If you ever want a confidence booster, go to a Tunica Casino. You’ll feel like an OT-10

Hells to the yes...they also USED to have unlimited free odds wagers on the pass, don't pass and come bets...and paid....wait for it...the actual mathematical odds. You could place a $5 pass wager and when the point was established you could bet as much on the odds as you dared....I never saw them flinch with people placing $5 pass bets and $500 odds bets. Most casinos limit the odds bets to, at best the mathematical odds, but given the amounts bet at the true odds they are actually limited to full numerical value. Some casinos simply say you can take like 5-1 odds...especially harsh. The odds of winning a don't pass bet is about 49.3%, slightly better than the pass bet BUT your table mates will hate you for betting against the shooter. Allowing to bet as much as you dare on the odds when the point is 6,7 or 8 is basically a mathematical advantage over time for the player. Unheard of in a casino. Most people were hesitant to do it and the dealers wouldn't tell you you could but if you just did it they would not flinch. If you did it consistently, especially betting significantly more on 6,7 and 8 the pit boss would start offering you free meals and rooms and all manner of things to get you away from the table. Tunica craos were like a printing press if you knew how to take advantage. It was literally mathematically advantageous..
