French term for the favorable option offered at some single-zero roulette tables. The player doesn't lose his even-money bets if the zero shows. Instead the bet is locked up (imprisoned) for another spin. If the bet wins, it is returned fully. If the bet loses, the house collects it.
French phrase. A rule applied to even money bets only. When the outcome is zero, some casinos will allow the player to either take back half his bet or leave the bet (in prison) for another spin. In the second case, if the following spin the outcome is again zero, then the whole bet is lost.

This is also known as the surrender rule. Mostly applicable in European roulette; in an en prison rule, when the player makes an outside bet (even money, or red/black), and then the ball drops on 0, the player has the option to lose half the bet or retain the money at stake en prison, meaning leaving it on the table for the next spin. When a player opts to leave it, the chance or the edge of the house is considerably lowered in the next spin.
