LOL, I'd imagine they get very little traffic on their sidebets, relatively speaking. All of a sudden there's 10 guys all betting every single hand. I suspicion they'd catch on. I wonder if there's a loophole in the TOC about consented collusion.

Edit: Just realized it's capped at $10. That's a hell of a lot of collusion for an expected profit of $1. Granted, you could write a software program where everyone enters their cards and the software just tells you what to do.

I only heard about this "for" terminology recently in connection with craps payoffs. Is it new? Perhaps the latest attempt to fleece customers? I think it really adds confusion to a topic for which there is already much confusion over terminology.

No, the terminology isn’t new. I learned it about thirty-five years ago, and it had been around for quite a while then.
