Roulette is primarily a game of luck, as the outcome of each spin is determined by random chance. The layout of the wheel and the distribution of numbers are designed to ensure randomness and make it difficult to predict where the ball will land.

Say a single-number bet has a 35:1 payout, and you betR$1. If you win, you'll get your money back plusR$35. Another example: If you win aR$100 bet (for a 35:1 payout), you get a total of $3,600 ($3,500 profit plus theR$100 you initially bet).
