Live Roulette
Welcome to King Casino’s live roulette page. You can find our incredible offering of live roulette games here.
Live casino games are the pinnacle of online casinos. They allow players to play at a time and location that suits them without sacrificing the gameplay experience, bringing the entertainment of the casino floor to your device.
Online roulette against the computer can be great for convenience, but playing with a real dealer and other players online is a completely different ball game!
We have live versions of popular roulette variations, as well as some lesser-known ones. So, create an account with us here at King Casino for access to our full collection of live roulette games.
What Are Live Roulette Games?
Playing live roulette games online can deliver the more personable experience found in roulette games in brick-and-mortar casinos, while still providing the convenience and accessibility of online roulette.
You can access live roulette games the same way you would access online roulette: log in or create an account at King Casino, locate the live roulette game you wish to play, and load it up.
However, instead of playing against a Random Number Generator (RNG), a real dealer hosts a game of roulette in a studio. They spin a physical wheel and drop the ball in, and this is live-streamed to the online casino and straight to your device.
It’s like you’re playing an in-person game of roulette but remotely!
How To Play Live Roulette
Live roulette plays out the same as in-person and online roulette. Of course, there are different variations available, such as European and American roulette, but the overall premise of all roulette games – including live roulette – is the same.
You start by placing a bet on the number(s) you think the ball may land on. You can place a bet on individual numbers, multiple numbers, or on bigger groups of numbers – see the Live Roulette Odds & Payouts section below for a list of the different bets.
The dealer will call ‘no more bets’ and then spin the wheel. They will then drop the ball into the wheel, and everyone waits until it lands in a pocket.
If you guessed correctly, you win.
The only difference between in-person and live roulette online is that the dealer is live-streamed to your device. You, the player, place your bets using the interface on your device, and the information is fed to the dealer.
Why Play Live Dealer Roulette?
Some may wonder, what’s the point of choosing live dealer roulette? Well, the main advantage of playing online roulette with a live dealer rather than against a Random Number Generator (RNG) is that it can offer a more engaging experience.
Seeing a real dealer spin a physical wheel and drop the ball in may be more entertaining for many players than watching a digital wheel spin whilst a piece of software actually generates the outcome.
Also, online roulette with a live dealer can offer a more social experience than online roulette since there is at least one other person involved (the dealer), as well as the fact that most live roulette games have a chat function, which allows players to communicate with other players and the dealer.
Many players find online roulette against an RNG can get monotonous at times, so live dealer roulette offers a change of pace.
Live Roulette Odds & Payouts
Live roulette has the same odds and payouts as other roulette games. It actually comes down to the variation of roulette being played.
The two main variations of roulette are European roulette and American roulette. The difference is the former has 37 pockets (numbers 1-36 and a single green 0 pocket), and the latter has 38 pockets (numbers 1-36 and green 0 and 00 pockets).
The presence of the additional zero pocket in American roulette results in a larger house edge in this variation. European roulette has a house edge of 2.7%, while American roulette has a house edge of 5.26%.
That being said, you can place the same main bets regardless of the variation. There may be a few differences, so it may be best to read the rules of the specific roulette game beforehand, but here are the main bets available in all major roulette variations, as well as their payout odds:
Inside Bets
- Straight Up bet (1 number) – 35:1
- Split bet (2 adjacent numbers) – 17:1
- Street bet (3 numbers in a row) – 11:1
- Corner bet (4 numbers forming a square) – 8:1
- Line or Double Street bet (6 numbers across 2 adjacent rows) – 5:1
Outside Bets
- Red/Black (bet on all red or black numbers) – 1:1
- Odd/Even (bet on all odd or even numbers) – 1:1
- High/Low (bet on numbers 19-36 or 1-18, respectively) – 1:1
- Dozen (bet on numbers 1-12 or 13-24 or 25-36) – 2:1
- Column (bet on a line of 12 numbers) – 2:1

Online Live Roulette FAQs
Is live roulette actually live?
Yes, live roulette is actually live. There is a chat function that players can use to communicate with each other and the dealer. Furthermore, the dealer operating the game reacts to players’ actions and bets in real-time.
Is online live roulette rigged?
No, online live roulette is not rigged. Rigging a casino game could see the casino lose its licence to operate. Also, the casino has no need to rig the game; the house edge guarantees the casino profit in the long run, so since they’re making money anyway, there’s no need to rig the game.
How do you beat live roulette?
Live roulette, like all forms of roulette, is a game of chance. There is no way to beat live roulette. The dealer spins the wheel and drops the ball in, and the natural entropy ensures a random and fair outcome. This comes from slight imperfections on the ball and the wheel, the air pressure and humidity, among other factors.
The upside of this is that these factors also make it impossible for the casino to rig the game in any way.
Can roulette dealers control the ball?
No, roulette dealers cannot control the ball. This would be rigging the game, which is illegal for a casino to do, not to mention that there’s no feasible way for the dealer to control the ball. Many players have theorised that perhaps they use a magnet, but the ball is not magnetic.
