Abstract

An enhanced roulette game is provided with more exciting game play with differing odds as compared to traditional roulette. The roulette game has a two-track roulette wheel for the simultaneous use of two separate balls during game play, with an increased number of betting numbers of 63 (1-60, 0, 00, and 000) or 75 (0, 00, 000, 1-72) around a single course of pockets or cassettes. One of the two roulette balls may be a “gold” ball that represents a bonus payout or bonus for hitting both numbers for one or more players. A set of playing chips have radio frequency identification (RFID), or other locating devices that interact with the grid to determine chip placement on the betting layout to automatically calculate a bet payoff.

Claims (20)

a roulette wheel with an upper track and a lower track around a circumferential edge of the roulette wheel;

a series of numbered and color coded pockets arranged in a circle concentric with said roulette wheel:
