Online roulette comes with a variety of rules, not just French, European and American regulations. This is why we prefer to play on the web and one title which has stood out to us the most is Felt Gaming’s Double Ball Roulette. The game follows standard European rules but with one exception – there’s an additional ball added to the wheel.

What is Double Ball Roulette?
Felt Gaming aren’t the first to come up with Double Ball Roulette, but they are the first to make an online variant of the unique game. With the land-based variants, the two balls are spun via compressed air so they don’t run into each other preventing an outcome.
The first ball is shot out and then the second, with each travelling at the same speed. Interestingly, both balls have to be successful on the outcome for both inside and outside bets at land-based casinos, but with the Felt Gaming variant only outside bets have to meet this criteria.

Layout and graphics of Double Ball Roulette
The game opens with the option to enable or disable sound, which is quite simplistic – the sound of your bets being placed and the sound of the balls spinning around the wheel can be heard. Additionally, a lady announces the outcome to add a land-based feel.
If you enabled sound but wish to turn it off you can simply click the arrow on the left hand side and turn off sound effects. You will also find the paytable here and a helpful tutorial on the game.
The screen features the table layout, with the wheel out of sight while you make your bets. The table features the usual European set up but you have the option to click on two racetracks on either side of the layout for special betting options.
The graphics are done incredibly well, while the house edge remains the same as European variants, despite the addition of the double wheel, at 2.7%.

Double Ball Roulette gameplay
Once you have placed your bets you can click on the ‘Wheel’ button and the screen will transform to the wheel instead of the table layout. The first ball will be released and then a button will appear for you to click, hold down, and release to shoot the second ball.
You can watch the wheel spin and the two balls go with it. Once they land on the outcome any winning bets will be paid out and you can either re-bet or play a new round with new bets.
Double Ball Roulette Jackpot
In order to place a jackpot bet you need to place the bet on the Jackpot Bet race track on the right hand side of the table layout. Click on the green 1200-1 JACKPOT button on the right side of the main betting table to make the bets.
You can then bet on any number between 0 and 36 and you can bet on more than just one number – but don’t exceed the jackpot maximum bet of $100. You will then win the massive payout if the two balls land on the number you have chosen.
