Play Online Casino Roulette With Side Bets

The excitement involved in playing roulette means that there is never a dull moment. Playing online is a different story, you can easily get bored because there is no player interaction involved. Unless you are extremely passionate about the game it is possible to add excitement to the game by using side bets.

Microgaming offer a popular online roulette game called Roulette Royale. The game has progressive jackpot. The rules of the game dictate that a player must place a side bet of $1 with every single spin. Whichever number that is called twice consecutively then the payout will be $15, if it is 3 times then the payout is $200 and if 4 times the payout will be $ 3000. Lastly if the same number is called out 5 times in a row then the player will have hit the progressive jackpot. Apart from getting the jackpot the player will also get the side bets because they paid $1 for each spin done.

The percentage payouts for the side bets are usually very low so players need to be cautioned about this. Do not place a side bet with every spin, do it only when you start to feel bored. The disadvantage of Roulette Royal is that they have made it a compulsory rule that you have to put a side bet with each spin.

WagerWorks have managed to remove this problem by launching a new roulette game. The player can place normal bet with each spin and when they start to feel boredom creeping in then they can use the side bets. Hot streaks are initiated in this game when a number is called out from the 6 groups (1-6, 7-12 and so on). The payout starts from 2X, then keeps increasing with consecutive calls of 12X, 100X, 250X, 1000X and finally 25,000X.
