While the Pass Line and Come bets are clearly and brightly marked, the Don't Passand Don't Come are not so obvious. Laying odds on the Don't side requires a bigger bankroll Making the Free Odds bet on the Don't side means you have to lay odds.

Casinos can be intimidating and their games a little confusing, but here's a tip: The best bet on the craps table has no house edge, and it isn't shown anywhere on the layout. There's no mention of 'odds' on the table. You must have a Pass or Don't Pass bet to take odds on, but then you're on your own. If you don't know about odds, you'll miss the best bet in the casino.

This player has a Don't Pass bet with odds and a Don't Come bet and is laying odds on against the point of 4 and 8. If 4 rolls, he loses his bet on the 4. If the 8 rolls, he loses his bet on the 8. If 7 rolls, he wins both bets. The vast majority of players are pass line, or ‘right side' bettors.

I often read a simple don't pass odds betting system can lead to small fortunes within the casino. 6 & 8 No odds, only don't pass wager. 5 & 9 x1 4 & 10 x2 Casino says 5 & 9: 3 - 2 4 & 10: 2 - 1 I am a strict $5 DP bettor. In this example, assume the point is either 6 or 8. With your $5 Don't Pass Flat bet, you lay 4x Odds for $24. For a Don't Pass Odds bet, you lay the bigger amount to win the smaller amount. Www aristocrat com. In this example, you lay $24 to win $20 (i.e., the true odds of 6:5 with 4x odds.

If you know how to play craps, you know that new shooters have to place a wager on the Pass or Don't Pass line. Once that new point of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 is made, they can just keep shooting. The odds bet, the one that has zero house edge, isn't mandatory; it's optional.

The Pass Line always pays even money, but the real beauty of the Odds wager is that you are paid the true odds of the point rolling. To make the wager, simply place chips behind your original Pass Line bet on the craps layout. This wager can at least equal your Pass Line bet, so if you have an original wager of $10, put another $10 behind it to take odds. The amount you should wager depends on the point number.

If the point is 4, 5, 9, or 10, match your bet. If the point is 6 or 8, bet $6 in odds for every $5 you have on the Pass Line. When the shooter makes their point, you'll get a much bigger payoff.

Pass Line Odds Payoffs

If the point is:

  • 4 or 10, you are paid 2 to 1 on your Odds wager.
  • 5 or 9, you are paid 3 to 2 on your Odds wager.
  • 6 or 8. you are paid 6 to 5 on your Odds wager.

Most casinos allow you to take double odds on you Pass Line bet. That means if you put $5 on the Pass Line, you could make an odds bet of $10.

Don't Pass Odds Payouts

Your Pass Line bet has a house edge of 1.41 percent. The Odds bet has no house edge, so by taking it you lower the house edge on your overall wagers. A Pass Line bet with single odds has a house edge of 0.85 percent and with double odds, the house edge drops to 0.61 percent.

Over the last few years, many casinos have allowed players to take larger odds bets. Some casinos compete with each other to see who can offer the highest odds, up to 100 times odds. Although this sounds great, it is impractical for average players to wager this much unless they have a very big bankroll.

3-4-5 Times Odds

To make things quick and easy for everyone, from the players to the dealers to the Box Men, many casinos have incorporated a simplified odds system in which they allow odds of only 3, 4, or 5 times a Pass Line wager. With this system, players are allowed to take three, four, or five times odds, depending on the point number. You can get odds on Come Bets too.

If the point is::

  • 4 or 10 you can take 3 times odds.
  • 5 or 9, you can take 4 times odds.
  • 6 or 8, you can take 5 times odds.

Craps Odds Bets

How much odds do you guys usually lay on a 4 or 10 as compared to the other points? When I play the don't pass I lay the least amount of odds on the 4 & 10. Some of my biggest losses were from putting a huge lay bet behind my don't pass only to have the shooter immediately roll the 4 or 10. I find that if you are playing the don't pass and they make a couple of 4's and 10's, it's very hard to come back from that since winning only pays you half. Now I know people are going to say 'according to Win Craps you should break even over the long run', now that's over the long run, I was on a table today where the shooter made the point of 4 3 times in a row but couldn't make the 6. In the short term I've been on tables where the 4 & 10 were made more often than the 7.
Now when playing the passline I'm sometimes afraid to put down a big odds bet on the 4 & 10 unless I'm way up. If I'm down a lot it's very difficult for me to justify putting a bet down that I have a 33.3% chance of winning, even though it's going to pay me double if it hits and over 1,000,000 rolls I will break even. If I'm down to my last $100 and the point is 4 or 10 and I'm on the passline I usually don't put anything down or like $5
How much do odds do you like to bet on 4 or 10's passline or don't pass players compared to what you would put down on a 5, 6, 8, or 9?

