Wheel of Fortune refers to two distinct casino games that share the same name. The table game version is the Big Six vertical wheel where players bet on which segment the pointer will land on. The slot machine version is the popular IGT slot with a spinning bonus wheel feature that can award large payouts. The table version has a high house edge (11 to 24 percent) and is a novelty game. The slot version is a standard RNG-driven machine with the Wheel of Fortune branding and a bonus round. You'll find live tables at most major properties. See our full US casino directory for venue contact details and hours.
Wheel of Fortune is a brand name that covers two very different casino experiences. The table game is the Big Six wheel rebranded with the Wheel of Fortune name, typically found near casino entrances. The slot version is one of the most popular slot machine franchises in history, available on casino floors worldwide. The two games share nothing but the name and a spinning wheel visual. The table version is a simple betting game. The slot version is an RNG-driven machine with a bonus wheel feature.
How to play Wheel of Fortune
-
Table version: place your bet on one of the marked segments. The dealer spins the vertical wheel. The pointer indicates the winner.
-
Slot version: insert cash or TITO ticket, set your bet per line, press spin. The bonus wheel is triggered by three bonus symbols.
-
Table segments pay different amounts: $1 pays 1:1, $5 pays 5:1, up to the joker paying 40:1 or 45:1.
-
Slot bonus round: the wheel spins and awards credits, multipliers, or a progressive jackpot depending on which segment is selected.
-
Table version: collect winnings immediately. Slot version: credits are added to your balance.
-
Both games are pure luck. No skill or strategy affects the outcome.
Wheel of Fortune Table Game Rules
The table version is a vertical wheel divided into segments marked with dollar amounts or symbols. Players bet on the segment they think the pointer will land on. The $1 segment is the most common and pays 1:1. The $20 segment pays 20:1. The joker or logo segment pays 40:1 or 45:1. The house edge on the $1 segment is roughly 11 percent, and higher segments carry edges up to 24 percent. The game is mechanically simple and requires no explanation, which makes it popular with casual visitors. The slow pace means a small bankroll can last a while, but the high edge makes it one of the most expensive games in the casino.

Wheel of Fortune Slot Version
The Wheel of Fortune slot machine is a video slot with mechanical or digital reels. The base game plays like any standard slot: match symbols across paylines to win. The signature feature is the bonus wheel, triggered by landing three bonus symbols. The wheel spins and awards credits, multipliers, or a progressive jackpot based on the segment it lands on. The RTP is typical for slot machines (85 to 95 percent) and varies by machine model and jurisdiction. Progressive versions pool a percentage of each wager across linked machines.
The slot version is far more common than the table version in modern casinos. Compare to standard slot machines and roulette for alternative wheel-based gaming experiences.
