THE DEPTHS OF COLOMBO'S NIGHT LIFE
Roulette - R

ally’s Casino, Colombo is all
about giving the win to the
player. This is where the
player wins big and gets
his glory days. With a wide
array of casino games- from
Blackjack to Baccarat to Poker to
slot Machines- Bally’s Casino has
got it all. And there is no other
game like Roulette, where the
player literally takes it all!
Before that; here’s a bit of history.
It's no secret that Roulette is all about
odds, house edges, and statistics. So
it should come as no surprise that the
Roulette wheel was actually invented
by Blaise Pascal, a French physicist,
inventor, and mathematician. But
Pascal wasn't trying to invent a casino
game. In 1655, Pascal tried to invent a
perpetual motion machine.

For non-scientists, that would be a
machine that continues to operate
without drawing energy from an
external source. The laws of physics say
it's impossible, but being an inventor,
Pascal was attempting to defy the odds.
His experiment failed, but the process
gave birth to one of the most popular
casino games of all time.
zero didn't exist on the Roulette wheel
until the mid-19th century. In fact, the
Roulette wheel as invented by Pascal
remained the same for centuries. That
