    Abstract: A method of playing a side game concurrently playable with a game of roulette includes accepting side bet wagers from players in a first side game during a wager phase for the game of roulette. The side bet wagers are independent of wagers placed on the roulette game. Two or more side game symbols are selected from a first symbol set which are playable in the game of roulette. Each of the side game symbols are assigned a payout value, such that at least one of the assigned payout values is a fixed payout value utilized for each play of the side game and another of the assigned payout values is a variable payout value. A determination is made if any of the selected side game symbols match a winning roulette symbol. Side game prizes are awarded to winning side bet players according to the corresponding assigned payout value.
