Here’s a recap of some of our favorite bets to get you started: Pass Bets: paying 1/1 with just a 1.41% house edge, this is a staple of all good craps strategies. Place Bet: 6 or 8, paying just over 1/1 at 7/6. The house edge is just 1.52%. Pass Line: 4 or 10, pays 2/1 with a house edge of 4.76%. The rules of craps are relatively simple; players bet or wager on the outcome of the combined number two dice will land on when rolled. Each person has the option to throw the dice until they lose. The players’ turns move clockwise around the craps table. A player can decide to pass the dice if they do not want to throw (shoot). This is one of the more complicated and interesting bets in craps. First I will start off talking about the buy bet. Basically, players can make a bet on the established point numbers at any time. Players will win if the shooter rolls the point number before the seven. The Lay Bet in Craps T he Lay bet is basically opposite of the Buy bet. You bet that a 7 will appear before one of the point numbers (i.e., 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10). For example, suppose you notice a temporary trend where the number 5 hasn’t appeared in the last 30 minutes.

Types of Craps Bets

The horn bet is actually a combination of different bets. In fact, a player who is betting on the horn is wagering that the shooter will roll a 2, 3, 11 or 12. These are the hardest and infrequent numbers to roll in craps. Basically, you will win the bet if the dice lands on any of these four numbers. This is actually a popular bet that is included as part of the proposition bets. Essentially, this bet includes snake eyes, boxcars, yo and ace-deuce.

The actual odds of winning the horn bet are 5:1. The payout odds are a little more complicated though. Typically, the house pays 27:4 if the shooter rolls a 2 or 12, and the house pays 3:1 odds if a 3 or 11 is rolled. This shows that the odds are slightly different than if you wagered on these other bets individually. In the end, the overall house edge is 12.5%, which is not spectacular at all to begin with, even though this sounds like a special arcane bet.

I tried to display a screenshot to explain where to place this bet on the table. Unfortunately, not all casinos will have this bet displayed, including this one. I put $88 worth of chips on each of the numbers involved in this bet. In a casino where this is displayed on the table, you would see a spot that says 'Horn' in the intersection corner of all four of these spots that I have chips on. Then you should just put $88 on that spot. If you are playing at a land based casino and the 'Horn' area is not indicated on the table, you can usually tell the dealer that you would like to make a horn bet and they will put your chips in the intersection of these four areas right in the middle.
