Play Live Roulette Online

Live roulette brings the excitement of a real roulette table to your screen, allowing players to enjoy authentic casino action with professional dealers in real time.

As with live blackjack, players can watch the action unfold live, interact with dealers, and enjoy a more immersive gaming experience than standard online table games. From classic European and French tables to modern variations such as Lightning Roulette and Speed Roulette, there are plenty of ways to play live roulette online.

This page explains everything you need to know about live roulette options in Canada, including the different game variants available, how roulette works, common betting types, and useful tips for getting started with live roulette online. Whether you're new to casino live roulette or looking to learn more about the available games, you'll find the essential information below.

What Types of Live Roulette Games Can You Play?

As with all online casino games, live roulette also features European, French and American Roulette, the only difference is that these games are played in a live environment with real dealers, and therefore in real time. The same rings true for exciting offerings like live blackjack and live baccarat. Here at Royal Vegas, we also offer various other live roulette games, with the most popular being:

How Do You Play Live Roulette?

Live roulette is played at a table featuring a slotted wheel and a betting area printed with numbers 0 to 36. In some cases, as with American Roulette, there will be a double 0 slot as well. You are able to place numerous bets on the table, betting on different outcomes.

With live casino, you place bets by using uniquely coloured chips to distinguish you from the others, as you can play with different players from around the world at the same table in an online casino environment. Once all bets have been placed by participating players, the dealer will spin the roulette wheel in one direction and spin a ball in the opposite direction. The wheel and ball gradually decelerate until the ball settles in one of the slots of the roulette wheel. The corresponding number on the table is the winning bet.

What Are the Most Common Roulette Bets?

Whether you’re playing live dealer roulette at a casino online or on mobile, the bets will remain the same – and while there are quite a few bets that you can place, here are some of the most common inside bets that online and mobile casino players prefer:

  • The Single Bet: This is a bet that is placed on any single number between 0 and 36.
  • The Split Bet: This bet can be placed on 2 adjoining numbers, either vertically or horizontally.
  • The Street Bet: A bet that is placed on 3 numbers in a single horizontal line.
  • The Corner Bet: As the name suggests, this bet can be placed on 4 numbers in a square.

There are also outside bets that can be placed, and those include whether the ball will land on a black or red number, if the ball will land on an odd or even number, and if the winning number is between 1 and 18 or between 19 and 36.
