i would have no idea either as i dont want to go near the stupid things

i do know that its even money odds or even even money black or red
36-1 single number guess the rest would be 36/ the number of numbers you pick ie 4 numbers 12-1

36 numbers and a zero on a European table, zero and double zero on an American. the house ignores the zero(s), it's their edge and gives you 35/1 on a single number.

That's neutral.

Your number against 35 other numbers (still excluding the zeros)

Yes, so if there are 36 numbers, the odds are 35/1.....

As I said before the "0", i.e. the Zero(s) are the house edge. Ignored when working out odds so there are 36 left, hence 35/1, it is not an extra edge.
