Amaya Software

Amaya provides a full suite of gaming products to the online gambling industry including poker, sportsbook and casino platforms. The company supplies some of the largest and best-known gaming operators in North America, Europe, and Latin America.

Amaya software is used at many online casinos, but it is rare to find a site that uses Amaya games exclusively, many buying a package of games from Amaya to go alongside their other casino offerings. The company develops both virtual casino software and Live Dealer casino games.

Online Roulette Variations By Amaya

There are three types of online roulette supplied to the casinos by Amaya to play for real money.

American roulette, Common Draw, and European roulette and all use the same software. Upon entering the game you are met by a very large betting layout and the wheel spinning in a small window in the top left-hand corner of the screen. You’ll place your bets by clicking on the chip amount and then clicking on the layout where you want that chip placed. Having finalized your betting, you’ll hit spin.

At this point, the window featuring the wheel increases in size and you’ll have a very clear view of the spin itself. After spinning around the outside of the wheel, the ball does find its destination rather quickly, which does take away some of the tension associated with roulette, but other than that the game is a solid one. Options available are a quick-spin, clear and undo bets and you’ll also be able to save bets.

Additionally, you’ll be able to change the view of the game so it appears you are actually standing at the table, although this option shows no close-up view of the wheel. A close-up window will appear when the ball lands in the slot and you’ll also see a history window showing the results of the previous 15 spins.

Amaya’s European Roulette

The European game features a wheel with just single zero and racetrack betting alongside the more traditional betting you’ll find at all games. The European game has a house edge of 2.70% which is much lower than the house edge for American roulette.

This variation of the game features a wheel with double zeros . There is no racetrack betting available on this version. American roulette has a house edge of 5.26%, so we would always suggest playing at the European game due to its lower house edge.

Amaya’s Common Draw Roulette

This game features the same rules as the European game, the difference being that the game is designed for more than one player. As such, the spins of the wheel will take place at set intervals of 50 seconds, which is unlike the other variations where the spin would take place when you hit the button. There is an added chat box in this game, where you’ll be able to converse with other players.

Casino Games By Amaya

Amaya supply a great range of casino software. The most numerous of these offerings are the slots, with many games based on film or TV favorites such as Superman and Wonder Woman, some of these games having progressive jackpots attached. Other table games include Blackjack, Baccarat and poker variations. Video Poker is an area Amaya focus on, with 14 variations of the game available.

You’ll also find a variety of other fun games. One such game that will interest roulette fans is pinball roulette, where you’ll bet much like you would at a roulette table; however, instead of a wheel you’ll be taken to a pinball table and the numbered slots scroll across the bottom of the table waiting for the ball to land hopefully on the numbers you have put your bets.

Amaya Live Dealer Roulette

The Live Dealer roulette offering by Amaya software is an impressive one.

The games are based in Estonia and operate for twenty-four hours a day. When entering a roulette game there are two views available, either the classic mode or the grand mode. The classic mode features the dealer and the wheel in a smaller window at the top of the screen, while the grand mode offers a complete live roulette experience.

These games are generally hosted by very glamorous dealers in smart black dresses which add to the popularity of these games. You’ll also be able to interact with the dealers through a chat option. You’ll find many features on the screen, including a full rundown of the results of previous spins and hot and cold numbers. Both English speaking and Italian speaking tables are available.

As well as roulette, you’ll find Blackjack and Baccarat. Once again you’ll find both English and Italian speaking games. These games are hosted by the same dealers (they will move around from game to game) and the chat option is available here as well. Many live casinos will also feature Casino Holdem, Video Poker or 3 card poker, although this is currently unavailable at the Amaya Live Dealer Casino.
