Jeu Zéro

Jeu Zéro places 4 units covering 7 numbers of the wheel, hitting 1 in 5.3 spins. Enumerating every pocket gives an exact house edge of 2.70% — the wheel’s standard price; announced bets change coverage and volatility (SD 2.13), never the edge.⚙ computed

What lands where

1 on [0, 3] paying 17:1 · 1 on [12, 15] paying 17:1 · 1 on [32, 35] paying 17:1 · 1 on [26] paying 35:1. Per pocket, wins and losses net against each other — the table shows the exact distribution driving the SD of 2.13 per unit.

Calling it at the table

Announced bets are exactly that — you say “Jeu Zéro, 4 units” and the croupier places the chips for you. Have the full amount ready: 4 × your unit, every spin. Online, the racetrack oval places the whole pattern in one tap.

The wheel sector it buys

Unlike grid bets, Jeu Zéro maps to a physical arc of the wheel — its entire reason to exist (the felt and the rim are different maps). The 7-pocket arc hits 1 in 5.3 spins by construction, not by magic.

Session math

At $20 per spin (4 × $5 units) over 100 spins you wager $2000, expect about $54 in edge, and ride swings of roughly ±$426 one SD. Same price as plain red — different shape of evening. Try the pattern in the simulator and watch the meter agree.
