Double-Zero Wheel (roulette)
A roulette wheel that has a total of 38 numbers (0 and 00 and
numbers 1-36).
The number sequence is (clockwise starting with 0): 0, 28, 9,
26, 30, 11, 7, 20, 32, 17, 5, 22, 34, 15, 3, 24, 36, 13, 1,
00, 27, 10, 25, 29, 12, 8, 19, 31, 18, 6, 21, 33, 16, 4, 23,
35, 14, 2. Originally, the double-zero wheel started in Europe
and the single-zero wheel started in America. But, Europeans
liked the single-zero wheel better, and Americans liked the
double-zero wheel better so they switched. Today, the American
wheel and double-zero wheel are synonymous.
