Play Online Roulette at JeffBet IE
Roulette is a centuries-old casino game based on the outcome of a wheel spin. Place a single or a combination of bets, then watch as the ball settles in a pocket on the wheel as it slows down. If it lands on your number, you win.
At Jeffbet, we offer many random number generator (RNG) roulette games alongside live dealer roulette, hosted and presented by professional croupiers. Explore your online roulette options at JeffBet in Ireland and learn how this game works.
Rules & Objectives of Online Roulette
Roulette is a game of chance, played at online casinos. At the start of the game, a small ball is released into a spinning wheel with numbered and coloured pockets. The aim is to bet which pocket the ball willland in when the wheel stops spinning.
There are three main types of roulette: French, European, and American. French and European variants have 37 pockets, while American roulette games have 38, with an extra green for double zero. Here’s how the pockets are presented in each game:
| European & French Roulette | American Roulette |
|---|---|
| ⚫️🔴Black & red: Numbers 1-36 | ⚫️🔴Black & red: Numbers 1-36 |
| 🟢Green: One single zero | 🟢Green: One single zero and one double zero |
You must place your bets with chips on the table. There are sections for inside, outside, and special bets. Every roulette wager has unique odds and payouts.
Inside & Outside Bets in Online Roulette
You can place inside and outside bets at the online roulette table:
Inside Bets
Inside bets are wagers on the grid inside the roulette table, hence the name. They have the longest odds and award the biggest payouts as follows:
| Inside Bet | Explained | Potential Payout |
|---|---|---|
| Straight up | A bet on one number | 35:1 |
| Split | A bet on two adjacent numbers | 17:1 |
| Steet | A bet on a row of three numbers | 11:1 |
| Corner | A bet on four numbers that meet at the corner | 8:1 |
| Six line (double street) | A bet on two adjacent rows of six numbers | 5:1 |
Outside Bets
These are bets on the outside section of the roulette table, offering the shortest odds and the lowest payouts. Here’s what you can bet on:
| Outside Bet | Explained | Potential Payout |
|---|---|---|
| Red/black | A bet on all red or black numbers | 1:1 |
| Odd/even | A bet on all odd or even numbers | 1:1 |
| Low/high | A bet on all low (1-18) or all high (19-36) numbers |
1:1 |
| Dozens | A bet on the first (1-12), second (13-24) or third (25-36) twelve numbers |
2:1 |
| Columns | A bet on one vertical column of 12 numbers | 2:1 |
If the ball settles on zero, or the double zero in American roulette, all bets are lost - unless you bet on the zero or double zero for a 35:1 payout.
Side Bets in Roulette Explained
Most roulette games at JeffBet offer additional betting options, known as side bets, call bets, or special bets. These bets are present in most European and French roulette variants and are included on the racetrack next to the main table. Here are your options:
- Voisins du Zero (neighbours of zero): This wager covers 17 numbers closest to the green zero on the wheel.
- Tiers du Cylindre (third of the wheel): This bet includes 12 numbers directly opposite zero on the roulette wheel layout.
- Orphelins (orphans): This is a bet on eight “orphaned” numbers not part of the Voisins du Zero or Tiers du Cylindre bet.
- Jeu Zero (zero game): This is a smaller version of the Voisins du Zero bet, focusing on the numbers immediately next to the zero pocket.
- Neighbours: A flexible bet where you select a specific number, covering the numbers immediately adjacent to it on both sides.
Tips & Advice for Playing Roulette Online
Use these expert JeffBet tips to help you as you play roulette online:
- Decide on a baseline: Before playing online roulette, set your limits and decide on a baseline. Base this decision on your available bankroll, risk tolerance, and the amount you can afford to lose. Ideally, your baseline should be 1-3% of your bankroll, so if you have €100 to play with, limit your wagers to no more than €1 to €3 per roulette game.
- Gamble responsibly: Setting limits and sticking to them is crucial to responsible gambling at JeffBet. To help you, you can activate the responsible gambling tools in our Bet Smart Hub.
- Place side bets sparingly: Side bets in roulette can quickly eat away at your available bankroll. So, unless you have sufficient funds to cover them each time you play, use side bets sparingly to preserve your bankroll.
Strategies for Bankroll Management
While roulette is a game of chance, you can employ advanced approaches to strategise and manage your bankroll efficiently. Note that these strategies are only viable when placing even-money roulette wagers:
Martingale
This is one of the roulette table's oldest and most established betting systems. You double your wager after every loss, aiming for a single win to recover your previous losses to gain a profit equal to your original stake. This high-risk approach requires sufficient bankroll to sustain losing streaks, so it’s best suited to high rollers.
Paroli (Reverse Martingale)
The Paroli takes the opposite approach to the Martingale, which is why it’s sometimes called the reverse Martingale. You double your stake after each win and return to the base wager following a loss. The idea is to maximise profit during winning streaks and limit exposure during losing runs.
D’Alembert
This is a more measured approach with slightly less risk. It’s a unit-based progression strategy that requires you to increase your wager by one unit after each loss. If you win, you decrease it by one unit and continue this pattern. For instance, if your base unit is €1 and you’ve just lost a €5 bet, your next wager would be €6. The D’Alembert approach is less risky than the Martingale, resulting in fewerbankroll swings.
Fibonacci
Inspired by the Fibonacci sequence of numbers (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, etc.), this methodical approach to roulette can also help you recover losses. Every time you lose, you move forward one number in the sequence. If you win, you move back two places. This approach focuses on gradual recovery rather than rapid gains, making it a more suitable option for most players.

The History of Roulette in a Nutshell
Roulette traces its origins back to France in the 18th century. The game was created after Blaise Pascal’s attempts to invent a perpetual motion machine. These experiments led to the creation of the first roulette wheel, and the first games were probably played in Paris during the early 1720s.
By the 1800s, roulette had spread throughout Europe and had become a mainstay in the casinos of Monte Carlo. French immigrants then introduced the game to the United States, where it was Americanised on the streets of New Orleans.
Toward the end of the 19th century, roulette arrived in Ireland, where it quickly caught on. The 1845 Gaming Act, which permitted gambling in private clubs, ensured the game flourished across the country. Since then, roulette has remained one of the most popular casino games in Ireland.
