Start With the 20:1 Straight-Up Payout
Published game descriptions list an ordinary straight-up payout of 20:1, rather than classic European roulette’s 35:1. Lucky Numbers and the bonus add the game’s additional feature outcomes. That’s the main payout difference to notice before comparing the table with a standard wheel.
A winning single-number bet doesn’t automatically become a multiplier win. If it doesn’t receive a qualifying feature payout, the ordinary straight-up rule matters. The result and the bet’s eligibility determine which settlement applies.
Don’t calculate the complete game’s return from 20:1 alone. An accurate theoretical return also needs the probabilities and payouts of the feature outcomes. Without those, the ordinary payout figure doesn’t establish the RTP of the whole game.
Check the current in-game information before placing a bet. Published descriptions are useful context, but the table you’re using provides the relevant payout and feature rules for that game.
What the Ordinary Bets Pay
This table sets out the ordinary bet categories and published base payouts. The in-game paytable controls the table you actually play, including feature replacements and limits. Read the figures as base profit odds, not automatically as total-return multiples.
Swipe or scroll the table to see all columns.
| Bet | Numbers covered | Base profit odds |
|---|---|---|
| Straight-up | 1 | 20:1, before feature replacements |
| Split | 2 | 17:1 |
| Street | 3 | 11:1 |
| Corner | 4 | 8:1 |
| Six line | 6 | 5:1 |
| Dozen or column | 12 | 2:1 |
| Red/black, odd/even, low/high | 18 | 1:1 |
A winning split doesn’t become a Lucky Number award just because one of its numbers has a multiplier. Feature eligibility depends on the straight-up bet, not coverage alone. That’s why it’s worth reading the table as both a list of ordinary payouts and a description of which feature rules apply.
An RTP Figure Needs a Bet Attached
RTP is a theoretical long-run return, not the percentage you should expect back from one session. It describes an average across the model’s full set of outcomes, including losses and wins, rather than promising a particular result over a short run.
Open the Roulette information panel and read its RTP section alongside the payout table. Confirm which bet or feature the figure describes. Don’t transfer the original slot’s 96.50% figure to this live game; a percentage for one product doesn’t establish the return for another.
Read the stated percentage together with its scope, not as a standalone badge. A figure for an ordinary bet doesn’t establish the return of a different bet with added features. If the scope isn’t clear, the number alone isn’t enough to answer that question.
RTP also doesn’t tell you what a single spin or session will return. Use the table’s information for the game and bet you’re considering, and preserve any uncertainty where the feature probabilities and payouts aren’t specified.
What 97.30% Does, and Doesn’t, Explain
On an equally likely 37-pocket wheel, an ordinary 1:1 red bet covers 18 winning pockets. Its theoretical total return is 18 ÷ 37 × 2, or about 97.30%, under that stated payout assumption.
That example explains the familiar European-roulette figure. It doesn’t prove the RTP of a modified straight-up bet with randomly awarded multipliers and a bonus. Those features change the outcome model, and the ordinary arithmetic doesn’t supply their probabilities or payouts.
Likewise, house edge is 100% minus the applicable RTP. Use the figure stated for the relevant bet rather than a percentage copied from a different game. The arithmetic is only as relevant as the payout assumption and bet it describes.
So treat the calculation as an illustration of a standard even-money roulette bet, not as a complete evaluation of Gates of Olympus Roulette. The game’s own information panel is needed for the applicable figure.
20:1 and 20× Aren’t Necessarily Equal
At profit odds of 20:1, a winning one-unit stake earns 20 units of profit and returns the one-unit stake, for 21 units in total. A quoted total-return multiple of 20× would instead describe 20 units returned, including the stake.
Read the table’s convention before comparing a multiplier with “to 1” odds. Then subtract all losing bets in the round when calculating the net result. The stake treatment changes how the return should be interpreted, so don’t compare figures until you know which convention each uses.
The advertised maximums are 2,500× in the base game and 10,000× in the bonus. Check cash caps and stake treatment separately; a headline multiplier doesn’t establish an unlimited cash payout. Nor does it tell you how frequently the maximum might occur.
When in doubt, use the displayed settlement and the table rules to determine whether a figure is profit or total return. Don’t assume that every interface uses the same wording convention.
The Ceiling Doesn’t Tell You the Journey
A larger maximum tells you the ceiling, not how often a payout occurs or how much a typical session loses. Feature probabilities and the full payout distribution are needed for that assessment. A headline prize can’t replace those details.
No betting progression removes the underlying house advantage. Doubling after a loss also increases the amount at risk and can run into balance or table limits. A sequence of stake changes doesn’t alter the game’s outcome rules.
Choose a fixed entertainment budget and stop at its limit. Use the safer-gambling information if keeping that boundary becomes difficult. The maximum potential win is no reason to exceed a limit you set for yourself.
That’s the useful way to read the payout page: check the applicable rules and RTP scope, understand how returns are stated, and don’t mistake a ceiling for a measure of likely results.
Your Roulette Questions
Is The Original Slot RTP Also The Roulette RTP?
No. Don’t apply the original slot’s published percentage to Roulette. Read the live table’s RTP information and check which bet types it covers.
Does Every Single-Number Win Pay 35:1?
No. Published game descriptions list an ordinary straight-up payout of 20:1, with separate feature outcomes. Check the current in-game paytable before playing.
Is A Maximum Win An Expected Return?
No. A maximum is a payout ceiling. It doesn’t tell you how often that result occurs or predict what a session will return.
Read the rules in the game you open before placing a bet. Maximum prizes do not predict your session, and real-money gambling carries the risk of loss.
