Roulette and Dice game concepts are completely different. The 0 is a special payout number on the roulette game. But you will loss your bet if you roll the number 50.00 on 1.98× payout (50% win chance) in the dice game. This is because of the difference of house edge concept of both games.

BTW, I had participated in some freeroll poker tournaments of Stake until now. And I have managed to win prizes from only one tournament, I had ended with 83rd rank and received $1.5 as reward.
I don't see any difference. In Roulette, you choose Black or Red, Odd or Even... and in Dice, you choose above 50 or below 50, they are both 50-50 choices.
Black or red (odd or even) is a 47.4 chance of winning a 2x bet. On dice you also don't get 2x for betting over/under 50, 2.0x pays if you bet over/over 50.50.  The win chance for this is supposedly 49.5%. In reality it should be but we all know stake.  Cool

So you have a chance of 47.4% at roulette vs a 49.5% at dice to win a 2x bet, that's a 2% difference in house edge which in the long run is HUGE.
That would be pretty hard to explain to the people, because I have seen people say "you have a 50% chance to win at blackjack, either you have a better hand than the dealer or you don't" and they think that is 50%. I love the tv show "young Sheldon" because it explains possibility and probability.

The difference is that I can go to my house today and find a million dollars or not, that doesn't make it 50-50% possibility of it, we all know that when explained this well and that tv show did it so well. However, there are still people out there who do not understand it that well, some do and still choose to ignore it and I respect those people because they made a decision, but some have no clue how any of this works at all.
