roulettes

Games of spinning chance

Roulettes is the plural of roulette, most commonly the casino game where a ball spins on a numbered wheel: The casino had three roulettes running.

A roulette is also a small toothed wheel used in engraving or for perforating paper—the tool that creates dotted lines on postage stamps.

Russian roulette is the lethal game of chance with a revolver.
