Roulette Payout Calculator by Omni
How to calculate roulette payout?
To calculate a payout, use this general formula:
Payout = (36 / Number of Spots Covered) - 1To calculate the payout for a straight-up bet (betting on a single number):
- Total numbers on the wheel: 36 (excluding 0 and 00 in American roulette)
- Numbers covered by the bet: 1
- Payout = (36 / 1) – 1 = 35
This means a winning straight-up bet pays 35 to 1. If you bet $10 and win, you’ll receive $350 plus your original $10 bet, for a total of $360.
Calculating roulette payouts involves understanding the odds and bet types in the game. Roulette offers various betting options, each with different payouts based on the probability of winning. The payout is determined by the ratio of the number of possible winning outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.
