Odds:
1 to 8.3
dBan
−9.2 dBan

Place a chip where four numbers meet: any of those four pockets wins the corner bet.

Calculation

p = 4/37; expected net return = [(4 × €800) − (33 × €100)] / 37 = −€100/37 ≈ −€2.70 per €100

Assumptions

Each of the 37 numbers, including zero, is equally likely. The calculation follows French roulette anglaise rules. The average loss is over repeated plays.
