Craps Strategy

  • We strongly recommend to bet on the pass line bet, not on the don’t
    pass line. Because is so much easier to get the correct odds and payouts
    if you are playing the pass line.
  • Take as much odds as possible on your free odds bets. This is to
    lower the house percentage. REMEMBER! The larger your free odds bet
    is in proportion to your pass line bet, the lower the house percentage!!!
  • Work more than one point during a roll. That would make your game
    more aggressive.
  • Just place pass line bets and come bets, and as we said before their
    free odds bets. Don’t take the other bets offered on the table,
    they are all for non experienced players, and normally the payoffs are
    horrible. The casino normally entices players to place this bets because
    that way the house makes an easy buck.

Try to figure out the following chart, so you’ll see the math behind
craps and it will improve your play. See that 7 is the most probably number
to be rolled any time. If you look at the last column you’ll see
that it shows the true odds of rolling point numbers before a 7.
