That 30 for 30 taught me to never invest in car washes.

But yes, YO-LEVEN (or as one dealer calls it, "YO ADRIENNE!") is an eleven call.

This is what the dealers will say in craps when somebody rolls an 11. It's a good number to roll, it can't hurt anybody playing the pass line or the come, and it pays on the come out (the first roll before somebody has a point number or number they're trying to roll again).

Never even say the word seven after the come out roll

7 is a loser if it's rolled at any point after the come out. If there is no point number and you roll a 7 everybody on the pass line wins. If there is a point and you roll a 7 the house takes every chip on the table (aside from the don't pass and the come) and the dice move to the next player.

unless you're paying off a dollar hard 4 or 10.

Superstition says not to say 7 after the come out roll. Unless, as OP said, you're paying a dollar hard 4 or 10. A hard four is a roll of 2 deuces, a hard ten is a roll of 2 fives. You can bet that the shooter will roll a hard four or hard ten with as little as 1 dollar. These bets both pay out 8 for 1, which means the gambler would get a total of 8 dollars back including the 1 dollar they bet which will stay on the table as a hard 4 or 10 bet unless they take it back. That means the dealer will pay the gambler 7 dollars to complete the 8 for 1 payout.

tl;dr - Yo Eleven is what dealers say when somebody rolls an 11; never say the number 7 at a craps table; if you bet 1 dollar on somebody rolling two 2's or two 5's you'll win 7 dollars so the dealer will say 7, but that's the only time they'll say it.

And even then your wife will eventually just put it all in a storage locker because she's too lazy to ring up fake transactions.

I hated how she had to explain why she wasn't involved every time they did a balloon experiment/game.
