Paragraph 1 “Win” “Come” “Behind” wagers

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

A wager that the score on the next throw of the dice will not be 2, 3 or 12, but that either it will be 7 or 11 or, if it should be 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10, then that same score of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10, as the case may be, will occur again before a score of 7 occurs.

The odds payable if the wager is won shall be 1 to 1.

(2)

Where a person has made a wager under sub-paragraph (1) above and, on the first throw of the dice following the making of that wager, a score of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 has occurred, that person may under this sub-paragraph wager a stake equivalent to not more than the amount staked on his wager under sub-paragraph (1) above that that same score of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10, as the case may be, will occur before a score of 7 occurs.

The odds payable if a wager under this sub-paragraph is won shall, where the score wagered on is—

(a)

4 or 10, be 2 to 1;

(b)

5 or 9, be 3 to 2;

(c)

6 or 8, be 6 to 5.
