Actually no roulette doesn't give you a 50% odds by picking a color.
There are 3 colors in roulette:
18 reds
18 blacks
and either 1 or 2 greens (depends on the house)
So if you play black, that is 18 out of 37 or 18 out of 38. Otherwise seen as .486465, and .47368 respectively. Not quite 50% and how they make their money.
As someone that has had $100 riding on black and hit 00, I can tell you those greens do count. But heck it's only money.
This is of course not the odds if you manage to have a cell phone that tracks the ball.
