Follow the basic strategy outlined below; it’s easy to remember and to implement. Get ready to boost your bankroll and your craps skills with these 5 easy-to-master tips.
1. Don’t Pass and Don’t Come With Odds
The rule of thumb is as follows: Put the smallest amount on the Don’t Pass or the Don’t Come lines and wager the largest amount behind them. The house edge is on the Don’t Pass/Don’t Come bets, which only pay out 1:1 if you win. But the player has the advantage on the Free Odds bets (those behind the don’t pass/don’t come line), which pay out at the actual mathematical odds. This means if you play it right, the house has no advantage at all.
Free Odds bets are the only bets in the casino where the house has no advantage. It’s important to bet in the right increments, because most casinos won’t pay out in fractional dollars. For example: Free Odds payouts on 6 and 8 are at a 6:5 ratio (i.e. bet $5 get paid $6), so bet in increments of $5. Free Odds payouts on 5 and 9 are at a 3:2 ratio, so bet in increments of $2. Free Odds payouts on 4 and 10 are 2:1, so bet in whatever increments you like.
2. Place the 6 or 8 Bet to Win
Instead of waiting for the shooter to establish a point, pick your own numbers: 6 or 8. When you’re playing in multiples of $6.00 (or the currency of your choice), place the 6 or 8 place-to-win bet. The 1.52% house edge makes this bet a popular choice. The winning bets are paid at 7:6 odds, which means that you’ll be paid out $7 when you bet $6 and the number hits.
The 6 and 8 are the most frequently rolled numbers other than 7. Stay away from other place bets because the house edge is higher: 4% on 5 or 9 and 6.67% on 4 or 10.
3. Place the 6 or 8 Bet to Lose
This tip is the opposite of the previous tip. You’re betting on the shooter to lose, which might make you ‘unpopular’ at a table cheering on the shooter. But you’re not gambling for them; you’re playing the odds. Place a $5 bet on the table and announce “6 (or 8) to lose.” If the 7 shows (which is a very high frequency number) then you win $4.00 as the house edge is only 1.82%. Remember, there are 11 numbers that can be rolled with a pair of dice and some numbers are much easier to roll (come up more frequently) than others. Check out the list below of numbers and the ways to roll them:
2 – one way – 1-1
3 – two ways – 1-2, 2-1
4 – three ways – 1-3, 2-2, 3-1
5 – four ways – 1-4, 2-3, 3-2, 4-1
6 – five ways – 1-5, 2-4, 3-3, 4-2, 5-1
7 – six ways – 1-6, 2-5, 3-4, 4-3, 5-2, 6-1
8 – five ways – 2-6, 3-5, 4-4, 5-3, 6-2
9 – four ways – 3-6, 4-5, 5-4, 6-3
10 – three ways – 4-6, 5-5, 6-4
11 – two ways – 5-6, 6-5
2 – one way – 6-6
4. Lay against the 4 or 10
This tip is similar to the place the 6 or 8 to lose but the payouts are much higher as, while there are six ways to roll a 7, there are only three ways to roll a 4 or a 10 as opposed to five ways to roll a 6 or 8. In this case you take the more “optimistic” approach and place $20 on the table and say “Lay against the 4 (or 10).” If you win, you get back $40!
You must pay the house a 5% commission to make lay bets, but they pay out at true odds. Also, you’re betting against the shooter, so try not to gloat if you win large amounts betting against them. And if you’re playing craps online, you’re not offending anyone.
5. Place the 5 or 9 to Lose
In this bet, you put down $8.00 (remember you have to bet in increments of $2 as the odds are 3:2, meaning for every $2 you bet you get $3 if you win) and bet that the numbers above will lose. Why? The house edge on this type of bet is low – only 2.5% so when the 7 shows (again, that happens often), you’ll win $5.00.
In addition to these tips, always remember that craps is a negative expectation game, so the longer you play, the higher the chances you have of losing. But this is how casinos stay in business, and how the house edges make or break bettors who don’t make smart bets—or know when to walk away.
These are 5 of the most effective bets to make on craps to win. By reducing the house odds you are increasing your own chances of winning big when the table is hot. Try this for yourself at Slots of Vegas Craps Table today and walk away a winner!

This article will tell you how to play craps and even provide some betting jargon to play better. Interestingly, craps has been popular since the Middle Age. So, this is your chance to try this game out online.
