I think casinos exist elsewhere. But yeah, roulette works for casinos by making the payouts slightly less than the actual odds. A black or red bet pays 2 to 1, but there's a 5.3% chance it lands on either of the green spaces and all black and red bets lose. Theoretically, a lucky player could break the house (there's a Star Trek episode where this happens), but on average the casino just makes money.
Feels like gambling. No matter whether you bet on black or red, the house wins.
That's not how roulette works, if you win the house loses.
Well you’ve caught me I’ve never been to Nevada.
