Live Roulette French Review

The French are known for their love of snails 🐌 (they eat 25,000 tons per year), cheese (you can eat a different type every day of the year), and wine (they consume 40 liters per person per year).

This comes as no surprise to anyone who has spent time with a beret-wearer 👨‍🎨, or has visited their country. But did you know that they have a peculiar superstition all their own? It’s unlucky to put a baguette upside down.

The belief comes from medieval times when executions were numerous. The executioners were so busy, they didn’t have time to pass by the bakery before work, so the baker would hold back some bread by placing it upside down on the shelves. 🥖

It’s for that reason that upside-down baguettes are associated with death and misfortune. But fear not, mon ami, today we are all about good luck and money! This is Live Roulette French from Platipus Gaming.

Gameplay

Platipus offers us a high-production roulette game with live croupiers to spin the wheel.

There are two camera angles when looking at the game on a laptop – one showing the croupier and the wheel from the front, and one that covers the wheel from above when the ball is in motion.

When viewed on a phone, you see the table/betting layout overlaid on top of what I’ve described above. It’s not the prettiest but the studio had to solve problems in the context of much smaller screen real estate, so you can’t really blame them.

The lighting is good, as is the audio, and the game loaded without issues on my devices. I did lose connection on my laptop, but that’s probably because I went to another desktop. A quick refresh of the page solved everything and I was back in business quickly.

The game will time out if you’re inactive for too long, but that’s something you’ll find in other games, too.

If you’re familiar with roulette but you’re not sure what’s the difference between the regular version and the French one (bearing in mind, we’re talking games with one zero only), French roulette is the preferred choice for strategic players.

The reason for this has to do with two player-friendly rules.

La Partage: When the ball lands on zero, players making even-money bets (red/black, odd/even, high/low) get half their bet back.

En Prison: This second rule lets players leave their even-money bets “imprisoned” for the next spin when zero lands. If the spin wins, you get your original bet back (no profit). If the spin loses, you’ll forfeit your bet.

As a result, the RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate.
is 97.30%
but on even-money bets, it increases to 98.65%. Now that’s impressive!

As for the other stats, we have a low volatility rate, a 36x max multiplier, and an $18,000 max win. All currencies are available.

Features

This game offers no features.

Performance

I didn’t have any serious issues with this game. All you need to do is pay it attention and don’t segway to other desktops or tabs and you’ll be fine.

Maximum Win

Betting ranges from $0.25 to $500. The max multiplier is 36x, and the max win is $18,000.

Conclusion

Over extended play, French roulette players lose $1.35 per $100 wagered on even-money bets versus $2.70 for European roulette players. If you’re into even-money bets, the French version of the Devil’s Wheel provides nearly twice the winning odds.

European roulette is faster and simpler, but the 1.35% gain in house edge for even-money bets is something to consider if that’s your style of play.

Live Roulette French from Platipus Gaming offers the best possible player odds in the single-zero roulette category.

It’s a no-brainer to say that if you’re playing this game, you should focus on even-money bets. Play with smaller bets over longer periods is where you’ll benefit from the mathematical advantage offered here.

So, in conclusion, this is an excellent game!
