Goal
Knowing the facts without spin is always a good strategy.
The Big Six Wheel is a large vertical wheel, sometimes referred to as the Big Wheel, Big Six, Money Wheel or the Wheel of Fortune. The goal of the game is to bet on the number or symbol that the wheel will stop on.
Rules
It’s more fun if you know what you’re doing.
Place a bet on any number(s) or symbol(s) on the wheel.
The dealer will spin the wheel three full rotations before the clapper settles on the winning number or symbol.
ETIQUETTE
Never place a bet after the wheel has started spinning
Don’t act like a big wheel. Be respectful of other players.

Generally, the bigger the payout, the higher the house advantage. Payout odds are at least:

- $5 Insignia: 5 to 1
- $10 Insignia: 10 to 1
