To the uninitiated, the craps table is easily the most intimidating spot on the casino floor.
However, beneath the shouting and flying dice lies one of the most exciting games available.
The Most Important Craps Bet
The core of craps revolves almost entirely around the fundamental Pass Line bet.
Conversely, if the dice show a 2, 3, or 12, the bet loses instantly, which is called "crapping out."
The Pass Line has a very low house edgeIt is the most common bet on the tableWinning on the come-out roll doubles your money
What Happens After the Point is Set?
When a Point is established, the dealer places a plastic puck on that specific number.
The shooter must now roll that exact same Point number again before rolling a 7.
Maximizing Your Craps Winnings
The Odds bet is incredibly special because the casino holds absolutely zero mathematical edge on it.
Always maximize your Odds bet up to the table limit to reduce the overall house edge.
