Don’t Pass Betting in Craps
Summary:
Don't pass betting in craps is one of the lesser-known strategies in casinos, primarily because it contradicts the majority of the table. Most players bet on the shooter making points, and those who bet against this can be unpopular. Additionally, the odds for don’t pass bets require more money than pass bets.
Understanding Don't Pass Betting:
In the world of craps, don’t pass betting is relatively unpopular. The main reason is that it goes against the prevailing sentiment at the table, where most players bet in favor of the shooter achieving points. As a result, don’t pass bettors can find themselves at odds with the crowd.
Moreover, the financial dynamics of don’t pass bets deter many players. The odds require a larger upfront investment compared to pass bets, which can make it less appealing.
The Odds and House Edge:
Craps can offer some of the best odds for players who bet strategically. The house edge on don’t pass bets is slightly more favorable than on pass bets?"1.402% compared to 1.414%. Although this difference seems minor, it can be significant over time. To truly minimize the edge, players must effectively manage their odds, which is often challenging for don’t pass bettors.
An Example Scenario:
Consider when the point is ten. Pass line bettors can take odds and receive a 2-to-1 payout if the ten is rolled again before a seven. In contrast, don’t pass bettors must wager more upfront, receiving only half their stake if a seven appears first. For instance, placing a $10 bet on the pass line can win $20, whereas a don’t pass bettor needs to wager $20 to win $10 under the opposite outcome.
This requirement to risk more for a smaller reward discourages many from choosing the don’t side. However, during a cold streak at the table, betting don’t pass can offer better odds and reduce the house advantage.
Conclusion:
Expert craps players aim to align with table trends, which can inform whether to take or lay odds. While don’t pass betting is less conventional, understanding its mechanics can offer strategic advantages, especially when the table dynamics favor it.
