GAMING CHIP:
Whether you want to call these chips, gaming chips, checks or whatever is purely academic. A “gaming chip” is simply a chip used in the process of gaming.
HEIGHT ADJUSTER:
This is a device on the actual roulette wheel that highers or lowers the actual cylinder itself.
HIGH NUMBERS:
These are all of the numbers in the wheel that go from 19 to 36. Even though the difference between 18 and 19 is only one digit, 18 is a low number and 19 is a high number. This is simply because there are 36 numbers in the wheel (not including zero) and those 36 numbers are divided equally so hence the “low” and “high” numbers.
HOCA:
Some roulette history comes to the fore now with this term as “Hoca” was a game that is believed to have started in France in the 1600′s and is also thought to be one of the very earliest forms of roulette.
HOUSE:
This term is often used worldwide and is a term used to describe the casino. Often you will hear phrases like “house edge” or “the house always wins” but of course we all know that no “house” is present in the traditional meaning of the word. I am not aware of the origins of the word “house” but it would be interesting to find out.
HOUSE ADVANTAGE:
This basically means the edge that is built into the actual games themselves. This edge is usually seen as covering operational costs for the casino hosting the game. The house advantage should cover all operational costs like staff salaries, utility bills and all other overheads.
