Roulette payouts depend on the bet type, but they generally range from 1:1 for outside bets to 35:1 for a straight-up single number bet.

Common payouts

  • Red/black, odd/even, high/low: 1:1
  • Dozen or column: 2:1
  • Split: 17:1
  • Street: 11:1
  • Corner: 8:1
  • Six-line: 5:1
  • Straight-up single number: 35:1

What that means

If you bet $10 on a single number and win, a 35:1 payout means you get $350 in profit plus your original $10 back, for $360 total return.

American roulette usually has lower win odds than European roulette because of the extra 00, but the listed payouts are still based on the bet type, not the wheel version.

Practical takeaway

  • Safer bets pay less but hit more often.
  • Riskier inside bets pay more but win less often.
  • The house edge in standard roulette is about 5.26% in American roulette.
