How to Win in craps

Craps is a dice game. Thus luck is really important. No technique affects the result of the throw. However there are few methods to improve your game. In this article we will have a look at the several strategies of craps.

Manage your budget

Casinos recommend you should set winnings, loss and time limit in order to manage your budget properly. This is also important in craps. In fact, set aside a bank roll, the money you will use to play. Choose an amount that you are willing to lose otherwise you will regret it. In addition, set winnings limit. This prevents you from playing for a long time until you are exhausted and make silly mistakes. Sometimes you will have consecutive rounds where you win and lose if you still haven’t reached your winnings and loss limit that is why a time limit is very important. You know exactly when to leave the casino. These limits prevent you from going over board. However you should also respect these limits.

The most interesting bets

In craps, the bets do not have the same house advantage. It better to choose bets with the highest payment rate; the most significant are pass line, don’t pass line. They have the lowest house advantage from 1, 41% to less than 1, 40 %. These line bets are often used by winners. The other bets are not interesting, they have the highest casino advantage “field”, big 6 or big 8 (9,1%), horn (12,5%) craps 2 or any 12s (13,9%) and 7s (16,7%). Come, don’t come bet have the same player repayment rate to pass and don’t pass bet.

The odd bets

It is possible to decrease the house advantage on these bets. By using the odd bets. Thus buy t odd bets when you make a pass bet and spread them when you bet on don’t pass. The odd bet is placed in addition to your chips, after the come out roll. The casino does not take anything on odd; they actually improve your bets. However this is not written in an online casino and brick mortar gambling institution because the casinos prefer fewer players to use this option. This should not prevent you from using them. The simple odd decreases the house advantage by half or even more. In Las Vegas you use the odd bet which means you can only add the same amount to your come out bet. However on the internet, you usually use the double bets this reduces the house advantage by 0, 6%.

Buy the odds

When you bet on pass, buy the odds. Your winnings depend on the point. Imagine you bet 5$, this is what you might win:[table][tr][td colspan="3"]Buy double odds ($10) [/td][/tr][tr][td]Points[/td][td]Payments[/td][td]Winnings (won)[/td][/tr][tr][td]4 or 10[/td][td]2-1[/td][td]$30 ($20)[/td][/tr][tr][td]5 or 9[/td][td]3-2[/td][td]$25 ($15)[/td][/tr][tr][td]6 or 8[/td][td]6-5[/td][td]$22 ($12)[/td][/tr][/table]

The table represents only when you can win with odds, not all possibilities. Thus with a pass bet you win 5$ when the come out is 10, you win 40$ or 5$ with 5$ of winnings. Your odds of 10$ with winnings of 20$.

Place your odds

In the same way when you bet on don’t pass, place your odds. Your winnings will depend on the point. Imagine you bet $5, this is what you might win:[table][tr][td colspan="3"]Place your odds ($10)[/td][/tr][tr][td]Points[/td][td]Payments[/td][td]Winnings (won)[/td][/tr][tr][td]4 or 10[/td][td]1-2[/td][td]$15 ($5)[/td][/tr][tr][td]5 or 9[/td][td]2-3[/td][td]$16 ($6)[/td][/tr][tr][td]6 or 8[/td][td]5-6[/td][td]$18 ($8)[/td][/tr][/table]

If you win your pass bet at $5 when the come out is 10, you win $25or $5of the bet with $5 winnings, plus you odd bet of $10 with $5 winnings.

Bet a multiple of 6 or 5 depending on the situation

The majority of casinos do not pay winnings below $ 1. Thus, you will lose a small percentage of your earnings when they have a comma. The odds that win are 2 to 3 or 5 to 6, so you do lose a little money if you use multiple bet of 10 because this number is not divisible by 3 or 6. With a 5 or 9, you lose $ 0.67, with a 6 or 8, $ 0.33.To avoid these unnecessary losses, it is better to bet multiples of 6 that are divisible by 3 and 6. Thus, you can win:[table][tr][td colspan="3"]Place double odds ($12) [/td][/tr][tr][td]Points[/td][td]Payments[/td][td]Winnings (won)[/td][/tr][tr][td]4 or 10[/td][td]1-2[/td][td]$18 ($6)[/td][/tr][tr][td]5 or 9[/td][td]2-3[/td][td]$20 ($8)[/td][/tr][tr][td]6 or 8[/td][td]5-6[/td][td]$22 ($10)[/td][/tr][/table]

However when you buy odds. Bet multiples of5, this number is divisible by 1, 2 and 5.
