The number grid
The numbers 1 to 36 are laid out in 12 rows of three: 1-2-3 at the top, 34-35-36 at the bottom. Reading down the table gives the three columns: 1, 4, 7… 34 in the first; 2, 5, 8… 35 in the second; 3, 6, 9… 36 in the third. The zero sits above them all.
On the table the numbers follow their counting order, not the order on the wheel. Two numbers side by side on the felt are usually far apart on the wheel.

The outside boxes
- Columns: the three “2 to 1” boxes at the end of each column.
- Dozens: 1st 12, 2nd 12 and 3rd 12, the three blocks of twelve.
- Even-money boxes: 1-18, even, red, black, odd, 19-36.
Where each inside bet goes
- Straight up: in the middle of a number.
- Split: on the line between two numbers.
- Street: on the outer edge of a row of three.
- Corner: where four numbers meet.
- Six line: on the outer edge, between two rows.
- First four (0-1-2-3) on European tables, top line (0-00-1-2-3) on American ones: at the corner where the zero meets the first row.
French and American tables
French tables use the same grid with French names: manque and passe for 1-18 and 19-36, pair and impair, rouge and noir, and P12, M12, D12 for the dozens. The outside boxes often run down both sides so every player can reach them.
American tables add a double zero next to the zero, which creates the top line bet at the head of the table.
