To the uninitiated, the craps table is easily the most intimidating spot on the casino floor.
However, beneath the shouting and flying dice lies one of the most exciting games available.
Understanding the Pass Line Bet
The core of craps revolves almost entirely around the fundamental Pass Line bet.
If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, your Pass Line bet wins immediately.

What Happens After the Point is Set?
Once the Point is set, the objective of the game completely changes for the shooter.
If the shooter successfully hits the Point before a 7, your Pass Line bet wins.
The Best Bet in the Casino
The Odds bet is incredibly special because the casino holds absolutely zero mathematical edge on it.
Always maximize your Odds bet up to the table limit to reduce the overall house edge.
