french roulette, is it actually better odds than european?

so everyone keeps saying french roulette gives you better odds because of la partage or en prison, right? i get that if the ball lands on zero, you only lose half your even money bets instead of the whole thing, and in theory it means a lower house edge. but does that really work out better for you in actual play, or does it just feel like it? i've noticed live tables with those rules usually have higher minimums too, which sort of cancels it out for me. anyone here actually profit more on french than european, or is it just hype?

The house edge drop from la partage is real, but in practice higher minimums spike your risk if you aren’t strict with session limits. If you care more about consistent bankroll stretch than edge math, European usually wins out.

French roulette's lower edge is legit, but I once got wrecked in international roulette because higher table limits ate into my buy-in faster than the math could save me. Unless you’ve got deep pockets or a monster run, the real-world edge rarely feels like a game changer.
