To the uninitiated, the craps table is easily the most intimidating spot on the casino floor.
Once you understand the basic mechanics, it quickly becomes the most thrilling game in the house.
Understanding the Pass Line Bet
The Pass Line bet is the foundation upon which the entire game of craps is built.
Conversely, if the dice show a 2, 3, or 12, the bet loses instantly, which is called "crapping out."

Establishing and Hitting the Point
When a Point is established, the dealer places a plastic puck on that specific number.
If a 7 is rolled before the Point, the bet loses, and the round is completely over.
Taking Odds Behind the Line
The Odds bet is incredibly special because the casino holds absolutely zero mathematical edge on it.
Because it pays true mathematical odds, it is the only bet in the casino without a house advantage.
