To the uninitiated, the craps table is easily the most intimidating spot on the casino floor.
Once you understand the basic mechanics, it quickly becomes the most thrilling game in the house.
Understanding the Pass Line Bet
The Pass Line bet is the foundation upon which the entire game of craps is built.
If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, your Pass Line bet wins immediately.
Always bet the Pass Line on a new shooterAvoid the complex middle-table propositionsWait for the puck to say "OFF" to bet
Establishing and Hitting the Point
Once the Point is set, the objective of the game completely changes for the shooter.
The shooter must now roll that exact same Point number again before rolling a 7.
The Best Bet in the Casino
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.
