Playtech Roulette

One of the most popular providers of online casino software is Playtech and they are at the center of several of the casinos that we recommend on the Online Roulette home page.

There are numerous different roulette games that you can play at Playtech casinos and there are numerous upsides to the games when compared to other casino software providers. First let's look at some of these upsides and then we will look at the games.

Upsides Of Playtech Software

The first major advantage of Playtech is that the have a free spin feature. Obviously this means that you can just spin the wheel for free as long as you want. Some casino platforms require you to place a bet on every single spin which is annoying and inconvenient.

Another advantage that Playtech has is that you can turn off the animation. This means that you don't need to watch the ball spin around and you can potentially get hundreds of spins a minute if you can hit the spin button fast enough.

Games

There's always plenty of roulette games to play at Playtech casinos; it usually varies between 8 and 10 between different casinos. For our games run through here, we're going to be using Betfred which is not only our favourite Playtech casino, but our favourite casino full stop.

European Roulette - This is the most common version of the game with a 2.7% house advantage. Some Playtech casinos offer multiple versions of the European game in the form of the "standard game" and the "premium game." There's no real difference between these games except for a change in graphics.

French Roulette - This is the best version of the game that you can play due to the house edge being just 1.35%. Some Playtech casinos also have two versions of French roulette for the same reasons described above.

American Roulette - The worst game that you can play and it should be avoided. This is because the house edge stands at 5.26% due to the fact that there's an extra zero but the pay outs aren't altered accordingly.

3D Roulette - This is basically another European game but the graphics are different in a semi successful attempt to be 3D.

Mini Roulette - As the name suggests, this is a smaller version of the standard roulette game with just 13 slots. Despite the noticeable size difference, the "mini" game and a standard European game are not so different in terms of payouts and how you actually play.

Roulette Pro - This is another European game only this one has the additional bets: Voisins Du Zero, Tier, Orphelins, Neighbors, Final Bet. More about these can be learned on the page about roulette bets.

Multi Player Games - A few select Playtech casinos offer multi  player games. Basically you play a regular European game but there are other people involved as well and you can see what they're betting on.

Live Dealer Games - These are games where you can see a real roulette wheel and a real dealer. Only offered by the leading brands who can afford to host such games. Betfred is the best casino for live games.
