2. Odd or even: This bet is similar to red or black bet. In this case player wager on either odd number or even number. 0 is not counted as either odd or even. So player has 36 numbers to bet on. If the player place the chips on either odd square box or even square box (which is either side of red and black diamond) it indicates odd or even bet. In this case also player has half a chance of winning. This bet pays even money.
