Odds on a Line Bet.

marked "ON" shows that the point has been set and is located on the craps table over the box for the number rolled as the point: "4, 5, SIX, 8, NINE or 10,". The shooter will keep rolling the dice until he rolls the point or 7 to end the round. If the shooter rolls the point first, a pass line bet wins. If the shooter rolls a 7 first, called seven out, a pass line bet loses. Buy Bet Here you can guess that a certain number will be rolled before a 7. It's the same as a place bet but a Buy Bet pays true odds with a 5% charge with a win. Don't Come Bet Opposite of a 'Come Bet'. Odds are the same. Place Bet Here you can bet that a certain number will be rolled before a 7. The odds are 9:5 on a 4 and 10, 7:5 on a 5 and 9 and 7:6 on a 6 and 8 roll. Come Bet Is basically the same as the 'Pass Line Bet' but the bet is made after the shooter gets point. The shooters next roll then becomes this bets come out roll. This bet wins with 7 and 11 and loses with 2, 3 and 12. If another number is rolled then your counter is moved to the corresponding place (see number 10 on diagram) And for you to win a point must be regained before a 7 is rolled. The odds are 1:1. Field Bet Is where you bet if the outcome of the next roll will be a 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 or 12. Any other figures lose. 2:1 are the odds for 2 and 12, and the rest are 1:1. 6 & 8 You bet if a 6 or 8 will be rolled before the next 7. Odds are 1:1. Don't Pass Bet A simple bet, that the shooter does NOT win the game. The odds are 1:1. Pass Line Bet The simplest bet; you bet that the shooter wins the game. The odds are 1:1. Odds Bet This strengthens your 'Don't Pass Bet' or your 'Pass Line Bet' but this bet is made after point on the shooters come out roll. The odds are 2:1 for a 4 and 10, 3:" for a 5 and 9 roll and 6:5 for a 6 and 8 roll. Number 10 corresponds with information in the 'Come Bet'. The six and eight can each be made five ways. So if you are up on the don't six, you have six ways to win (on the number seven) and five ways to lose. When the bet is $10 you would win $60, lose $50, and be ahead by $10 after the 11 decisions (on average) If you see a don't player about to take his bet down just say to the fellow: "Don't! Here's 10 bucks, you're even!" He'll take the $10 because that's what his bet is. This is known as the cancellation system. Pick a series of numbers, say 1,2,3,4,5. Your first bet is the total of the two numbers on the end, or 6 units in this case. If you lose it, you cancel out the 1 and the 5, add the six to the end of the series and bet the 6 and the 2, for a total of eight units bet. Lose that one and you add the eight to the series, cancel the 2 and the six and bet a total of 11 (3+8) and so on. If you win, you proceed to the inside numbers until they are all cancelled out. Again, a loser, but an insidious one.
Craps is very easy to play. The current player rolls a seven and the game starts. After the current player rolls a seven a new player is given the dice. Before rolling the dice the new player has to make a bet. Players can make either a pass line or don’t pass line bet. Rolling the dice is called a ‘comeout roll’. If the total rolled is 7 or 11 it is called a ‘pass’. If the player makes a pass the pass line bets win and don’t pass lines lose. It is called ‘craps’ if the total rolled is 2,3,12. In the case of craps don’t pass line bets win, pass line bets lose. In Las Vegas 12 is not considered to be ‘craps’ and the same thing with 2 in Tahoe. If a 4,5,6,8,9,10 is rolled on the comeout that number is called a "place" number or a "point". In the case of a ‘point’ the shooter continues to roll until that "point" is rolled again, which is called "making the point". With "making the point" "pass line" bets win and "don't pass" bets lose. ’Sevening out’ is the same as rolling a 7. If a 7 is rolled before the second point number "pass line" bets lose and "don't pass" bets win. If a player sevens out, his turn is over and the whole process begins again with a new player. In the case of a “point” number players can choose one of the bets. You can make bets on each subsequent roll of the dice until a 7 is rolled. Hardway Bet is made by clicking on the corresponding area of the craps table. There are four kinds of Hardway Bets. Hardway bets are turned off by default during a come out roll. To force a bet on, hold down the shift key and click directly on the bet. If a pair is rolled before a 7 or any other combination of the Hardway number is rolled you win. If you have a hard 4 and 10 the payout is 7:1. If you have a hard 6 and 8 the payout is 9:1. The Buy Bet allows you to bet directly on a point-number without making a Pass Line or Come bet. Buy bets pay correct odds but you 5% will be taken out by the house. A buy bet wins if the number rolls before a 7. To make a Buy Bet you have to click on one of the numbers of the table. Buy bet is turned off by default during a come out roll. To force the bet on, hold down the shift key and click directly on the bet.

A Come Bet is made when the shooter is going to repeat the point number. Come bet can be made by clicking on the Come area of the table. If the shooter rolls a 7 or a 11 you win. If the shooter has craps you lose. If there is a point number the bet is moved from the come area to the point-box indicating the point-number that the shooter must roll for that bet to win. If the point-number is rolled before a 7, you win. If you win in Come Bet the payout is 1:1. Odds bet on the Come bet. If you make an odds bet on the come bet you bet that the shooter will repeat the point-number before rolling 7. If the point number is 4 or 10 the payout is 2:1. If the point number is 5 or 9 the payoff is 3:2. If the point number is 6 or 8 the payout is 6:5. Big 6 and Big 8 bets are like regular place bets. In the case of a win with Big 6 or 8 you get paid 1:1. Big 6 and Big 8 bets are turned off by default during a come out roll. To force the bet on, hold down the shift key and click directly on the bet.
