17.4.3 ROULETTE
Roulette is one of the simpler forms of gambling, but many find it enjoyable and addictive nonetheless. The game is played using a horizontal wheel divided into sections numbered 1-36, 0, and 00. 0 and 00 are green, and the rest of the numbers are divided evenly into red and black. The attendant will set the wheel spinning and toss a small ball onto the outside track of the spinning wheel. Each numbered section of the wheel has a pocket for the ball, and the winning bets are determined by which section the ball ends up in. There are many different kinds of bets you can place in roulette, and you may continue to place as many bets as you like until the ball falls into a pocket (though there is a limit on how much total gold you can wager per spin). Bets are placed using a table with 0 and 00 at the top, and 1-36 arranged in rows of 3. Using the BET command (just the one word!) in a room with a roulette wheel will show this table. If you have MXP enabled, BET <amount> GOLD will even show a clickable version of the table that can be used to place any bet listed below!
