Outcome table

A corner pays 8:1 net, or nine times its chip including stake.

Worked example

If 26 lands, its one-corner chip returns nine gross. Six other chips lose, and 9 − 7 = +2 net. If 32 lands, both of its corner bets win and return 18 gross, so the net is +11. If 9 lands, none of the listed corners contains it and all seven units lose. The calculations subtract the complete original layoutequipmentLayoutThe printed betting grid on the table.

Expectation and risk

The chance of any covered pocket is 27/37 = 72.973% on a European wheel, but this layout has uneven positive outcomes because of the overlap. Its expected result is (26 × 2 + 11 − 10 × 7) / 37 = −7/37 units per spin, precisely one thirty-seventh of the total stake. A high hit rate does not cancel the size or frequency of the ten losing outcomes. The explicit normalization also matters: citing a different total stake without defining chip units cannot establish different coverage.
