Think about it. When you toss a coin fairly you will get an even number of heads and tails in the long run. Every now and then you will get a run of four or five heads or tails, just by chance. After all, every time you toss there is a 50:50 chance of a head or tail coming down – and this doesn’t change depending on what the tosses before have been. If runs of 4 or 5 heads happen, it means that runs of 10 or even 20 can and will happen. Not very often at all, but they will happen. winning and losing streaks are what you can expect occasionally, just by chance. They do not need to be explained by ESP, magic or superior betting skill.

Don't Come Bets - Your wager is placed in the "Don't Come" area of the craps table. The reverse of "Come Bets," you lose on the 7 or 11 role. 2 or 3 are winners and 12, once again, is a "Standoff" or "Push" meaning no money is won or lost. If a "Point" number is rolled, you win if a 7 is rolled in subsequent roles before the "Come-Point" is rolled again. Field Bets - This is a "One Role" bet. Your wager is placed in the "Field" area of the craps table. You win even money or 1:1 odds if the role shows a 3,4,9,10,11. Rolling a 2 or 12 pays 2:1. Rolling a 5, 6, 7 or 8 loses the bet.

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.
