Magic Four: The not-so-well-known facts about Online Roulette

Needless to say, roulette is a staple table game in almost—if not every—gaming dimension, whether on-land, virtual, or live online casinos. As one of the most sought-after features in betting, the wheel game is played by all types of casino players: newbies, conservatives, veterans, and high-rollers. However, not everyone has a complete knowledge about the game apart from the basic gaming mechanics. Especially in online casinos, this game has a relatively mysterious background. Here are four of the most interesting facts that you probably did not know about roulette:

1. The game’s wheel was invented by the great Mathematician Blaise Pascal without actually intending it to become a casino game. He was experimenting on the theory of perpetual motion which was his way to prove that a matter can produce energy more than it needs. His experiment failed but with the creativity of casino enthusiasts, it led to the creation of the world’s first roulette game. As an online game, roulette is played with a Random Number Generation (RNG) technology instead of an actual wheel.





2. There are hundreds of variations of online roulette, dwarfing the number of variations that the game has in brick-and-mortar venues. The variety was made in order to provide millions of players across the globe with a wide selection of games where they can pick the ones that will serve their needs best.

3. It is extremely rare for a number to come up in consecutive occurrences. However, in July 2000, that instance was exactly what happened when the number 7 came up six times in a row at Roulette wheel #221 in a land-based casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The odds for this result are out of this world, yet it still happened. Online, such incident has not yet been reported to occur.

4. If you add up all the numbers on a standard roulette wheel, the total would be exactly 666. This is why it is often called as the “devil’s game,” with 666 being usually associated with the aforesaid entity. However, the amount of winnings it produces is largely the opposite of its moniker.
