Here's a good craps method

With this betting method you will win on EVERY roll but seven

Place bet the 5 , 6, 8

Place 50% of your 5,6 or 8 bet on the field

Example you have $10 on the 5, $12 on the 6 and $12 on the 8
Place $6 on the field.

You win a minimum of $6 bucks in EVERY number rolled but a 7

You have 2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,11,12 covered with 4 bets

If 5,6,8 roll then you lose your field but get $15 for the number hitting, you take $6 from the $15 and replace your field bet

if the field hits 2,3,4,9,10,11, 12 then your field bets stay up and you get paid 6 bucks from the field line , double if the 2 or 12 hits.

Don't forget the hoppin bets

One rolls bets paying fat odds

Personally I love to throw down 2 dollar high lows, one roll bet pays 30-1 if a 2 or 12 hits

Feeling lucky how many times has 12 or 2 rolled rolled back to back ? Well turn 2 dollars into 450 in 2 rolls

Example

1 buck on the 2 and 12
12 hits you get $30
Split the 30 putting 15 on the 2 and 15 on 12
Either 2 or 12 hit again your paid

$15x30=$ 450

Bada boom bada bing

Just if it doesn't hit for the second time look at it as only losing 2 bucks instead of taking your 30 or else you will regret not taking the first payoff

Nice! Craps is a blast especially if your on a hot roll! I like to throw a few bucks on the hard ways, usually like 20% of your bet.

I never learned craps...

This all sounds like another language to me.

[Cisco419]

I was the same way until I learned it. Once you learn it you love it!

Do you learn by playing?

I tried reading up on it, but didn't really get it...

I want to learn as well... I need to roll with someone who knows how to play.

I found that you can get a hang of the basics by reading up on it, but people are usually pretty cool about helping you out at the table if you ask questions, at least the lower-limit tables.

[Cisco419]

The best place to learn is on freemont street cause it's way lower limits and they'll help you out.

definitely agree playing is the best way but i always re read on the rules/strategy on the plane ride over

pgs 124 - 141. seems like alot but craps is one of the best odds in the casino so its worth reading up...

my favorite bet is the 4 dollar horn (its just fun to say)

Craps is my favorite game in the casino. Its lively, its fun, especially if the table is HOT. You just have a ton of fun and iRock that sounds like an interesting strategy. Ill try it when im out there this weekend.

You need to play to learn. Reading only gets you so far but go to a table and just play a bit and ask questions. Or at least watch a cold table for a bit while only 1 or 2 people are there and you will learn how things go just by watching the dice and the chips.

I like the Horn High Yo. $5 bet that gets you all 4 horn bets with the extra dollar on the Yo.

Craps is so much fun. I was on a great roll last July (esp after playing with IRock! he really does know how to play!). People are pretty friendly ive found to help you out in the extra bets.

I say if you are a newbie just play 6 and 8 and then figure out what you want to do once you get it down a little more.

I found NYNY actually a fun place to play since it was lower bets. Will never play at IP or Excalibur...I hated it and no one could throw the dice. It killed me.

Roulette @ Excalibur treated me well.
