Because it’s all about the roll of the dice, a good or bad roll may assume either outcome.

There are several statistically proven ways of increasing the likelihood of making a smarter bet. These ways are listed below:

Bets to make:

  • Come Bet – The house edge is only 1.41%
  • Don’t Come Bet – The house edge is only 1.40%
  • Don’t Pass Bet – The house edge is only 1.40%
  • Pass Line Bet – The house edge is only 1.41%

Bets to avoid:

  • Hard Bets – House edge is 12.5%
  • The Field Bet – House edge is 5.6%
  • Craps 2 or Craps 12 – House edge is 13.9%
  • Any 7 is16.7%
  • Big 6 or Big 8: House edge is 9.1%

Minimizing the house edge is a goal to strive for. By placing odds bets you are wagering on your point from the ‘pass’ or ‘don’t pass’ bet. This also includes the ‘come’ or ‘don’t come’ bet.

You can effectively buy square on the point number. This can substantially lower the house edge. A big part of the winning strategy for online craps is being aware of what wagers to avoid because they offer low odds.
