Parlay?

see next post

The stick moved the dice too fast. The payout was counted, but not yet placed on the layout. You are right, it is the player's responsibility to see that his bets are placed correctly, but they were not as yet placed. Yes, he was unclear when he said 'parlay' instead of parlay the 12 or parlay the hi/lo. There are some legitimate questions at the table without assuming the player is 'taking a shot' at the casino. All people can make mistakes - both dealers and players.

So, the dealer counted out the winnings, and the guy said "parlay" without anything more?

Seems simple to me: without asking for a different bet, e.g. "bet it ALL on midnight," the stickman would set it up as a hi / lo parlay, with 1/2 on 1-1, and 1/2 on 6-6.

I see no controversy.

Worst scenario is the dealer/stick/box declares "no bet" ... realizing the called bed is ambiguous.

Here's how I see it.

First, and perhaps most important, it is the bettor's responsibility to make sure that the chip are placed as intended.

Once the two chips are placed on the split line rather than one in each box, THAT is the type of bet. I.E. it's a single bet of two chips on the split line, and after a win, that is where the chips for the parlay goes. Ditto if the bettor says to press it $x.

That's assuming that the bettor did not give any other clarifying instructions.

First, the OP wrote that 2 $5 chips were tossed in, as a "hi-lo" bet and were placed on 1-1 and 12-12.
Second, the bet hit on the 12-12, and Parlay was called.

Here's the ambiguity: should the bet be $30 + $30, or should the bet be 0 on the 1-1 and $60 on the 12-12?

Most Houses here would have parlayed the bet $75 + $75 since that is the original (hi-lo) wager.
Therefore, upon the second consecutive 12-12, the hi-lo bet pays $2250.

If the $10 was placed "on the line" between the 1-1 and 12-12, the exact same result would occur.

Aside from the fact that you're saying "12-12" when you mean "6-6"...

The original post is very clear that two chips were tossed in for the "Hi/Lo", and that they were placed together on the split line between the two boxes. They were NOT separated into one chip for each box.

My last two trips to vegas I make this bet the first comeout each time I get the dice(I know its a terrible bet but I am here to gamble right? lol). OK, so I toss the stickman 3 whites and I say 2-way hi-lo parlay. Now I have never gotten to the best part of this bet (altho Ive been half-way there prob a dozen times or so). I under stand that the parlay would mean hi-lo again,but would the boys bet also mean parlay again? If I get lucky enough to get all the way there,my portion would be 450 and the boys would be 225. Do I have this right?

If that is what you want / intend, then when you first make your bet for the boys, add "piggy-backed" and then they are slaved to you.

Otherwise, their winnings would normally be locked up after that first hit.

So say 2-way hi-lo parlay piggy-backed. Man the women are going to eat that up lol. Thanks for clearing that up MrV.
