If any other number rolls you lose. This bet is placed in the area marked "Field" on the layout. Unless other Proposition bets, you have to wager the equivalent to a Pass or Don't line bet. For example, if the minimum Pass line bet is $5.00, you must wager at least this amount for a Field bet.

Some gamblers believe that you can recover your losses by doubling your bet every time you lose. This is known as the Martingale system. The idea is that when you win, the win will be big enough to cover your previous losses. There are two problems with this system: You may run out of money before you win. You can only double your bet so many times because of table limits, and so occasionally you will hit the table limit before winning – and this will be very expensive.
