Craps is the casino game packed with more betting options than any game in the world – in fact there are around 40 in most versions of the game! However, don't be scared off because online Craps can be turned into one of the games with the lowest casino edge (I thought that might get your attention!)
When compared to other games of chance such as slots and roulette – Craps can offer you a serious advantage. However, not all Craps bets will give you an edge – just check out the casino advantage on the most popular Craps wagers:
Seven -16.66%
Eleven -16.66%
Place wagers - 1.51%.
Buy wagers - 4.76%.
Hard ways - 9.09% or 11.11%
Pass line - 1.414%
Don't pass - 1.402%
Come/Don't Come bets - 1.414% or 1.402%
Field Bet - 5.55%.
Any Craps – 11.11%
Big 6 & 8 - 9.09%
As you can see, the casino generally has an edge in Craps, and that means unless you're having a hot session with the dice – you won't walk away with cash stuffed in your pocket.
However, you can enhance your chances with a strategic approach – turning the odds more in your favour!
Betting on Pass the Line Craps bets
If you're new to Craps, you need to know that The Pass the Line wager is initially made before the new shooter makes a roll. If the gamer rolls a 7 or 11 you win, but lose with a 2, 3 or 12.
Now take note – if a 4, 5, 6, 8. 9 or 10 is rolled a point is set (the point they must roll again before rolling a 7), which is the trigger for you to turn the odds in your favour, with the 'Odds Bet'!
Simply put – many Craps tables allow you to place a second bet on the Pass the Line wager, once the point has been defined. If the shooter hits the point, you win at even money for the first wager and receive a second payout for the additional wager – dramatically reducing the casino's edge:
Point of 4 or 10: 2:1
Point of 5 or 9: 3:2
Point of 6 or 8: 6:5
The amount of cash you're allowed to place on the Craps Odds bet may vary – for example some games allow you to double the value of your initial Pass the Line stake:
Pass The Line Stake = £100
Craps Odds stake = £200
So, hit the Craps casinos with this cool tip and see if you can beat the casino when betting on the shooter – you can even use it during free bonus sessions to bank some cash!
