While your 11 other number bets will lose, your one winning bet returns at 35/1, which means with your stake returned, you would bet 12 chips, but win back 36 on a successful bet, a payout of 2/1.
You receive a payout if the ball lands in the slot of any of the twelve numbers you selected. It is also immediately apparent that all numbers are red numbers on the reel. You are covering 12 numbers which is just under a third of the wheel, so your odds of winning are 32.4%.
The sequence of numbers you place a traditional snake bet on is as follows: 1, 5, 9, 12, 14, 16, 19, 23, 27, 30, 32 and 34.
While this bet is essentially a simple one, it is somewhat complicated to explain.Ī snake bet, also known as a red snake bet, is when you place a bet on 12 numbers on the layout, starting at number one and then the next number is diagonally to the right of number one (5). If you have played roulette online, or in a real world casino before, then you may well have heard of the term, the ‘snake bet’.
