How Russian Roulette works
Join the table
The dealer runs the table in Russian; place any inside or outside bet while betting is open.
The dealer spins
A live dealer spins the ball on a 37 pocket European wheel.
Collect wins
Winning bets are paid at 35:1 for a number down to 1:1 for the even money bets.
Just casino roulette, in Russian
Despite the name, this has nothing to do with the dare. Russian Roulette is Ezugi’s European roulette with a Russian speaking dealer. Russian is also one of the voiceover languages on Ezugi’s automatic wheels, but here a live host runs every spin.
The cost
With one zero and the standard payouts, all bets carry the same 2.70% house edge.
The math behind Russian Roulette
The wheel has 37 pockets: the numbers 1 to 36 and a single zero. The game's rules list every bet and its payout. Every figure below comes from those numbers: the house edge is worked out exactly from the payouts and the pockets.
Try it: place your bets
Tap a number for a straight up bet, a line between two numbers for a split, a corner for four numbers, or the edge next to the dozens for a street or six line. Add as many bets as you like.
The green pocket is not red, black, odd, even, high or low, so every outside bet loses when it lands. That is where the house edge comes from.

Your chance, payout and cost per spin will show here. Over many spins these bets lose about a spin on average, of your stake, even though a single spin leaves you ahead of the time. These bets can never finish a spin ahead, only break even or lose, and over many spins they lose about a spin on average, of your stake. A winning straight up pays 35 to 1, which on its own gives back 97.30% of what you stake; the bonus games add more, but how much is not published, so the true cost of these bets is not known.

"A fair price" is the payout that would make a bet break even over time: the pockets it loses on for each pocket it wins on. Every payout here is below it. No RTP figures are published; these are worked out exactly from the payouts and the 37 pockets.
One zero or two
Single zero, 37 pockets
2.70% house edge
One green pocket out of 37. $1 on red for 100 spins costs about $2.70 on average.
Double zero, 38 pockets
5.26% house edge
Two green pockets out of 38, almost double the cost: about $5.26 per 100 spins of $1 on red. The five number bet (0, 00, 1, 2, 3) costs even more, 7.89%.
Same game, different presentation
Russian Roulette is Ezugi's single zero game with a Russian speaking dealer. Every bet returns 97.30%, so no bet is cheaper than another: a 35 to 1 straight up and an even money red are priced the same, they just win at very different rates.
