Two sections make up the roulette table

Squares showing numbers and colors corresponding to the number and color pockets on the roulette wheel. These squares take up the most space on the layout. Unlike the wheel, the numbers on the table run in sequential order in rows of three. For example, in the third row from the top in Figure 9-2, you find the number 8 in black between 7 and 9. This betting spot corresponds to the black 8 pocket on the wheel, and it’s where you place your chips if you want to bet on the 8.

Bars wrapping around the outside of the rows of sequential numbers.
As you may guess, you place chips in these areas to bet on other aspects of the wheel outcome. For example, placing chips on odd is a bet that the ball lands on an odd number — any odd number.

The table normally accommodates up to six players, but some double table layouts can handle a dozen or more players. Try to get a seat right in the middle so you can place a bet in any area on the table. If you’re stuck sitting at the end of the table or standing, you must slide chips toward the croupier and ask her to place bets on any area that you’re not able to reach.
