Most don’t even consider where the ball will land. It may seem absurd, considering that roulette is all about a wheel and ball. And there’s a big difference between live roulette with real wheels, and RNG roulette (Hint: only one is real roulette, and can have workable strategies). Example of typical.

Everyone knows that the Big Six, also known as the Wheel of Fortune, game has some of the worst odds of all table games. The house edge ranges from about 11% to 24% according to the Wizard of Odds site. Personally, I find it amazing that the game is in existence at all and it is rare to even find people playing it.
My question is what would happen if you reduced the house edge by increasing the payouts. For example, give the game a house edge of 3% to 5% or so. Would the increased number of Players make up for the lower house edge?
Why even have a game which sits empty for the vast majority of the day due to it's high house edge? Lower the edge and fill up the seats!

Big Six exists for a few reasons. It gets loud, even louder than craps, and thus attracts attention. So casinos put it in the front. Yes, it is closed on off-hours. But it can survive with comparatively low limits. For players it keeps the lowlifes away from the real games. Last time I was at the casino I was in the bar yards from the Bix Six Wheel. My first reaction was that 'The Jerry Springer' show was having a tour for their audience and guests.

Agreed. It is still an interesting question, though. There are plenty of casino games around with high house edges. Those that have shown staying power seem to have either an appealing aesthetic, or the potential for a big payoff. Roulette, for example, has that James Bond / Casablanca kind of aura about it (think martinis and tuxedos). Along with the excitement of a possible 35:1 payout on single numbers, a lot of people play - even on 00 wheels.
While big six has the 40:1 payout on the joker, but I'm not sure it has enough aesthetic going for it. There is kind of an old-West saloon vibe to it, but I don't reckon that's enough.
Old enough to repaint. Young enough to sell.

Walt,
There is new breed of 'Simple Tourist' games being created to fill that Big Six need with very low house edges.
Clean Carnival Games, if you can call it that.
The following are fun to play, have low house edges, require no strategy, and Easy Over Under and Scossa dice are in field trials as we speak.

EZ Big 6 - the joke being it's more complicated and includes player skill choices... now if I can work out what those would be, I'll be sure to let you know :)

The wheel has an aura. It is easy to understand, and you see it in other formats, including the ubiquitous 'Wheel of Fortune' slots.
As for cesspit's suggestion, how about 'parlay' opportunites, or bets on two spin totals?

A Big Six wheel at Del Lago Resort and Casino

The Big Six wheel, also known simply as The Big Six or Wheel of Fortune, is an unequal game of chance, played using a large vertical wheel that can be spun.

Since 13 May 2002, it can be played legally in licensed casinos in the United Kingdom, under The Gaming Clubs (Bankers' Games) (Amendment) Regulations 2002 (Statutory Instrument 2002/1130).

The game is also known in casinos in the United States.

Rules[edit]

The wheel is divided into a number of equal segments separated by spokes or pins. Each segment is associated with a number. The wheel is spun by a dealer, and the winning segment is indicated by a pointer mounted on a flexible piece of rubber or leather, which also rubs against the pins to impart friction and slow the wheel down. Should the player stop the wheel, the segment at the top is the winner.

Variants[edit]

Big Six Wheel Strategy Game

There are a number of variants of the game, that divide the wheel into a different number of segments, use different symbols in the segments, and have different odds if a symbol is selected.

Money wheel[edit]

This variant is the most common in casinos in the United States. The symbols are $1, $2, $5, $10 and $20 bills — and two special symbols, a joker and the casino logo. The $1 bills pay at odds of 1 to 1, the $2 bills at 2 to 1, the $5 bills at 5 to 1, and so on. The joker and the logo pay at odds of 40 to 1 or 45 to 1, depending on local gaming regulations or the practice of the casino.

The house advantage or edge (the proportion of the stakes that the casino expects to win on average) of this game is one of the highest of most casino games. In the United States it ranges from 11.1% on the $1-bill bet to more than 24% on the joker or logo (when it pays at 40 to 1). In Australia the house edge is 7.69% on all bets, so that the payouts on a 52-segment wheel are 47:1, 23:1, 11:1, 5:1, 3:1 and 1:1.

Dice wheel[edit]

An example of the 'dice wheel' variant produced by H. C. Evans & Co. of Chicago

The symbols on the wheel represent some of the 216 possible combinations of three dice. Sometimes the same combination appears in more than one segment. Players wager on the numbers 1 through 6. If the number appears on one of the dice in the winning segment, the dealer pays at 1 to 1; on two of the dice, 2 to 1; on all three of the dice, 3 to 1.

One example of a dice wheel, manufactured by H. C. Evans & Co. of Chicago (or its successor), is divided into 54 segments. Each of the triples appears four times. The following doubles each appear four times: 2, 1, 1; 2, 2, 1; 4, 3, 3; 5, 4, 4; 6, 5, 5; and 6, 6, 3. The following combinations each appear three times: 3, 2, 1; and 6, 5, 4.

In the example above, there are 54 possible outcomes for a single spin of the wheel. For a specific number:

  • There are 7 possible outcomes where only one die will match the number
  • There are 4 possible outcomes where only two dice will match
  • There are 4 possible outcomes where all three dice will match

At odds of 1 to 1, 2 to 1 and 3 to 1 respectively for each of these types of outcome, the expected loss as a percentage of the stake wagered is:

How To Win Big 6 Wheel

1 - [(7/54) * 2 + (4/54) * 3 + (4/54) * 4] = 22.2%

The symbolism of the game is redolent of chuck-a-luck or sic bo, games of chance played with three dice. However, the house advantage or edge is greater than for chuck-a-luck, which itself has a higher house advantage than other casino games.

This variety is seldom seen in casinos, but frequently seen as a carnival game, or at a charity 'Monte Carlo night' fund-raiser. A similar game, the 'Big Nine' wheel, has five numbers on each segment, and also three special symbols, appearing on three spaces each, which pay 10:1 odds.

United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand[edit]

A legal game in a licensed casino in the United Kingdom, Australia or New Zealand involves a wheel at least 1.5 metres in diameter divided into 52 segments, each marked with one of seven symbols (referred to as A to G). The table below sets out the frequency of the symbols, their probability, the associated odds specified, and the house advantage or edge.

G24 out of 5246.2%1 to 17.7%1 to 17.7%

Other variants[edit]

Other variants, using different symbols and odds, are relatively rare in the United States.

One variant called 'Mississippi Derby' was used for a short time at the Grand Casino in Gulfport, Mississippi. (The casino was destroyed in 2005 by Hurricane Katrina.) The symbols were combinations of three of a number of different horses, arranged to represent a winner, a second-placed horse and a third-placed horse. (The horses were represented in three concentric rings, with the winner on the outer ring.) Players wagered on particular horses to 'win', 'place' or 'show', as with betting in horse racing. The payoffs varied from horse to horse, depending on how many times and where the horse appeared on the rings. Odds ranged from 40 to 1 for the 'longshot' to win, down to 1-2 for the 'favorite' to show.
