Originally Answered: how often does the ball in the roulette wheel land on the number " Zero " ? One time in 37 spins for a single zero European wheel. One time in 38 spins for an American wheel with a double zero.

The numbers count from 1 to 36, followed by 0 and 00 to complete the 38 pockets on the American roulette wheel. Double Zero Roulette has a house edge of 5.26%, which is a better bet than European Roulette.
