Vegas Highest Probability Bet
Quote: rouminDoes anyone know which game or bet in Vegas with the highest probability of wining a single bet. I am not talking about odds or casino edge. I am talking about bets with high probability which usually come with a low payout. For example: Craps lay bet on 10 or 4.

Cover 34 numbers on a roulette wheel.
If you're looking at craps, how about laying the 2/12 on crapless craps?

true - thanks
Quote: VenthusA few years back, there was a machine at The D that advertised itself to be a winner on every spin. Ran like 50$ at minbet for half an hour and not a single one was a net positive.

Assuming you are restricting this to bets where you make money if you win, you can cover 35 numbers and still make money (if one of them hits, you gain 35 on the winning number, and lose 34 on the others, so you gain 1 overall), so covering 35 has a higher probability of winning.
But there's a question: besides craps, and the 5% commission on betting the banker in baccarat, what other table games have a single bet that pays less than even money on them?

An info sheet from what appears to be a casino here: https://casino.harringtonraceway.com/sites/default/files/pdf/Crapless%20Craps.pdf
(A quick look around, not all places may allow laying 2/3/11/12.)

I'm pretty sure there's at least one carnie game that paid 1:2 on a DNQ.
How about an imprisoned bet on euro roulette? That's functionally a 'Lose half'/'Win back'
It's best you explain what your goal is and what you are trying to achieve. There are all kinds of situations and games that can accomplish certain things. There are games where it's all but certain you would bet and get a payback and I'm not talking about offsets.Quote: rouminDoes anyone know which game or bet in Vegas with the highest probability of wining a single bet.

I don't think you can find this in Vegas, but the Sheh-Sam-Hong bet in Fan Tan pays 19 to 60. Your odds of winning a single bet are 75%--i.e., greater than the odds of winning a lay 4 or 10 at craps.
