French Roulette Play

French Roulette Play. If you translate the word of “Roulette” from French you will get “small wheel”. Blaise Pascal invented the original version of the game in the 17th century. Frenchmen Francois and Louis Blanc invented the single "0" roulette game in 1842. The game wasn't then very popular in France as any form of gambling was considered illegal, but Roulette was well-known in Germany and Hamburg. Later Francois and his son Camille were responsible for bringing the game of Roulette back to southern France for the Prince of Monaco, Charles III. The game of Roulette was brought to the USA at the beginning of the 19th century. Some additional features were deleted and the game got a double zero back. The game became popular in the old west of America.
