Credit Card Roulette is a game of chance where every party involved contributes their own credit^[1] or debit card into a hat or billfold. The waitress or waiter will choose at random the card which will pay the entire bill.^[2][3][4] A second version of the game is played where the waiter or waitress pulls one card at a time and the last card picked pays the bill. (Known as the “Carter Fireball”) ^[5][6] Some groups may take the losers from previous meals that day out of contention for later that evening's game of chance. Exemptions are not accepted outside the 24-hour statute of limitation grace period.

History[edit]

Although the game's origins are unknown, it has increased in popularity within the last 20 years.^{[citation needed]} Some believe it was started by Matt Formica, a longtime risk averse gambler,^[7] who would put in five or six of his own credit cards, one of which was canceled, and offer the waiter a very large tip if he picked one of the cards that 'worked'. However, if he picked the canceled card the meal was free. A society column article about Jerry's game ran in the Morning Herald in Uniontown, Pennsylvania on June 8, 1960.^[7]

Roulette is one of the most popular table games in Las Vegas. It is spread by any casino with more than a handful of tables.

There are four types of roulette spread by Las Vegas casinos. They are European Roulette, single zero, double zero and triple zero. Double zero is the most common Las Vegas roulette version.

Difference Between European Roulette and Single Zero Roulette

European Roulette and single zero appear to be the same but there is one major difference. European Roulette has a rule known as “la partage.” This returns half of an even money bet if the ball lands on zero. This cuts the house edge on red/black, odd/even and hi/lo to 1.35%. All other bets on both tables have a 2.7% house edge.

Encore, Wynn, and upscale MGM properties are the only ones that offer European Roulette in Las Vegas. The minimum bet at MGM Grand is either $10 or $25. The others all require at least $100 to play.
