Bets of French Roulette

Table of Contents

Another huge difference between French Roulette and the American and European layout is the betting boxes. Outside bets are placed on both sides of the grid. Low (Manque), Odd Impair) and Red are located on the top of the grid. High (Passe), Even (Pair), and Black are located at the bottom. 

The words in the betting boxes are written in French. However, there are some French Roulette games where English translations are made available.

French Roulette offers numerous types of bets for you to place. All these bets are categorized under three main categories. These are the inside bets, outside bets, and call bets. The call bets are also referred to as the advanced bets or announced bets.
