This section is the “textbook” of FreeRouletteSystems.com. It doesn’t try to sell you a method or a casino – it simply explains how roulette works so you can judge every system claim against reality.
Everything is organized into three blocks: Foundations (math, bet types and volatility), Systems & Myths (how strategies behave) and Help & Safety (FAQ, glossary, responsible play).
These pages give you the baseline math and table knowledge: odds, house edge, how the main bet types work, and how volatility and bankroll interact. Everything else on the site assumes you’ve seen these ideas at least once.
