Orphelins | 21.6% of wheel | 5–8 chips | Completing full-wheel coverage |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes this different from standard European Roulette? A: The announced bets racetrack is always prominently displayed rather than hidden in a submenu. The game is specifically designed for players who use call/announced bets regularly — the interface prioritises this betting style.
Q: Can I combine announced bets with standard inside/outside bets on the same spin? A: Yes. You can place chips on the main table and the racetrack simultaneously. All bets are settled together when the ball lands.
Q: How many chips does a full Voisins bet cost? A: 9 chips. The distribution is: 2-chip trio on 0/2/3, five 1-chip splits, and one 2-chip corner on 25/26/28/29.
Q: Does the neighbour bet range affect RTP? A: No. All straight-up bets — whether placed individually or as part of a neighbour group — carry the same 2.70% house edge per chip wagered.
