Craps Tips

There are ways in which you will be able to make a profit playing craps. These include the "good" and "bad" bets. What this basically means is that there are certain bets that would be beneficial for you to play instead of others. These consist of the following:

Good Bets:

• Pass Line Bet - The house edge is only 1.41%
• Don't Pass Bet - The house edge is only 1.40%
• Come Bet - The house edge is only 1.41%
• Don't Come Bet - The house edge is only 1.40%

Bad Bets:

• The Field Bet - House edge is 5.6%
• Big 6 or Big 8 - House edge is 9.1%
• Hard Bets - House edge is 12.5%
• Craps 2 or Craps 12 - House edge is 13.9%
• Any 7: 16.7%

As you can see the good bets only have a 1.405% average, whereas the bad bets have between 5.6% - 16.7%. That is why these bets are called bad bets. There is also a way to decrease the house edge even further. This is done by placing the "odds bet." The odds bet means that you are placing more money on your "point" from the pass/Don't pass bet or come/Don't come bet, also to place even more you can put money on the actual "point" to win the hand, and you can "buy" more odds by putting chips on the "buy" square on the point number. This actually lowers the house edge by up to 40% which means if the house edge was 1.4% it would now be around 0.6%. So as you can see by playing the good bets it is possible to make a very large profit playing craps, which is why Craps is so popular, especially online.
