Have you given the Big Six Wheel a spin? This basic casino game, also
known as the Wheel of Fortune, is less famous than traditional roulette
games but can also provide fun and excitement.
You can find “The Big Six” at various online casinos, along with other
games like poker, blackjack, and American roulette. In addition, other
gambling activities
include betting on college and pro sports like football, basketball, and
hockey.
Some newbie gamblers, in particular, may feel anxious about playing in
casinos. They can use natural remedies to keep calm and focus on placing
bets.
Here are some critical rules and strategies for the Big Six Wheel that
may help you make better bets and increase your chance of winning.
Big Six Wheel:
The Basic Rules
Most versions of Big Six feature a big upright wheel, unlike the
horizontal wheel of roulette games like European roulette. This feature
makes the game more visible in land-based casinos. Colors, lights, and
sounds can also make the game more noticeable.
The game is known by several names, including:
●
Big Six Wheel
●
Big Wheel
●
Wheel of Fortune
●
Money Wheel
●
Lucky Wheel
You may see other names of the game that include “wheel.”
The name of the game is for the wheel to stop on the segment on which a
player bets. The various sections have different chances of winning and
payout amounts.
How to Play Big
Six Wheel
Players place their bets on the layout’s box, matching a symbol on the
wheel. The big wheel contains spaces marked with wild symbols. The
symbols may have dollar bills, colors, or numbers.
An example is 54 spaces marked with seven symbols, including two special
symbols (wild and casino logo).
A player can place a bet until the dealer stops accepting bets.
Some special mechanical requirements apply in physical casinos. A
spinning wheel must often complete a minimum number of rotations to be a
valid spin.
In addition, the wheel’s flapper indicating the winning symbol must also
stop inside a space for a valid spin.
A player wins if the wheel stops on the symbol on which they bet.
Meanwhile, the other bets lose.
Odds and Payouts
The Big Six game’s paytable determines the payouts for winning symbols.
Odds and paytables may differ if you play at different physical casinos.
Examples include Las Vegas or Atlantic City.
If you play Big Six online, you should also research the odds and
payouts for various symbols.
Strategies to
Make Better Bets on Big Six Wheel
Big Six is a game of chance, so the number of strategies you can use is
somewhat limited. You can still take steps to improve your chance of
winning.
The two main strategies you can use include which bets you can make and
how much you bet. While it helps to have “Lady Luck” on your side, you
can also take steps to increase your chance of winning.
Play
Higher-Regulated Big Six Games
For example, games in Australia tend to be more regulated than in the
United States. More regulation means each bet gives you the same chance
of winning.
For example, you’ll get the same payout whether one kangaroo or two
dozen koala symbols determine your winning bet.
More regulation can give you a better chance of winning whether you play
at land-based or online casinos.
Make Two Extra
Bets Per Round
This option may help you maximize short-term winnings.
Let’s say you bet $20 on the $1 space and $20 on both wild symbols.
You’ll have about a 48% chance of winning any money. However, the payout
for the $1 space will likely be 1:1.
This betting strategy can increase your winnings. On the other hand, it
may not cover the costs of betting an extra $40 on the wild cards each
spin.
Set a Winning
and Losing Limit
Like other forms of gambling, you may go on a winning or losing streak
when playing Wheel of Fortune. Setting winning and losing limits can
help prevent you from betting until you lose your entire bankroll.
That’s always a bad thing.
Quitting after a winning streak can be challenging if you “feel lucky.”
Still, having fiscal discipline can help maximize your profits.
Meanwhile, “chasing losses' ' can also reduce your chance of maximizing
profits. This action causes gamblers to keep gambling to recoup their
losses. While it’s a possibility, it can cause your losses to be
exponentially higher if a losing streak continues.
Consider “Short
Odds” Bets
While these bets have smaller payouts, you also have a better chance of
winning.
This one’s simple. If you want to win more (lose less), stick to the
game’s “short odds.” Such odds have a higher chance of winning.
For example, consider an even-money bet (1:1 odds) that gives you the
same chance of winning or losing.
For example, in America, the $1 bill symbols make up nearly half of the
54 spots on the wheel.
Keep in mind that even-money bets can still be expensive. The main
benefit is you’re playing to lose less rather than win more. Aren’t
those ideas the same? They’re actually different!
Set a Maximum
Number of Bets
Besides setting a maximum winning and losing amount, you can limit how
many bets you make. Consider starting with a low number and gradually
increasing your Big Six bets per session.
Just as importantly, stick to the maximum number of bets you set.
Wrap Up
It’s advisable to learn basic rules and strategies when playing Big Six
Wheel. This situation is just like other casino games. Ensure, though,
that you’re also having fun.
Even-money odds aren’t like 2:1 payouts for natural blackjacks (ace and
ten-value card) at online casinos. Still, the strategies mentioned above
may increase your chance of having big luck on the Big Wheel!
