Place Bet System
|
After making a bet on Don’t Pass, and a number is established, and you have placed the number, make another bet, this time on Don’t Come. If a number is thrown, place that number. You now have two numbers. Then make another bet on Don’t Come. If a number is thrown, place that number. Now you have three numbers—the more the merrier because, if numbers are being made, you will be winning money on your place bets. As soon as one of your place bet numbers hits and you are paid, bet again on Don’t Come. If a number is thrown and you place that number, you still have three numbers. Continue to play this way until the shooter misses or sevens out. When the shooter sevens out, the dealer “locks up” your place bets, but he will pay your bet on Don’t Pass and your two bets on Don’t Come. Start again with the next shooter. Three bets are sufficient for the experienced player. It will keep you busy and on your toes— especially if you are making these bets by yourself.

Prop Bets
|
|
The worst bet at the dice table is one that sounds rather plausible, so inexperienced players are tempted to place it. By making the “any seven” bet, these players are hoping that the shooter will roll a seven on the next roll. It seems reasonable since there are more ways to make a seven (six ways), than any other number. But the payoff does not reflect the many other numbers that can be rolled, so the any seven bet carries a hefty 16.7 percent house edge. The true odds on any seven are five-to-one, but it only pays four-to-one.

Big Field Bets
|
One of the most popular bets for inexperienced craps players is the field bet. Once again, it seems like a good bet. The betting area occupies a large chunk of the craps layout at each end of the, table. For the table minimum, a player can wager that the two, three, four, nine, ten, eleven or twelve will appear on the next roll. Only a five, six, seven or eight will defeat that bet. The bet pays even money.

Craps Betting
|
|
Just as the don’t player bets completely the opposite from the right player, Jack is attracted to completely the opposite type of game. After scouting the casino for the quietest craps table, one where the players seem to be just pushing their chips from the pass line to the table are favored nicknames for the hard six. Windows or the Square Pair is the hard eight. Twelves are usually known as Boxcars, but on occasion are called Sergeant’s Stripes, a reflection of the barracks games where many players cut their craps teeth.The bets you can make have some distinctive names. The Buffalo Bet, for example, means that you put $1 each on all the hardways and $1 on the “any seven”. A bet you’ll still hear a lot at the table is “C and F” which means “any craps” and “eleven”. On the odd rare occasion, you will hear this called “Chester and Esther”.

Craps tips and info
|
|
Once you get into the $100 bracket, when you’re betting $100 and making two or three numbers, you can afford to give the next couple of shooters a chance before quitting. Play blackjack or roulette for a while. That’s the only way to play 5%. Do not let the size of the bet interfere with your betting. Remember, if you do reach a $50 or $100 bet, it’s not your money. It’s the house’s money.
