The third reference – Three numbers appearing horizontally on the Roulette wheel adds to six, and the numbers 28, 29, and 30 are inscribed horizontally towards the rear. The sum of these numbers is 87, and when you add 8 and 7, the total is 15. This wheel has 38 numbered slots in total, containing the numbers from 1 to 36 (red or black color) and the two green numbers 0 and 00. The numbers in American roulette go around the wheel in this order.
From there, it gets a more complex and—at times—a little arbitrary. For instance, adding any three numbers that appear horizontally together on the Roulette table can be related to the number six. The numbers 28, 29, and 30 appear horizontally toward the end of the table. The total for those three particular numbers added together is 87. The French wheel has 36 numbers plus a single 0; the American wheel has 36 numbers plus 0 and 00. All bets at both wheels are paid at odds that would be true if only the 36 numbers existed. The house advantage in roulette comes from the 0 on the French wheel and the 0 and 00 on the American wheel.
There are scores of table games that are extremely popular amongst online casino fanatics, including Poker, Blackjack, and of course the much talked about Roulette. You may know that the Roulette wheel which is embossed with numbers can bring you good luck, but are you aware of the fact that the total of all these digits adds up to the ‘number of the beast, 666’?
Although the layout is not the same for different Roulette wheels, the numbers add up to 666. Here’s how.
The origins of the Roulette wheel
Probably one of the oldest casino games, the Roulette wheel still continues to attract millions of players across the globe. The origins of Roulette go right back into the 1600s France. Roulette was invented by the famous mathematician Blaise Pascal who wanted to create the perpetual motion machine. In 1842, Francois and Lois Blanc redesigned the table of the game to add a zero, securing the house edge for the table owner.
What are the Roulette wheel numbers?
You must first have a knowledge of the standard numbers on the Roulette wheel so that you can easily understand the Roulette wheel number phenomenon.
The pockets of the Roulette wheel are numbered from 0 to 36. The odd numbers are coloured red, while even are black in colour. Also, there is a single pocket in European Roulette which is numbered as zero, and there are two zero pockets in the American variant. The pocket number order in most Roulette variants follows a certain set pattern.
How did the 666-calculation come into play?
When players talk about the addition of the standard Roulette wheel numbers, they usually refer to some mystical powers. It’s said that the number 666 is associated with the devil, and became wide-spread when Francois and Blanc (famous magicians) brought the game of Roulette to Bad Homburg and subsequently to Monaco. With the state government operating the gambling venue, Blanc was right under the spotlight. Some people said that he conspired with the devil to learn the secrets of the roulette wheel.

The first reference – Think of numbers from 1 to 36 on the table. The first number 1 and the last number 36 when added sum up to 37. Likewise, number 2 and 35 add up to 37, 3 and 34 sums up to 37, and so on. Now, following the pattern when you arrive at 18+19, you again get a total of 37.
The second reference – When you add any three numbers appearing diagonally on the table, the result will be number 6. The number 12, 14, and 16 all appear diagonally to add up to 42. And when you add number 2 and 4, the result is 6 of course!
The third reference – Three numbers appearing horizontally on the Roulette wheel adds to six, and the numbers 28, 29, and 30 are inscribed horizontally towards the rear. The sum of these numbers is 87, and when you add 8 and 7, the total is 15. Now, if you add 5 and 1, the sum is 6.
IntroductionSome single-zero roulette wheels allow a convenient way to bet on a large sector of wheel. Each sector bet is a combination of conventional bets that cover a particular sequence of numbers on the wheel. While these bets could be made by hand, a table that allows sector betting will conveniently divide up a single wager into the requisite smaller wagers to cover a sector. Following is some roulette terminology to help explain how the sector bets are comprised:
Jeu ZeroRoulette Wheel Numbers Total
Jeu Zero translates to “game zero” in English. It is a way of covering the seven numbers from 12 to 15 on the wheel. Bets should be evenly divisible by four. It is achieved by dividing the total wager into the following bets:
The following table shows the overall return table for a bet of four units. The return column is the product of the probability, win, and ¼. The reason for dividing by four is to show the return compared to the total four-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

Voisins du zéro
Voisins du zéro translates to “neighbors zero” in English. Note that the Voisins du zéro sector overlaps the Jeu Zero sector. It is a way of covering the 17 numbers from 22 to 25 on the wheel. Bets should be evenly divisible by nine. It is achieved by dividing the total wager into the following bets:

The following table shows the overall return table for a bet of nine units. The return column is the product of the probability, win, and 1/9. The reason for dividing by nine is to show the return compared to the total four-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

Le Tiers du Cylindre
Le tiers du cylinder translates to “third of the wheel” in English. It is a way of covering the 12 numbers from 27 to 33 on the wheel. Bets should be evenly divisible by six. It is achieved by dividing the total wager into the following bets six split bets: 5-8, 10-11, 13-16, 23-24, 27-30, 33-36.
The following table shows the overall return table for a bet of six units. The return column is the product of the probability, win, and 1/6. The reason for dividing by six is to show the return compared to the total four-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

Orphelins
Orphelins translates to “orphans” in English. It is a way of covering two sections on the wheel that are not covered by any of the other sector bets, namely 17 to 6 and 1 to 9. Bets should be evenly divisible by five. It is achieved by dividing the total wager into the following bets:
American Roulette Wheel Numbers
Note that the number 17 is covered by two different spit bets. The following table shows the overall return table for a bet of five units. The return column is the product of the probability, win, and 1/5. The reason for dividing by five is to show the return compared to the total four-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

NeighborsHighest Number On Roulette Wheel
Surrounding the five sector bets mentioned above will be what looks like a racetrack consisting of all numbers from 0 to 37 in the same order as on the wheel.
The purpose of the racetrack is to conveniently bet any consecutive five numbers on the wheel. These are known as Neighbors bets. For example, if you wish to cover the five consecutive numbers with 23 in the middle (30, 8, 23, 10, 5) you would make a Neighbors bet on 23. Such a bet should be evenly divisible by five, which will be divided into five straight up bets on each of the five numbers in the sector.
At some Internet casinos and electronic roulette games, Neighbors bets may be made to cover consecutive sectors of 3, 5, or 7 numbers. Bets should be evenly divisible by the size of the sector.
The following table shows the return for Neighbors bets on a three-number sector. The return column is the product of the win, probability and 1/3. The reason for dividing by 3 is to show the return relative to a three-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

The following table shows the return for Neighbors bets on a five-number sector. The return column is the product of the win, probability and 1/5. The reason for dividing by 5 is to show the return relative to a five-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.

The following table shows the return for Neighbors bets on a seven-number sector. The return column is the product of the win, probability and 1/7. The reason for dividing by 7 is to show the return relative to a seven-unit bet. The lower right cell shows a house edge of 2.70%.
