The six rolls while the bet is in action, and the $6 place bet wins $7. You say 'press the six and eight' and GIVE THE DEALER $5. The dealer will take the new $5 injected into the system and put it with the $7 payoff, which equals $12. This will become the new $12 bet on the six.
How to Win at Craps Tips
How To Win At Craps Begins With The Craps Player
- The most common bets in craps are the pass line bet and the come bet. These are the most basics bets in the game—bets that the shooter will succeed. In the long run, over 495 “rounds,” the casino will win either of those bets on average 251 times. The player will only win an average of 244 of those bets.
- Just place the chips on any of the point numbers (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10). One of these numbers needs to be rolled before a 7 for the bet to be successful. Field bets allow you to bet on any number you think will come next, regardless of it passing or not passing. The available numbers are 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, and 12.

To me how to win at craps is the most interesting topic when it comes to casino games. You will see a cross-section of every type of player who comes to town. I am the last of the big spenders. Each time I go play craps, I set a daily limit as to how much I am going to allow myself to lose. This is usually $100 or $200 a day.
Now you are probably thinking, “If this guy knows how to win, why is he talking about a limit to lose?”. Well, let me tell you, the dice are fickle. That’s one thing I depend on. I know that at certain times, there are going to be a string of triumphs for me. BUT, I also know that they won’t come every hour on the hour, you can’t expect to win every day. While I’m waiting to win, I am not going to pour my money down a rat hole so deep that I can never dig out.
Why casinos win craps players money
That’s why the casinos win all that money. At times, when people just can’t win at this game, they don’t have enough sense to quit for a while. They KNOW their luck is going to change. They keep betting and losing until they are in so deep over their financial heads that there is NO WAY for them to even get back to even, much less win.
The other reason casinos win all that money, is players will not quit when they win and are ahead!!! People keep betting when the dice are “bad”. People keep betting when the dice are “Hot”. If you are hoping to be a winner at craps, you have to know when to quit.
Set a loss limit
Years and years ago, I set the rule for myself, “Never bet unless you can afford to lose”. I figure that, realistically, I can afford to lose no more than $100 (sometimes $200) a day. If I don’t win at craps and I do lose my limit, I have enough sense to wait until tomorrow. I, and you too, have seen people gamble until they lose everything they have. Why be so stupid? If the dice are running bad, and BELIEVE ME, they will run bad at times, if I just play to my daily limit, I don’t have to win so much back when the dice start rolling my way.
I’m not telling you to limit your win at craps stake to $100 or $200 per day. Your finances might be a lot better, and your tolerance for loss, a lot higher than mine. If so, feel safe to set your limit at any amount you’re comfortable with.
One time I was in Vegas, I had an old fellow next to me who “bought in” for $5,000 in chips. Man! Did he make me look like a piker. But, a few minutes later, when he bought $2,000 more chips, then a little later bought another $1,000, there was no doubt in my mind that I was having a lot more fun than that “high roller”.
It’s much easier to claw back smaller losses
