Hardways —
These are bets that the shooter will roll
the indicated number (4, 6, 8 or 10) as a
matched pair (doubles, i.e. the
hard way)
before either a 7 or the indicated number
the easy way
(i.e. not as a double. For example: a Six as
5+1or 4+2 rather than as a 3+3). Hardway
bets are always active - even during the
Come Out roll. They may be placed, modified
or removed at any time before any roll.
Hardway bets are resolved according to the
following table:

One Roll Bets
— This is a group of high payout bets
that are valid for one roll only, thus they
do not persist beyond the next roll. They
may be placed, modified or removed before
any roll.
Any Seven
— Bets that the next roll will be a
7, made from any combination (1+6, 2+5,
3+4, 4+3, 5+2, 6+1). If a 7 comes up on
the next roll, bet pays 5 for 1 (4-to-1).
Loses on any other number.
Any Craps
— Bets that one of the craps
numbers (2, 3 or 12) will hit on the next
roll (can be any roll, doesn't need to be
a Come Out roll). Winning bet pays 8 for 1
(7-to-1). Bet loses if any number other
than 2, 3 or 12 comes up on the next roll.
C & E Bets
— The C bet is just another way to
place an Any Craps bets. Clicking any C
spot will place that bet on the lowermost
C, and it pays 8 for 1 (7-to-1) on any
craps (2, 3 or 12) and loses on all other
numbers. Similarly, the
E
Eleven or
Yo bet is
just another way to place an 11 Horn bet
(5+6 or 6+5). Clicking any E spot will
place that bet on the lowermost E, and it
pays 16 for 1 (15-to-1) if the next roll
is 11 and loses on all other numbers.
C & E
Split — Placing a chip on the
horizontal bar connecting the C and E
spots allows you to cover both Any Craps
and Any Eleven bets with a single wager.
Clicking any C-E bar will place that bet
on the topmost C-E bar. Bet wins if 2, 3,
11 or 12 appear on the next roll, and
loses on any other result. Winning bet
pays 4 for 1 (3-to-1) on craps (2, 3 or
12) or 8 for 1 (7-to-1) on Yo (11).
Specific
Horn Bets — Bets that the next roll
of the dice will be a 2, 3, 11 or 12 as
indicated by the bet location showing that
number total from two dice. Specific Horn
bets are resolved on the next roll of the
dice according to the following table:

4-Way Horn
Bet — Placing chips in the box
marked Horn Bet
covers all four individual Horn bets with
a single wager (must be a multiple of 4).
If either a 2 or 12 hits on the next roll,
the wager will be paid 31 for 4 (27-to-4),
or if either a 3 or 11 comes up on the
next roll, it pays 16 for 4 (12-to-4).
This is an easy way of covering all four
horn bets with a single click, and is
equivalent to placing 1/4th of the wager
in each of the four individual Horn Bet
locations.

;o) Fishing For a Sale
A keen country lad applied for a salesman's job at a city
department store. In fact it was the biggest store in the
world - you could get anything there. The boss asked him, "Have
you ever been a salesman before?"
Yes, I was a salesman in the country" said the lad. The boss
liked the cut of him and said, "You can start tomorrow and
I'll come and see you when we close up."
The day was long and arduous for the young man, but finally 5
o'clock came around. The boss duly fronted up and asked, "How
many sales did you make today?"
"One," said the young salesman.
"Only one?" blurted the boss, "most of my staff make 20 or 30
sales a day. How much was the sale worth?"
"Three hundred thousand dollars," said the young man.
"How did you manage that?" asked the flabbergasted boss.
"Well," said the salesman "this man came in and I sold him a
small fish hook, then a medium hook and finally a really large
hook. Then I sold him a small fishing line, a medium one and a
huge big one. I asked him where he was going fishing and he
said down the coast.
I said he would probably need a boat, so I took him down to
the boat department and sold him that twenty foot schooner
with the twin engines. Then he said his Volkswagen probably
wouldn't be able to pull it, so I took him to the car
department and sold him the new Deluxe Cruiser."
The boss took two steps back and asked in astonishment, "You
sold all that to a guy who came in for a fish hook?"
"No," answered the salesman "He came in to buy a box of
Tampons for his wife and I said to him, 'Your weekend's shot,
you may as well go fishing.'"