It is also interesting to note that offline craps is more popular than the online one. Very often, players are intimidated by numbers and bets that they turn away from the craps table.
How to Play Craps Online: Rules and Bets!
First of all, let us get it cleared that playing craps is easy. And without getting into elaborate details, let us dive into the main mumbo-jumbo of craps.
1. The game of craps begins with a come-out roll.
Now you might wonder what a come-out roll is. The first dice roll and the first dice roll after every betting round are called a come-out roll. And the dice thrower is called the shooter. So, the shooter throws dice on the craps table.
The dice throw has three possible outcomes –
- When you throw a natural, it means the outcome is 7 or 11. If you manage to roll these digits, you win and get to throw the dice again.
- If you roll a 2 (snake eyes), 3, or 12, you lose. The round does not end here, and you can roll again.
- And when you roll anything from 4 to 10 (except 7), they are called points.
2. Your rolled numbers are marked on the table.
When you are at an offline casino, you will notice that the dealer marks the “point” number. Meanwhile, in online craps, there is a button that pops up when the point is established. Now, you need to roll the dice again and pray that the same number appears again. It does not necessarily have to be the same combination, just the same sum, and you win!
3. Okay, but what happens when I roll a seven?
When you manage to roll a 7, you are ‘seven out.’ Which means you lost and ended the betting round. So, pray that you do not roll a 7!
4. The betting rules.
And now, let us have a peek at the betting rules. If you take a close look at the craps table, you will notice that it is not just numbers and a pair of dice. We will discuss all the bets here, which will give you a better understanding of how to play craps.
- Pass or Don’t Pass Bets
You can go for ‘pass line’ or ‘don’t pass line.’ The pass line means that the shooter will win if a natural is rolled or grab the point before being sevened out.
The don’t pass bet is exactly the opposite. It implies that you bet that the shooter will not lose. This is possible when a player shoots and gets 2 or 3 or does not get the point before seven turns up.
And if someone manages to roll a 12, your bet is called ‘push.’ Here, nothing happens. You do not win, and neither do you lose.
You can place this bet only before a point has been made on the table. After a point is established, and the shooter has to roll that exact sum again, you place a ‘come’ or ‘don’t come’ bet.
- Come or Don’t Come Bets.
How To Win At Craps
If a ‘natural’ shows up, the come bet wins, and a come-bet point is counted when a point is rolled. Meanwhile, the come-bet loses if craps are rolled. These bets work exactly like the pass and don’t pass bets. And 12 is a push here too.
Playing Craps To Win
The pass and come bets are basic, and hence, they cannot be turned off. You bet and watch after you have placed these bets. However, you can make some additional bets on the come-bet point. These are the bets that you can withhold or augment at any time.
- Proposition Bets in Craps
The proposition bets are one-roll bets, and you can place them on any rolls. But there are some exceptions. Let us first have a look at the proposition bets.
How To Always Win At Craps
- Any seven – The bet wins if the shooter throws a dice that sums up 7.
- Any Craps – if the shooter’s dice sums 2, 3, or 12, any craps bet wins.
- Ace Deuce – when the shooter rolls a 3, your ace deuce bet was successful.
- Aces – aces wins if the shooter rolls a 2.
- Boxcars – place the boxcars bet and pray that the shooter rolls a 3.
- Horn – and if the shooter rolls out 2, 3, 11, or 12, the horn bet wins.
However, there are some exceptions to these bets, and those are called ‘hard ways.’ In this situation, if you roll a 4, 6, 8, or 10 (depending upon which number you chose for betting) with the pair of similar numbers (like 3 and 3 or 4 and 4) before some other combination sums up to make 7.
- Other Possible Bets in Craps
- Place bet is placed when you the point. So, here you can set the bet on any number. Of course, if it is rolled, you win!
- A field bet is a bet that is activated for a single dice roll. If 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12 show up, you win. However, if 5, 6, 7, or 8 turns up, you lose.
- Big 6 and Big 8 bet are made if you believe that a 6 or 8 will be rolled before a seven shows up.
So, this was our quick guide on how to play craps. Remember, practicing will make it easier to play craps. Luckily, some online casinos offer free craps for practice. It is always a good practice to check the betting requirements and paytable before putting real money on the stake!
