Winning probability and payout are different quantities. Expected return requires both, and the position of a betting area on the layout does not indicate safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Profit odds and total return<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A payout of 6:1 in profit odds means six units profit plus the original stake, or seven units returned on a winning one-unit bet. A label of \u201c6 for 1\u201d instead describes six units in total. Confusing these conventions produces an incorrect house-edge calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For an all-or-nothing bet with winning probability p and profit odds b:1, house edge is 1 \u2212 p \u00d7 (b + 1). Bets with several winning payout levels require each probability-weighted return to be included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example paytable and house edge<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The following examples assume return of the winning stake and the precise conditions shown. They are not a universal paytable for every Canadian service or multiplier variant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Bet and rule<\/th><th>Winning outcomes \/ 216<\/th><th>Example profit odds<\/th><th>House edge<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Big or Small, triples excluded<\/td><td>105<\/td><td>1:1<\/td><td>2.78%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Odd or Even, triples excluded<\/td><td>105<\/td><td>1:1<\/td><td>2.78%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Two different specified faces<\/td><td>30<\/td><td>6:1<\/td><td>2.78%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Single number, at least one match<\/td><td>91<\/td><td>1:1 \/ 2:1 \/ 3:1 by match count<\/td><td>7.87%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Specified double, including its triple<\/td><td>16<\/td><td>10:1<\/td><td>18.52%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total 9 or total 12, each separately<\/td><td>25<\/td><td>7:1<\/td><td>7.41%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total 10 or total 11, each separately<\/td><td>27<\/td><td>6:1<\/td><td>12.50%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Any triple<\/td><td>6<\/td><td>30:1<\/td><td>13.89%<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Specified triple<\/td><td>1<\/td><td>180:1<\/td><td>16.20%<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Counting doubles and single-number matches<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Exactly two occurrences of one specified face have 15 ordered outcomes. Including the triple adds one, so a double bet that wins on at least two matches has 16 outcomes. At 10:1 profit odds, 1 \u2212 (16\/216 \u00d7 11) gives an 18.52% edge. If a rule excludes triples, that is a different calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a single-number entry, exactly one, two and three matches have 75, 15 and one outcomes respectively. Together they give 91\/216, or 42.13%, not 34.72%. The <a href=\"https:\/\/winneronline.net\/ca\/casino-games\/sic-bo\/sic-bo-rules-betting-options\/combination-single-number-bets\/\">single-number guide<\/a> explains the tiered payout calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequency of exact totals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Totals 3 through 18 have, in order, these numbers of ordered outcomes: 1, 3, 6, 10, 15, 21, 25, 27, 27, 25, 21, 15, 10, 6, 3, 1. Each count is divided by 216 for its probability. Not every layout offers every total as a separate bet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Totals 9 and 12 each have 25 outcomes, while 10 and 11 each have 27. They should not share a single approximate house-edge figure. At 6:1, a total of 9 has an 18.98% edge; at 7:1, it has 7.41%. The probability stays the same while the payout changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Range exclusions and enhanced payouts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the common Big\/Small rule, every triple loses even when its sum is in the named range. Each range then has 105 winning and 111 losing results. Removing only the in-range triple exclusion would not make the written ranges 4\u201310 and 11\u201317 exactly 50\/50, because totals 3 and 18 remain outside them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enhanced-payout games need their full rules, including which areas qualify, selection frequencies and ordinary payouts. A headline boosted maximum cannot establish overall RTP. See <a href=\"https:\/\/winneronline.net\/ca\/casino-games\/sic-bo\/sic-bo-live-dealer-variants\/super-sic-bo\/\">Super Sic Bo<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/winneronline.net\/ca\/casino-games\/sic-bo\/sic-bo-live-dealer-variants\/mega-sic-bo\/\">Mega Sic Bo<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the figures do not promise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An expected-loss percentage does not guarantee a session result or make a staking progression profitable. Adding a wager on triples introduces another cost rather than general insurance.
