Paying 3:2 is for the most part relatively simple no matter if you're dealing Blackjack or Dice.
Half the time you don't even use math as you simply pay by color on bets that are easy to read. But sometimes these bets can sting you.
Technically, 3 to 2 simply means the bet plus 50% Some students can indeed take any bet and add half, no problem. What is half of $584? Now add that to 584 real quick!................... Well?.... The" bet plus half" is great for simple bets but some need to be broken down.
Breaking bets down is a much better way to compute difficult payoffs using the same uniform principals as discussed throughout the site. Let's take a tour into the "first nine" at 3 to 2 odds.

Remember, always try to use "the bet, plus half" for the simple payoffs. Use the chart for more difficult payoffs.
Lets eliminate the "0" on the end of the numbers for just a second and then put it back.
140 Pays 210 instead of 140, look at 14.
14 plus half( 7 ) = 21
or 100=150, 40=60
150+60=210
220 Pays 330 look at 22
22 plus half ( 11 ) = 33
or 200=300, 20=30
300+30=330
280 Pays 420 look at 28
28 plus 1/2 (14 ) = 42
280=420
Within the $280 odds bet
you have a $200 bet and a $80 bet
(200=300, 80=120, 300+120=420)

Just imagine 3:2 odds bets stacked red and white.
We don't know how much is there until we run in all down.
Ready? You run it down and this is what we find...
$47 pays $70.50
40=60, 7=10.50
60 + 10.50 = 70.50
$63 pays $94.50
60=90, 3=4.50
90 + 4.5 - 94.50
$95 Pays $142.50

$113 pays $169.50
100 pays 150
10 pays 15 (165)
3 pays 4.50

4 pays 6
240 + 6 = 246
Too easy! Just takes practice.
