This tells the dealers that you are a real player.

Though a long-shot wager this would make for a very handsome toke for the dealers if it happens to hit. You will be surprised at how quickly the dealers snap to this because you have just told them that you and they are going to parlay this wager if it hits.

If you really want to show some class and get the dealers on your side immediately then throw out a wager on the hard 6 and/or 8 and yell 'TWO WAY PARLAY'.

Such wagers discourage the dealers as much as the players. Wagers made on the hardways or on 'Yo' (Eleven) mean that a significant portion of the tip goes to the casino, not to the dealers. It is rare that a player will actually lay odds for the dealers on the Don't side as the player would have to lay more money on the wager that he would on the Pass Line.ĭealers cringe when players make bad bets for them, because such bets waste a good chunk of the tip. If you take or lay odds in their behalf you will be appreciated by the dealers even more. Here's what has to say about it:ĭealers appreciate any wager made on their behalf, but they greatly prefer bets that have a low house take, such as the Pass, Come, Don't Pass, and Don't Come. They were always sure to thank me profuseley even if the eneded up not winning, something I didn't see them doing for others who were placing bets with worse odds. I noticed it made them a lot more friendly to me than the people who were placing hard way bets. I always place a passline bets for the dealers, if I am doing well I'll put odds down for them too. Hey, I used to live in Issaquah! Don't see that name too often :)
