Both European Roulette software games have the identical and standard rates. As with many roulette tutorials, you will sometimes find different terminology used for the name of the bet type. Experienced players know what each of those terms indicate. However beginning players will often get confused at the different names used for the bet types. Here are the most common ones used:
- Six number combination = Line
- Four number combination = Corner
- Three number combination = Street
- Two number combination = Split
- Any one number = Straight

Usually, a true test of the popularity of a particular game is shown in the player ratings. However, these two games have very similar high ratings. The Rival game edged out the Dragon gaming version by a slight margin.
This may well be because the Rival game can be played in “free play “try it” “demo mode”. However, it also has handy “undo” and “clear all” buttons. In my opinion they are of equal value and would be sure to function perfectly well for all players.
