Many players who make pass line bets can't afford to take any odds or full odds behind the bet once the number is established. You can place the odds if the person allows you. The casino has no edge on the odds and in the long run your expectation is to break even. That could be a lot of casino fun with no expected cost! One caveat: Make sure the person behind whose bet you're taking odds fully understands what it is you are doing. You don't want to win a bet only to have the man or woman scoop it up and keep it.

The player who's current go it is, is called the shooter. The shooter wins if he rolls a 7 or 11 and this is entitled 'Natural' and he loses if he rolls a 2, 3 or a 12. This is known as 'craps' and it is where the name gets its name from. Rolling any of the remaining numbers (4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10) is known as the 'point'. If the shooter achieves point on his first roll, he must roll again, if he achieves point again, then rolls again and rolls a 7 then he wins. If a 7 is rolled after the first point then the shooter loses and the dice are passed on to the next person. The next person will then become the shooter.

Button Descriptions Roll: Clicking on the Roll button after placing a bet starts a new round. Repeat: Clicking on the Repeat button will repeat all the bets made on the previous round that can be validly placed now.

Exceptions would be the pass and come bets, and you cannot exceed the maximum bet on the odds. Table Min/Max: Look here to find the minimum and maximum total of the bets allowed. Bet Regions: When moving the cursor over the bet regions a yellow “tag” will appear that gives the name of the bet, the current amount placed for that bet, and the minimum and maximum amounts that can be placed on that bet. If a green highlight appears in a region, that indicates this bet can be added to (changed) If a red highlight appears, this bet cannot be increased (but sometimes can be removed)

the first roll of the dice in a betting round is called the "come out" roll. Pass bets win when the come out roll is 7 or 11, while pass bets lose when the come out roll is 2, 3, or 12. Don't bets lose when the come out roll is 7 or 11, and don't bets win when the come out roll is 2 or 3. Don't bets tie when the come out roll is 12 (2 in some casinos; the "bar" roll on the layout indicates which roll is treated as a tie)

You must set goals for both winning and losing. Once your goals are met you must condition yourself to walk away. Trust me on this one; you will never be completely satisfied with your winnings. in winning a little is a much better feeling than losing any amount. Learn to walk-away and remember the casinos will be there whenever you decide to return.
