French Roulette rules is very much like for European roulette. It has the same 37 numbered wheel with one zero but another table layout for outside bets.
The object of the game is still the same - to predict which number out of possible 37 the ball will land on.
But of course, there is one remarkable difference - THEY SPEAK FRENCH! So, if you want to play French roulette you should know the French terms for standard bets.
The player odds in French roulette are lower than the odds in American roulette. The wheel has (like European roulette) only one zero, and players loose only 50 of their even-money bets if the wheel stops on zero! This is known as the "La Partage" rule.
