Rugby Fever Roulette is played on a European roulette table and wheel with a single Zero space (0) for a low house edge of 2.7% (RTP = 97.30%). This version of the game has only ½ the house edge as an American roulette game with two Zeros (00).
Since the rules are the same as those found on casino floors throughout Europe, the odds are written in stone and the volatility is medium unless you decide to juice it up with some high-risk/high-potential reward bets such as a single number bet.
The minimum bet is 0.25 and the maximum bet is 1,000.00. Based on the odds, payouts, and overall table limits players can win up to 64,500.00 on a single spin if their bets are spread for that possible return.
Choose your croupier and country
Perhaps more important to Rugby fans than the choice of a dealer (Dave or Sarati) is the choice of a country to support. Choosing one of the available teams will also modify the look of the game to match. Pick the country you want to support from a list of flags that includes Argentina, England, Ireland, Italy, and New Zealand. Players can create their own custom bets, choose from among 39 preset configurations, and save their favorites for later.
Bet each spin or use Autoplay
Autoplay can be accessed via the betting interface. The feature will let you initiate up to 100 rounds with automatic rebates.
Racetrack bets or Call bets
The game’s easy-to-access racetrack board makes selecting pre-configured bets a breeze. The fact that Le XV de France is not supported among country choices should not dissuade the savvy player from taking advantage of all this game has to offer!
Use this betting board to quickly and properly place French roulette bets such as:
Voisins du Zero – From the French language this translates into “neighbors of zero,” and is sometimes simply called a “neighbors” bet. The term refers to the 17 numbers on the wheel that range from 22 to 25 on the wheel. The Zero is at the heart of this grouping. As a result, all of the numbers surrounding it are its “neighbors.” Place this bet if you like the feeling of flirting with disaster and the thrill of saying to yourself, “I missed it by that much”!
Tiers du Cylindre – This term literally translates into English as “thirds of the wheel,” this bet type corresponds to an exact third of the wheel, namely the bottom third.
Orphelins – The ‘orphans’ are two small segments that include the eight numerals that are not related to the Voisins du Zero or Tiers du Cylindre. Orphelins cover the numbers 9, 31, 14, 20, and 1 on one side of the table and 17, 34, and 6 on the other.
Unfortunately, the French bets stop there and do not include en prison. With this bet, you can cut the house edge in half again to ¼ that of an American roulette wheel by recovering your stake after a spin of zero as long as your stake was an even odds wager such as high–low, even–odd, or red–black.
How to Play Rugby Fever Roulette?
Beyond the theme and “interactions”, the gameplay is bog standard. There are no roulette strategies or methods to learn or practice. It’s all a matter of luck and bankroll management. If you want to play it safe simply stick to the even-money bets. If you feel a lucky hit coming up it’s okay to responsibly place a part of your bankroll on a riskier bet with higher potential returns – culminating with a single number bet. MIxed betting to average out overall volatility from low to high is also a valid way to play.
Before the round starts simply choose your country to support and then pick a dealer. Bets range from 0.25 to 1,000.00 in chips so it’s a good idea to know your limits and manage expectations. Winning and losing streaks can and will occur even on even-money bets so there’s no sense in chasing losses if a downturn in your luck comes along.
Decide on how much you could comfortably lose in a session and how much you want to bet on the next spin as well as what type of bet you want to make, then let fate have her way, (prepare for the worst and hope for the best). The croupier will spin the wheel, call for “no more bets please” and drop the ball into action. The outcome will be shown and announced and all bets will be settled – losses will leave the table and winnings will come your way.
