When paying in stations, the dealer counts the variety of ways or stations that the profitable number hits the entire bet. In the example above, 26 hits 4 stations – 2 completely different corners, 1 cut up and 1 six-line. The vendor takes the quantity 4, multiplies it by 36, making a hundred and forty four with the players wager down. To determine the successful number, a croupier spins a wheel in a single path, then spins a ball in the incorrect way round a tilted circular track operating around the outer fringe of the wheel. The ball finally loses momentum, passes by way of an area of deflectors, and falls onto the wheel and into one of the colored and numbered pockets on the wheel.
