If the pay out for a Do not Pass Odds wager is the same as the amt. of the Flat bet, then the Odds bet is bridged. The part of your Odds bet that’s the same as the Flat bet is put exactly next to the Flat bet. Then, the remainder of the Odds bet is put on top "bridging" them. e.g., consider you put a 5 dollar Do not Pass bet and the shooter rolls a point of 8. Being aware of the true odds for the 8 are six to five (i.e., 6 ways to roll a seven, and 5 ways to make an 8), you then place $6 in Odds with the hope of acquiring $5. In this instance, if you win the six dollars Odds bet, you win $5, which absolutely equals the amt. you win with your five dollar Flat wager. Therefore, since your Flat bet and Odds wager aquire the same amount (5 dollars each), you bridge your $6 Odds wager by making a 5 dollar chip directly next to your five dollar Flat wager, and then putting the $1 chip so it bridges the 2 5 dollar chips.

If the payoff for a Don’t Pass Odds bet does not equal the amt. of the Flat wager, then the Odds wager is heeled. This means you place the bottom chip of your Odds bet chip stack exactly next to your Flat wager. Then, put all remaining Odds bet chips on that individual chip but to the side and angled on that bottom chip (your Odds bet chip stack is tilted as a result that it is leaning on the first chip).

Perturbed? That is okay, do not get nervous. The croupier is always ready to assist if you forget. After a few times, it all makes sense. It will not take long before you’re a master. If you are not sure what to do the first instance you try it, simply tell the croupier, "I would like to place some Odds but I do not comprehend if it needs to be bridged or heeled." The dealer asks, "How much do you want to put?" Suppose you say, "$15 to win ten." The croupier will request that you place your chips on the craps table (dealers aren’t allowed to take anything, especially chips, directly from a player), and then the dealer correctly heels or bridges them based on the amt. of your Flat bet. You’ll quickly get the hang of it. Just don’t be hesitant to ask the croupier inquiries. His job is just to deal, but also to be friendly and assist the competitors.