IF I'm on the pass line, then I'll typically bet 3/4/5x, or just 2/2/2x odds, depending on how much $$ I have. I don't bet based on how much in chips I have, because I typically have way more in my pocket than I do in chips.
On the don't pass, typically will lay max odds on 4/5/9/10 and typically won't lay any odds against 6/8. Sometimes I'll even over lay the 4/10.
Then again, I don't play craps much since there's no edge. Have yet to play craps with an edge, but the day I do, I'll play as long as the edge presents itself.

Lay max odds and pay no attention to you past luck with any points. To keep it sane, just don't keep betting the DC, have a stopping point so you don't have too much in action.
You know damn well the Wizard would be clucking at you for cutting back on the odds based on the past luck you had on the number.

Very good response.
I feel happier about some things, such as a DC bet that travels to the Four or Ten, but I neither increase nor decrease the money on it than if it had traveled to the SIX or the Eight.

How much do odds do you like to bet on 4 or 10's passline or don't pass players compared to what you would put down on a 5, 6, 8, or 9?


Playing pass line (and come) I typically bet single to double odds on 4,5,9,10 and double to triple odds on 6 and 8, depending on how I am doing. Sure sometimes the point hist when I under-bet it, and sometimes the 6 and 8 are wiped out by a 7-out in record time. And sometimes the reverse is true.
I've noticed that I need to be comfortable making a bet, or comfortable with the risk of making a baet, before I can make it habitually. For example, the good play is to let odds on come bets work on the come out roll. I know this, I even know why this is, and I rarely do it. Why? because I keep fretting about the big, bad seven which will eat my bets and not even spare the odds. The risk just seems too high and I'm uncomfortable with it.
It used to be that way with come bets at all, too, but I've gotten over it. What helped me was precise data on the risk vs reward I could expect, and practicing with Wincraps or other free craps games.

On a 3-4-5X table I will often play 3-4-3X odds.
On a $10 line wager, that's $36 on point of 6/8 and $60 on all other points.
I know that mathematically this is a worse bet than laying full odds on all points.
If I'm at a $5 table, I sometimes do the same thing - $18/30/30 but for some reason the lower the original wager the easier it is for me to lay max odds.
I know that this plan is not logical.
I rarely make any other bet - I tend to play strictly DP+odds.

Today I had $175 in green chips and I wanted another green chip and the point was 10 so I did something that I now regret. I laid two green chips behind my $30 don't pass bet (point was 10) and I also put a hard 10 down for $10. A 10 immediately rolls easy! I lost $100 on that bet! Since I had the hard 10 covered, only one combination could kill me and guess what it did! Earlier at the table 4 or 10 was the point like 5 times in a row and only once did the shooter not make it. You can preach to me about odds all you want, the risk of losing $50 is not worth the reward of winning $25. Of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Two combinations could kill you. 4-6 and 6-4.

There is one thing that you forget.. Its an oldie but goodie... Its called 'Sh*t Happens' LOL
One little suggestion I have for that might help in that situation is this.. If you are playing the DP and a player hits 2 points and knocks you off. Leave him alone and wait for the next shooter. There are more than enough shooters that will throw a seven for you that to get murdered on the one 'good roll'.
Another one is 'thou shall not Hedge'. If you are playing the DP and feel the need to cover your bet.. Your mind is telling you to take it down.. Most players get very nervous when there don't pass bet lingers for 9-13 rolls. But what you should realize is that the odds are in your favor, stay with it.. But if you see a guy who is repeating numbers, and you get knocked off, just wait for the next shooter. Its simple..
You may have loss that one result, but as you play more, that loss will be an after thought..

The difference between wanting and needing gets me many times.

Don T Pass Odds


Why do you $30 don't pass bet?
Odds

Is this your system of play always?
That can not be the table minimum. just my opinion.
At $10 don't pass bet and always lay 2x odds ($40,$30 and $24) one would still have an average bet of $30
and would easily lose less over time verses always betting $30. not just my opinion.

Don't Pass Odds Bet


Sure the comps would be way less than betting $30 dpass every come out roll
but I have a feeling they could overcome an actual session loss.
Here is an example of this over the Zumma actual casino dice rolls
s1 = $10 don't pass bet and always lay 2x odds
s2 = $30 don't pass bet
They were offered unlimited casino credit so they had no problem making every bet they wanted to make.
s1 had a session loss of $195 and was way way down at one point
Looks like the comps at cash back ($435) gave s1 a session win.

Don't Pass Odds Bet Craps

s2 lost way more and was even way down at one point.
comps were way higher than s1 as it should be but not enough cash back to erase the session loss.
That had to be paid (the large loss) and not much of a sugar sugar taste from that.
of course, no don't pass player would ever just make bets without ever laying the odds in my opinion. I know I am wrong thinking that way.

Don T Pass Odds Payout

at least we would hope not
my opinion, I would rather like being in s1 shoes than s2 shoes
more fun pulling out a win from cash back with comps when more of your money is on the odds bets
this was fun
