land in one of the numbered slots.
 
You  don’t  have to think of patterns or figure strategies out in  order to be able to play  this game. It is based on luck especially  that each spin on the roulette is a  new spin, and the result is  not determined by previous spins.
 
It is time  to  place your lucky numbers and have fun!
