Play French Roulette at JacksClub
French Roulette by B Gaming brings one of the most player-friendly versions of roulette to the online casino. The game uses a traditional single-zero wheel and familiar roulette betting options, but adds the famous La Partage rule to improve the odds on even-money bets.
La Partage is one of the biggest reasons players choose French Roulette over standard European or American roulette. When the ball lands on zero, qualifying even-money bets only lose half of the stake rather than the entire wager.
At JacksClub, French Roulette is provided by B Gaming and currently listed with an RTP of 97.3%. The game is categorised under Roulette, Table Games and B Gaming.
How to Play French Roulette
French Roulette is easy to play if you're familiar with standard roulette.
The wheel contains 37 pockets: numbers 1 through 36 plus a single green zero. Before each spin, select your chip value and place your bets on the roulette table.
You can choose individual numbers, combinations of numbers or outside bets covering larger sections of the wheel. Once betting closes, the ball is spun and the number where it lands determines the winning bets.
The main difference from standard European roulette comes when the ball lands on zero and you have an eligible even-money wager.
What Is La Partage?
La Partage is a traditional French roulette rule that gives players an advantage on even-money bets.
If the ball lands on zero, a Red/Black, Odd/Even or 1–18/19–36 wager does not lose its entire stake. Instead, half of the bet is returned.
For example, if you place $10 on Red and the ball lands on zero, you lose $5 but receive $5 back.
This reduces the theoretical house edge on these bets from 2.70% to 1.35%, giving them an effective RTP of 98.65%. Other roulette bets that are not covered by La Partage retain the standard 97.30% RTP associated with a single-zero wheel.
French Roulette RTP
JacksClub lists B Gaming French Roulette with an RTP of 97.3%.
However, it's important to understand that the RTP can effectively be higher on qualifying even-money bets because of La Partage.
The standard theoretical RTP for most bets on a single-zero roulette wheel is 97.30%. When La Partage applies to Red/Black, Odd/Even and 1–18/19–36 bets, the theoretical RTP increases to 98.65%, equivalent to a 1.35% house edge.
RTP is a long-term theoretical calculation and does not guarantee a particular return during an individual playing session.
French Roulette vs European Roulette
French Roulette and European Roulette both use a single-zero wheel, so they have the same standard 2.70% house edge on most bets.
The major difference is La Partage.
With European Roulette, an even-money bet normally loses completely when zero appears. With French Roulette and La Partage, half of the stake is returned.
This makes French Roulette particularly attractive for players who prefer even-money wagers such as Red/Black or Odd/Even.
French Roulette vs American Roulette
French Roulette has a significant mathematical advantage over American Roulette.
American Roulette uses both a single zero and a double zero, creating 38 pockets instead of 37. This increases the standard house edge to 5.26%.
French Roulette uses only one zero, while La Partage can further reduce the house edge on qualifying even-money bets to 1.35%.
For players who want traditional roulette with a relatively low house edge, French Roulette is generally a much more favourable option than American Roulette.

Rebet
The Rebet function makes it possible to repeat your previous betting combination without manually recreating every wager.
Mobile Gameplay

French Roulette Strategy
There is no betting system that can predict where the roulette ball will land. Each spin is independent, so previous results don't make a number more or less likely to appear on the next spin.
If you're looking for the strongest mathematical position within French Roulette, La Partage makes even-money bets particularly attractive because of their reduced house edge.
That doesn't mean they are guaranteed to win, however. Set a bankroll before playing, choose stakes that fit your budget and avoid chasing losses by increasing your bets after losing spins.
