If the payout for a Don’t Pass Odds bet is the same as the amount of the Flat wager, then the Odds wager is bridged. The part of your Odds bet that’s equal to the Flat bet is laid directly beside to the Flat wager. Then, the remainder of the Odds bet is placed on top "bridging" them. e.g., consider you put a five dollar Don’t Pass wager and the player rolls a point of eight. Being aware of the true odds for the eight are six:five (for example., six ways to make a seven, and five ways to roll an eight), you then lay 6 dollars in Odds with the hope of acquiring $5. In this example, if you actually win the $6 Odds wager, you win $5, which absolutely equals the amt. you earn with your 5 dollar Flat bet. Therefore, since your Flat bet and Odds wager win the same amt. (5 dollars each), you bridge your six dollars Odds wager by placing a five dollar chip immediately beside to your five dollar Flat wager, and then putting the $1 chip so it bridges the two $5 chips.
If the payout for a Don’t Pass Odds wager doesn’t equal the amt. of the Flat bet, then the Odds wager is heeled. This alludes to the fact that you place the first chip of your Odds wager chip stack exactly next to your Flat wager. Then, place all remaining Odds wager chips on top of that single chip but offset and angled on that bottom chip (your Odds wager chip stack is tilted as a result that it’s leaning on the first chip).
Befuddled? That’s fine, don’t get nervous. The dealer is always willing to help if you forget. After a few times, it all makes sense. It will not take long before you’re an expert. If you are not certain what to do the initial time you attempt it, basically tell the dealer, "I want to lay some Odds but I don’t know if it really should be bridged or heeled." The croupier asks, "How much do you want to place?" Let’s say you indicate, "15 dollars to win ten." The dealer will request that you place your chips on the table (croupiers aren’t permitted to collect anything, notably chips, directly from a patron), and then the croupier correctly heels or bridges them based on the amount of your Flat wager. You will quickly get the feel of it. Just don’t be scared to ask the dealer inquiries. His or Her job is just to deal, but also to be friendly and help the players.
