Notes

  • On a standard roulette wheel, a bet on a single number pays out 35 to 1. Either the Kingdom's wheels have fewer numbers than those of the real world, or the payout structure is stingier. (Of course, the one pictured has 10 sections, so 32 to 1 would be extremely generous here.)
  • By the way, on standard roulettes, 6 is black, so you need to be really lucky to bet on a red 6 and win!
  • The meat goes into your pocket, not to charity, when under Way of the Surprising Fist.
