Gambling Tips - Making a Killing at Craps
The
game of Craps is considered America's most popular gambling game.
Because the Craps table uses unfamiliar language, it is often considered
very complicated. However, after learning the terminology, it is
in reality, quite easy. In the middle of the Craps table are what
is known as proposition bets. This includes all one roll proposition
bets. The House has an advantage on these bets of from 2.778% on
the "field" to 16.667% on any 2 or 12. For this reason, we will
not be going into detail on any of these bets. If you want to win
consistently, you want to stay away from these bets.
You
may stand at either end of the table, as both sides contain exactly
the same bets. If you were the first player at the table you would
stand at one end of the long table and the stickman would let you
pick a pair of dice. You, being the "shooter" would have to bet
on either the pass line bet or the Don't pass. The first roll of
the dice is called the "come-out" roll.
PASS
LINE BET
If
the dice thrown on the come-out roll total 7 or 11, ( a natural)
you win and are paid 1 to 1. (You would then bet and roll another
come-out. ) If the dice thrown total 2, 2 or 12 ( a crap ) you lose.
( The dice would then go to the next player for another come-out
roll. )
If
the dice thrown total 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 then the total becomes
the "point". You are more likely to win, than lose on the come-out
roll. However, once the point is made, the odds turn against you.
Now,
if 7 comes up on the dice, you lose the bet you made at the beginning.
If the point comes up, you win.

Come-out

Point
rolls: Point you win 7 you lose
DON'T
PASS BET
If
the dice thrown on the come-out roll bet total 7 or 11, you lose.
2 and 3 win, and on 12 you "push" (neither winning or losing).
If
the dice come up 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 as before, this becomes the
point. After this, if 7 comes up first, you win. To lose, the point
must come up.
Don't

Come-out

Points:
4 5 6 8 9 10
Point
rolls: Point you lose 7 you win
COME
BET
After
a point has been made, you may place a bet in the space marked Come.
This has almost the same rules as pass. 7 or 11 win, crap 2, 3 +
12 lose. When a new point is established, the bet is moved to the
appropriate box above the come space. Then the bet wins if the point
appears, loses if 7 appears first. Payment again is 1 to 1.
DON'T
COME BET
After
a point has been made, you may place a bet in the space marked Don't.
This has almost the same rules as don't pass. 7 or 11 lose, crap
2 + 3 win, 12 is a push. When one of the point numbers comes up,
the bet is moved to the appropriate box. Now you want 7 to come
up before your don't come point number. After what you have read
so far is understood, you can "lay the odds". A bet not even on
the Craps table.
Let's
say you have made a pass line bet and point 5 has been established.
You may now bet a like amount by placing it behind your pass line
bet. This means an "odds bet" on 5. If 7 turns up before 5, you
lose both bets. If 5 turns up before 7, you win both bets.
On
a come point the bet is the same. You identify the point to the
dealer saying for example "odds on 5". He will place your bet on
top of your come bet.
If
the come-out roll intervenes this, the odds bet is off unless you
specify to the dealer that you wages "work" on the come-out roll.
ODDS
Payoff ( by exact odds )
Point
4 or 10 6 to 3 5 or 9 6 to 4 6 or 8 6 to 5
To
maximize the odds, you should bet 3 units of the table minimum so
you may always get full odds.
Pass
+ Come Don't Pass + Don't Come
Point
payoff Bet payoff
4
or 10 2 to 1 6 units 3 to 6 5 or 9 3 to 2 6 units 4 to 6 6 or 8
6 to 5 6 units 5 to 6
In
this way, if the point is 5 or 9, you may be a full 6 units ( more
than the original bet ) instead of the actual odds of 4 1/2 to 3.
Work
on your game and begin this way: 1st bet only on the pass line.
When you have learned the game well enough, bet full odds on the
point rolls. Then make come bets and bet full odds on point rolls
( You can at this point bet don't pass or don't come with full odds
).
