At the TCS John Huxley booth at the 2024 Global Gaming Expo they displayed their game Xtra Roulette. In short, it pays a random amount on single-zero bets. If the ball lands in one of four randomly chosen numbers, wins pay at least 30 to 1.

All the rules and my analysis can be found at WoO in my new page on Xtra Roulette.

I welcome all questions, comments and corrections.

The question for the poll is would you play Xtra Roulette, given the choice between that an conventional roulette? Multiple votes allowed.

Since I created the game mentioned in the fifth poll choice, I’m kinda biased. http://www.davemillergaming.com/pfr/index.html

That said, I also saw Xtra Roulette at G2E, and had a ‘meh’ response.

It adds a random element to a random event, often with no effect on the outcome.

One simple change to make it better would be if your bet is on one of the Xtra numbers, then it pushes rather than loses.

I noticed one typo:
Quote: Last paragraph

The next table shows the house on single-number bets …

You’re missing ‘edge’.
