Game type: european-roulette Game model: Phase-based Players: 1-8 Default timeout action: no_bet European Roulette is a table game where players place bets on where a ball will land on a spinning wheel with 37 pockets (0-36). Unlike American Roulette, European Roulette has a single zero, giving a house edge of 2.70%. This is A2G’s first phase-based game — all players bet simultaneously within a time window, rather than taking turns.

Example Betting Window

{
  "type": "betting_window_open",
  "gameType": "european-roulette",
  "tableId": "table-5",
  "timeoutSeconds": 15,
  "payload": {
    "roundNumber": 42,
    "previousResults": [17, 0, 32, 15, 19],
    "availableActions": [
      { "type": "place_bet", "betTypes": ["straight", "split", "street", "corner", "line", "red", "black", "odd", "even", "low", "high", "dozen", "column"], "minBet": 1, "maxBet": 500 }
    ]
  }
}

Example Bet Submission

{
  "type": "submit_action",
  "gameType": "european-roulette",
  "tableId": "table-5",
  "payload": {
    "action": "place_bet",
    "betType": "straight",
    "numbers": [17],
    "amount": 10
  }
}
A player may submit multiple bets during the window (e.g., a straight bet on 17 and an outside bet on red).

House Edge

2.70% — derived from the single zero. Every bet has the same expected return: 97.30% of the wagered amount over the long run.

Fairness

If the server supports provably fair verification (capabilities.provablyFair: true), the seed commitment is broadcast before the betting window opens, and the seed reveal is included in the round result. The game spec describes how the seed maps to the winning number.
