Lightning Roulette offers an electrifying roulette experience with a unique twist. In each round, one to five random numbers are struck by lightning, giving you the opportunity to win payouts ranging from 50x to 500x (49:1 – 499:1).
The objective of Lightning Roulette is to predict the number on which the ball will land by placing one or more bets that cover that specific number. The roulette wheel contains numbers 1-36 and a single 0 (zero).
After the betting time expires, one or more “lightning numbers” with corresponding “lightning payouts” are randomly selected, and the ball is spun on the roulette wheel. Eventually, the ball will come to rest in one of the numbered pockets on the wheel. If you have placed a bet that covers the winning number, you will win. Additionally, if the winning number is among the lightning numbers and you placed a Straight Up bet on it, you will receive the lightning payout.

There are various types of bets you can place on the Lightning Roulette table. These bets can cover individual numbers or specific number ranges, each with its own payout rate.
