There are different varieties of free roulette, just as there are different varieties of other games. Online play allows the player to play the variety that he wants to. The variety basically consists of different rules and different varieties combine the different pieces of the different casino games. These different rules results in a changed house advantage in most situations. The player should select the version that has the lowest house advantage and that gives him the most pleasure. One of the biggest variations that affect the house advantage is the single or double zero version. The player who is concerned with house advantage should always player the European version with its 2.7% house advantage instead of the American version with its 5.26% house advantage.

If the player does play the double zero version he should find a roulette game with the La Partage or En Prison rule. This lowers the house advantage to 2.63% in the American version and 1.35% in the European version. These rules make the game more favorable for the player. The racecourse version of the game allows the player to have additions betting opportunities. The racecourse represents different segments of the roulette wheel.  Racecourse bets allow the player to be on sections of the wheel. These are the neighbor and French bets that correspond to these sections. If the ball lands in a number in the section the player bet on, then the player wins. The different rules not only add variety to the game but they can make the game more favorable to the player.
