This is relatively simple, the house edge against you is relatively small when you apply a correct craps strategy to win. Another advantage of playing craps is the excitement and entertainment value it gives you. Lets now look at how you can apply a craps strategy to win and also have some great fun. Craps strategy History of the game The playing of dice for money or possessions goes back far into history. We hear of it firstly in the (Rig Veda X:34) Hymn 50. This was written perhaps before 1500 B.C. and only then from an earlier ancient oral tradition. Todays craps have their own rules and betting customs, but one can be sure, there is not that much difference. Craps Strategy The Odds In todays game, you can, if you follow the craps strategy below, bring the odds at least to evenor about so, and with some patience, a sizable stake, and knowledge, you can win with this craps strategy. Unlike the unhappy king who lost a kingdom and in Hymn 50 advises tilling the land and leaving dice alone, we will show you how not to get burned, and have some fun. Craps strategy - The basics The craps table is oblong, and the shooters stand at one of the narrow ends, and throw the dice to the other side. The rules say that when you come out if you roll a 7 or 11, you win. If you roll a 2,3, or 12 you lose. Any other number becomes your point and you throw until you hit that number, whereby you win, or a 7 whereby you lose. Craps strategy The odds The secret for winning at craps is to have a craps strategy in your betting, and bring the odds as close to even as you can, where the house holds the lowest edge possible. Lets look at the best bets to incorporate in your craps strategy On the table you will see a pass or dont pass betting area. The pass line bet wins on an opening 7 or 11. The dont pass line wins when the shooter throws a 2,3, or 12. This is known as craps. There are many bets possible, but we will concentrate here on getting the odds in your favor. The bet is call Free Odds Bet and is the one your winning craps strategy should be based upon. Free Odds Bet This bet is available only after you put a bet on the pass line. Its called Free Odds because the house has no statistical advantage on the player in this bet. It must be remembered that if you MUST put a bet on the pass line, and so the house gets a small odds advantage there. When the point is determined (the come out roll is not a 7 or 11, where you won anyway, or a 2,3, or 12 where you lost anyway), you can place a bet equal to your bet on the pass line. This bet reinforces your pass line bet. This bet is safe, as if the point is made (the same number comes up once again before a 7), you will win on the pass line and the free odds line bet. It becomes slightly complicated here, as the point made will have it own odds based on the difficulty in achieving that number. As points, 4 and 10 are the easiest, so they pay out 2 to 1. 5 and 9 are the next most difficult and the payout is set to 3 to 1. The hardest numbers to achieve are 6 and 8, so they pay out 6 to 5. Craps strategy The way to win is simple Betting on the Free Odds bet will double your pay out should you win. There are many more bets, but they will have greater odds against you, and your chances of winning are reduced. The Free Odds will keep you playing for hours and can get you an edge to win and is the basis of any craps strategy to win and make money at this fun and exciting game. |
