Classic Roulette (BetGames) Slot Demo & Review

Roulette is one of the most popular live casino games, and BetGames is yet another one of the top providers in the industry to jump on the bandwagon. Now, usually, before I open a BetGames live dealer title, I never know what to expect, so I was surprised when this game is, by and large, an ordinary game of roulette. Maybe the giveaway is in the name ‘classic’. You have your usual roulette inside and outside bets, a race track, and an RTP of 97.305%, which for most roulette games is toned down to 97.3%, and straight-up bets pay the highest value wins of 35/1.

Classic Roulette is the European version of the game, also known as single-zero roulette, which gives you better odds of winning when compared to American Roulette, also known as double-zero roulette. To compare, single-zero roulette only has a house edge of 2.7% (97.3% RTP), while double-zero roulette wheels have a house edge of 5.26% (94.74% RTP). Once you open the game, you may want to watch the action for a few coups because once you get into the action, you only have 15 seconds to place your bets. 

There is a catch to this game as it may look like it is a live dealer game, but in fact it uses CGI technology. All results and dealer actions have been pre-recorded prior to your bets, meaning there is an RNG deciding on the outcome of every coup. When the RNG randomly selects a number using its complex algorithm, the video connected to the number it hits will play, giving the gameplay a live dealer look and feel.

Here on Demoslot, there are plenty of roulette demo games available both from live dealer studios and virtual roulette game developers, thus giving you a chance to make comparisons. For live roulette, you can try the SA Gaming Live Roulette demo, while BetGames has another Live Roulette demo game available. Both games offer single-zero roulette gameplay. For virtual roulette demos, head over to 101 Roulette, 1p Roulette, 10p Roulette, and 20p Roulette and test out the free play versions.

As for stakes and odds, the lowest value bets on BetGames Live Classic Roulette are outside bets, which are a mix of column and dozen bets paying 2:1, and even odds bets paying 1:1, all of which give you a selection of bets with low volatility. For medium to high-volatility bets, there are 5 inside bets paying between 5:1 and 35:1. If you want to spread your bets across sections of the wheel, you can use the racetrack bets, which will place multiple straight-up and split bets, but be aware only one of these bets can win.

The maximum bet combining all inside and outside bets is €10,000 per coup. As for placing bets, the min-max bet amount shows in the bottom left as  €0.10 to €100.00. With that said, on the demo version, there isn’t a €0.10 chip option, so you’ll bet €0.50 to €100.00 per betting option.

How To Play Classic Roulette

Classic Roulette Betgames
Classic Roulette Betgames

BetGames Live Classic Roulette is super easy to play. Select a chip value of 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, or 100, and place it on the betting option you want to stake. You will find the betting board that appears between rounds makes life easy when choosing your inside or outside bets.

The only problem I sometimes had was that the 15 seconds between each coup didn’t give me enough time to ponder which bets I wanted to place. If I decided to change my betting patterns, I just let the next coup go, giving me a little extra time to work out which bets to place.

As most roulette players expect history and stats, BetGames has developed an intuitive results history chart that appears during the 15-second betting phase. Stats include ‘Last 500 Rounds’, ‘Hot and Cold’, and ‘Advanced’ bets. The advanced bet section gives you percentages showing outside bet and racetrack bet results history.


Pros

  • A simple variant of roulette perfect for beginners or advanced players looking for straightforward gameplay
  • An intuitive results history board shows hot and cold numbers and previous results.

Cons

  • The betting time of 15 seconds between coups is low.

Classic Roulette Review Final Thoughts

If you are looking for a roulette game that gets straight down to business, BetGames Classic Roulette is it. It’s an easy game to play; there are no complex bets or multipliers added to the gameplay, and you can easily play Tiers, Orphelins, Voisins, and Zero race track bets at the tap of a button or screen. Another advantage of this game is that it is the single-zero variant, giving you a theoretical 97.3% RTP. Finally, the aspect I like most about the BetGames Classic Roulette demo is the results history charts shown between each coup.
