A "hardway" bets that a number rolls as a pair — a hard 8 means two 4s. They pay well but carry steep house edges of 9.09% to 11.11%.
A hard 8 (4+4) wins only if the shooter rolls two 4s before either a 7 or an "easy" 8 (6+2 or 5+3). The bet stays up across rolls until one of those resolves it.
| Bet | Pays | House Edge |
|---|---|---|
| Hard 6 or 8 | 9:1 | 9.09% |
| Hard 4 or 10 | 7:1 | 11.11% |
They are fun, high-payout long shots, not strategy bets. At 9.09% (hard 6/8) and 11.11% (hard 4/10), they drain a bankroll faster than the line bets. Bet them for entertainment, not value.

A hard 8 pays 9:1. The hard 6 also pays 9:1, while the hard 4 and hard 10 pay 7:1.
A 7, or the number rolled the "easy" way (for example, an 8 made with 6+2 or 5+3 beats a hard 8).
