If the payoff for a Don’t Pass Odds wager is the same as the amt. of the Flat bet, then the Odds wager is bridged. The part of your Odds bet that’s the same as the Flat wager is positioned right beside to the Flat bet. Then, the rest of the Odds wager is positioned on top "bridging" them. e.g., let us say you lay a 5 dollar Do not Pass wager and the hurler rolls a point of eight. Understanding the true odds for the eight are six:five (for example., 6 ways to roll a 7, and five ways to roll an eight), you then put $6 in Odds with the expectation of winning $5. In this example, if you win the $6 Odds bet, you win five dollars, which exactly equals the amt. you win with your $5 Flat wager. Therefore, since your Flat wager and Odds bet win the same amt. ($5 each), you bridge your six dollars Odds wager by putting a 5 dollar chip directly beside to your $5 Flat wager, and then putting the one dollar chip so it bridges the two five dollar chips.
If the payout for a Do not Pass Odds bet doesn’t equal the amount of the Flat wager, then the Odds wager is heeled. This means you lay the bottom chip of your Odds bet chip stack directly next to your Flat bet. Then, put all remaining Odds wager chips on top of that single chip but to the side and angled on that first chip (your Odds wager chip stack is crooked as a result that it is angled on the bottom chip).
Flustered? That is fine, don’t get agitated. The dealer is always willing to help if you don’t remember. After a couple of instances, it all makes sense. It will not take long before you are a pro. If you are not certain what to do the initial instance you attempt it, basically tell the croupier, "I want to put some Odds but I do not comprehend if it needs to be bridged or heeled." The dealer asks, "How much do you wish to put?" Let’s say you indicate, "$15 to win ten." The croupier will request that you drop your chips on the table (dealers aren’t permitted to take anything, above all chips, right from a player), and then he correctly heels or bridges them based on the amount of your Flat wager. You’ll quickly get the hang of it. Just don’t be hesitant to ask the dealer queries. Their job is just to deal, but also to be courteous and help the gamblers.
