A game of guts, Russian Roulette is played between a certain set of people, 2-6 (or 1 if you are suicidal), as to see who is the luckiest and the toughest.
The players (And one referee) decide on a number of bullets and put them in a chamber of a revolver. The referee puts the bullets in the chamber, spins the chamber and slaps the chamber closed before the rotating chamber stops.
The referee hands the gun to player #1 and he puts it to his head and pulls the trigger, or he resigns, then he passes the revolver to player #2. And So on untill they get to the end.
It is famous becouse the Russians played it and it was used in interrogations by Ivan the Terrible's "Secret Police."

Russian roulette is when you take a 6 shooter and put in only one bullet. Then you spin the chamber and slam it shut, not knowing wether or not the bullet is in position to fire. Some people play the game for money when theyre desperate. Either they win money or die, solving whatever financial troubles they have. It can also be used to get information out of someone, assuming the first shot doesnt kill them.

Russian roulete is a gamble. It comes from older Russia, where people would judge themselves, when decide to commit a suicide, they would take a gun and only one bullet, and that one bullet they put inside of a gun barrel. only one, all other holes are empty. And then a man would roll the barrel very hard, and after a little while, (barrel's still rolling) he would push into his position in the gun.
that how he has no idea where is the bullet inside. And then he points the gun to his head and pulles the triger. you don't know will the first shot kill u!
a pure gamble with ur life.

Rushuing Roulette is when some very crazy people get together, get a revolving gun, put one bullet in, spin the chamber abd pull the trigger to their head. I think people use it like this, "you're playing rushing roulette with hearts" meaning you're playing with two people and someone is going to tnd up being hurt.

Russian roulette is once you're taking a 6 shooter and put in only one bullet. then you definately spin the chamber and slam it close, not understanding wether or not the bullet is in place to fireside. some human beings play the sport for funds whilst theyre desperate. the two they win funds or die, fixing regardless of financial problems they have. it could additionally be used to get concepts out of somebody, assuming the 1st shot doesnt kill them.

we use the term russian roulette when you're taking a chance at something and you don't know the outcome. its actually when you put one bullet in a revolver and spin the thing, and then you don't know when the bullet is going to be shot.
we use a toy revolver and blank caps to play russian roulette as a drinking game - the one who gets 'shot' has to take a 'shot'. its fun, and gets you drunk QUICK!

It's bad. You spin the bullet holder of a gun. One chamber has a bullet. Sometimes more. You put the gun against your head and pull the trigger. No bullet? You win. Spin again?

this is a deadly game played by taking turns pulling the trigger on a revolver after adding a bullet to the cylinder and spinning the cylinder then pointing the pistol at your self. then adding one more bullet each turn until one loses.

It is a game where you take a revolver and load one bullet into it. You then spin the chamber and put the gun to your head and pull the trigger. If you don't decorate the wall behind you, you've won.
I would say it is pretty bad.
