How Many Spaces Are on a American Roulette Wheel?

An American Roulette wheel has 38 spaces. This includes the 0, 00, and numbers 1 through 36.

PRO TIP:A standard American Roulette wheel has 38 pockets, each numbered from 0 to 36, plus a pocket for the double zero. The numbers on the wheel alternate between red and black and are arranged in a seemingly random sequence.

Roulette is a casino game named after the French word meaning little wheel. In the game, players may choose to place bets on either a single number or a range of numbers, the colors red or black, or whether the number is odd or even.

To determine the winning number and color, a croupier spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted track running around the circumference of the wheel. The ball eventually loses momentum and falls onto the wheel and into one of 37 (in French/European roulette) or 38 (in American roulette) colored and numbered pockets on the wheel.
