While chips are basically the only betting unit used in most casinos, there is another form of "coin" that is making its way into use in Las Vegas. The token, an almost-dollar-sized coin that is not quite the same weight of an Eisenhower silver dollar has now found its way into widespread use in Las Vegas casino. Originally approved by the Nevada Gaming Commission in 1965 as legal substitutes for the no longer manufactured silver dollars, tokens never found widespread acceptance in most casinos. Casino Chips
Pass Line
This is commonly called the back line. This bet is favored by smart dice casino players, but few other players take this action. Because this wager has a standoff they think erroneously that it has a high house percentage. To illustrate: The player who wants to bet the shooter to lose before the come-out places his bet on the layout space marked either DON'T PASS, LOSE or DON'T. In a private game this bet would give the player a favorable P.C. of 1.414% over the shooter or right bettor. pass Line

Take note that the payoff is always for a total of nine units. This is certainly a very fair return for an initial investment of only three units! The units that are being mentioned here always refer to the individual chips. The value of the chip is not important. For instance, if you are playing for $1 chips, your initial investment would be $3. Assuming a point of six, this can be increased to five units, or $5. Systems And Strategies

We had a discussion as to whether the casinos are honest and I said they positively were. But how about the patron? There is an axiom all over, that the last check you get is always a stiff. A severely pressed customer chasing his dollars often succumbs to the pressure and loses his sense of moral value. He writes a check and doesn’t have the money to back it up. To him it isn’t the same as doing this in New York or Los Angeles, at a grocery store or in a garage. But of course, it is. Gambling Stories
