Roulette

Roulette is an undesirable game because the casino edge is high, 5.26%, and the game plays fast.

The green zeros on a roulette wheel are what give the house its advantage. If there were no zeros, players could wager simultaneously on red and black, break even, and enjoy free cocktails all night long. Add the zeros and this strategy is no longer viable, because when a zero comes up, all bets on the layout (except those on zero) lose. European wheels have only one zero, while the majority of American wheels have two. The casino edge for the standard double-zero game that you find throughout Las Vegas is 5.26%. A single-zero wheel lowers that edge to 2.7%.

Single-zero wheels are relatively rare in Las Vegas. And even where they exist, they're often dealt only for high stakes or during restricted hours. Some are opened only upon specific request from high rollers. Following are the casinos in Las Vegas where you can find single-zero wheels:
