You then need to combine them into the best possible betting strategies. Read more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/basics-of-craps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">basics of craps<\/a> here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Quick Craps Bets Refresher <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The best craps strategy only requires knowledge of a limited number of bet types. Let\u2019s do a quick review of the basic bets with the lowest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/features\/house-edge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">house advantage<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Pass Line<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The shooter makes <em>come out<\/em> rolls until a <em>point<\/em> is rolled (a 4,5,6,8,9, or 10). During come out rolls, your Pass Line bet wins (and pays even money) if the shooter hits a 7 or 11, and loses on a 2,3, or 12.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once a point has been established, only two rolls matter; the Pass Line bet now wins if that point appears again, and loses on a 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note how the odds shift against you. During the come out roll, there are 8 ways to win instantly (on 7 and 11) and only 4 ways to lose (2, 3 and 12). &nbsp;But with a point established, you\u2019re at a statistical disadvantage. If the point is 6 or 8, a Pass Line bet wins five times for every six times a 7 appears, making for a 45% win probability. A 5 or 9 have just a 40% win probability, and 4 or 10 have a dismal 33% chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Come<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When the bettor wants to cheer for additional numbers, they can bet the Come. The rules for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/craps-come-bet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Come bets<\/a> are almost identical to Pass Line bets, save for the timing of the bet. You can only place Come bets before point rolls. Once placed, they follow the same sequence and rules as a Pass Line bet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Don\u2019t Pass\/Don\u2019t Come<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Betting the Don\u2019t Pass and Don\u2019t Come follow rules that are almost the mirror image of their right way counterparts. What wins for the right way loses for the wrong way and vice versa, with one exception: for the right way, a 12 represents a loss on come out rolls, but it\u2019s only a push for wrong way players. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, knowing all this, what\u2019s the best way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/us\/craps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">play craps<\/a>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Pass-Line-and-Come-Bet-Craps-Strategy\">Strategy #1: Pass Line and Come Bet Craps Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When there\u2019s a hot shooter, you\u2019ll hear the siren song of Place and Lay bets, which allow you to get multiple numbers up and running immediately. You might look longingly at the Props bets or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/craps-field-bet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Field bet<\/a>. Don\u2019t do it! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re betting with or against the shooter, bet the Pass Line during the come-out roll, back it with odds (see Strategy #2), and build numbers through Come bets. Only place bets with the smallest house advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"632\" src=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/field-bet-in-craps.jpg\" alt=\"Craps table showing come bet area and pass line \" class=\"wp-image-39702\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/field-bet-in-craps.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/field-bet-in-craps-480x303.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/field-bet-in-craps-840x531.jpg 840w, https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/field-bet-in-craps-420x265.jpg 420w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image credit: Matt Apps\/Shutterstock<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Odds-Bet-Craps-Strategy\">Strategy #2: Odds Bet Craps Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once a point is established, Pass Line or Come bets are underdogs. Remember the pyramid: 7 is always more likely to come up than the point. So how do we salvage these bets? With Odds bets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both land-based and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online casinos<\/a> let you reduce the house advantage by <em>backing<\/em> your Pass Line or Come bets with an additional Odds bet that\u2019s a multiple (usually 2 or 3x) the original wager amount. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Why do this if you\u2019re at a statistical disadvantage? Because the payout on Odds bets are made with no house advantage; that is, these wagers are offered at&nbsp;what is known as <em>true odds<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 6 or 8 have five ways of appearing versus the 7\u2019s six, the casino pays 6-to-5 on an odds bet backing a 6 or 8. Odds payoffs are in proportion to a point\u2019s disadvantage versus a 7. Odds bets pay 3-to-2 on 5 and 9 and pay 2-to-1 on 4 and 10.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you\u2019ve got a Pass Line bet and the point is 4. The 4 can come only three ways (2-2, 3-1, and 1-3) versus the six ways a 7 can come up. Since the bet is twice as likely to lose as it is to win, true odds means the house pays you twice your wagered amount should it win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assuming 3x Odds betting is allowed, that means your Pass Line bet on 4 has gone from a 33% house advantage to a little north of 8%. That\u2019s a significant improvement. It doesn\u2019t make you more likely to win craps, it just means you get paid off better when you do win. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that makes Odds bets always worth making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example: Basic Betting Sequence Using Strategy #1 and #2<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a basic approach you can take that gives you exposure to two numbers at a time, assuming 3x odds are allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Buy in with at least 15x the minimum bet at the table. At a $10 table, you should buy in for at least $150 in chips. But remember to only ever bet what you can afford to lose.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bet a unit ($10) on the pass line. Replace it as necessary in the event of a 2,3, or 12 on the come-out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Once a point is established, back it with full odds and place another unit on the Come.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Should the Come bet win, take your payout and place another unit on the Come.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This betting sequence will get you comfortable with placing odds bets and with monitoring two numbers at once. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you play in the casino, Come bets can take some getting used to as the dealers physically move your chips from the Come bet area to the numbered square of the established point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you get a feel for managing multiple numbers, and once you\u2019ve experienced the joys of a long roll (along with the pain of a 7-out wiping out your bets), you can up your game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"6-8-Craps-Strategy\">Strategy #3: 6 8 Craps Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember strategy #1 about sticking to the basic bets? There is one exception to this rule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A Place bet lets you select a number and bet on it directly. Like your other bets, Place bets win when that number comes up and lose on a 7. They differ from a Come bet in that you skip the come out roll sequence and get a number of your choice working right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Place bets on the 4,5,9, and 10 come with a big house advantage, the 6 and 8 Place bets actually have a reasonable house edge that\u2019s only slightly worse than an equivalent Come bet (assuming 3x odds). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So strategy #3 is to accelerate your game play to get more numbers working at once, and to Place the 6 or 8 to get them up sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example: Intermediate Betting Sequence Using Strategy #3<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting more numbers working exposes you to a bigger loss at one time, but it gives you more ways to win. And you\u2019re positioned to rake in big money should a player go on a long roll without a 7-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Buy in with at least 20x the minimum bet at the table.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bet a unit on the Pass Line; take full odds when a point is established.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If your point is a 4, 5, 9, or 10, bet a two(-ish)* unit Place bet on either the 6 or 8<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bet a single unit Come bet and back it with full odds.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maintain three numbers at once using the Come and Place bets to replace a winner.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal of this strategy is two-fold: to get three numbers working as soon as possible, and to make sure one of those numbers is the 6 or 8. This is why it&#8217;s known as the 6 8 craps strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>*The 6\/8 Place bet pays out at 7-to-6, so bet it in increments of $6. At a $10 minimum game, that means $18 or $24 works. (You can bet in any increment you want, but the goal is to make it easy for the casino to pay you off.) When in doubt, ask the dealer; they\u2019ll let you know if the amount you\u2019ve bet needs adjusting.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019re comfortable with craps strategy #3, you can see how it could be easily expanded by using Place bets to always maintain both the 6 and 8, while using the Come bet to build on the other numbers. It\u2019s not unheard of for experienced players to have 4, 5, or all 6 numbers to be working at once through a combination of Pass Line, Come, and Place bets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Don't-Come-And-Don't-Pass-Craps-Strategy\">Strategy #4: Don&#8217;t Come And Don&#8217;t Pass Craps Strategy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, betting against the dice is actually slightly more advantageous than betting with them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also a gameplay advantage with Don\u2019t bets. For one thing, with multiple numbers up, a 7-out turns into a big payday as all your Pass and Come bets get paid off at once. On the other hand, when the shooter hits a point, you\u2019ll only lose one bet at a time; there\u2019s no way to get completely wiped in the manner of 7 taking down all active numbers for a right way bettor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So why not bet the Don\u2019t Pass and Don\u2019t Come every time? Well, there\u2019s a non-monetary cost to being a wrong-way bettor in a live game. Craps is a social game and most people at the table are betting <em>with<\/em> the dice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means there\u2019s cheering and backslapping and camaraderie when the shooter hits points, or even simply has a long roll. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you approach a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/blog\/craps-table-layout\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">craps table<\/a> full of right-way players and plunk down a big bet on the Don\u2019t Pass, you\u2019ll quickly become the least popular person at the table, because you\u2019re hoping for a sequence of dice throws that simultaneously rips their hearts out and fattens your wallet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Example: Advanced Betting Sequence Using Strategy #4<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>So, you\u2019ve decided to join the dark side. Congratulations, as you\u2019re going to be making bets with the lowest house advantage on the table, making it arguably the best mathematical craps strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Buy in with at least 20x the minimum bet at the table.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bet a unit on the Don\u2019t Pass Line; lay* full odds when a point is established.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bet a unit on Don\u2019t Come and lay full odds until you have three numbers working.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Should the shooter hit a point and take down one of your working numbers, replace it. But only do this twice. Yes, this is more about emotion than rationality, but if a shooter starts hitting points, it can feel like the start of a long roll. Rather than fighting the tide, sometimes it\u2019s best to accept your fate. Once you\u2019ve replaced two points, let the roll play out until your bets win with a 7-out. If all your numbers get knocked down, sit out until the next shooter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>*When you bet the wrong way, you don\u2019t place Odds bets like you would for Pass Line and Come bets. These are true odds payouts, which means you back your bet by laying odds. The math is the exact inverse of placing odds on right way bets. On a 6\/8, you\u2019re laying increments of $6, which will pay $5 on a win. On 5\/9 you\u2019re laying an easy multiple of 3 that will get paid out at 2-to-3. And on 4\/10, you can lay any even number as the bet will get paid off at 1-to-2.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Craps Playing Strategies Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to the best craps strategy, keep one simple rule of thumb in mind. No bet-sizing or sequencing combination can overcome a house advantage, no matter how small it is. So, your goal in craps is to bet in ways the minimizes house advantage while maximizing your fun, and in such a way that suits your style of play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Enjoyed this?
