Mastering The Game Of Casino Craps

To the uninitiated, the craps table is easily the most intimidating spot on the casino floor.


Despite its complex appearance, the fundamental rules of craps are surprisingly straightforward.

How to Bet the Pass Line

Every beginner should exclusively focus on the Pass Line wager when starting out.


You place this bet before the "come-out roll," which is the very first roll of a new round.

The Pass Line has a very low house edgeIt is the most common bet on the tableWinning on the come-out roll doubles your money
Establishing and Hitting the Point

If any other number (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10) is rolled, that number becomes the "Point."


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.


Taking full odds is the secret strategy used by all professional craps players.
