- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Las Vegas Craps - Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- Las Vegas Craps is an authentic rendition of a Las Vegas style craps game.
- While the primary purpose of this game is entertainment, it also provides
- helpful assistance and recommended strategies.
-
- Craps is the most exciting of all casino games. It offers the player the
- opportunity to win, or lose, large sums of money very quickly. There are over
- twenty different bets available in the game of craps. The craps table is
- divided into three distinct sections. The two end sections are where the
- majority of the bets are made. The middle area, contains bets known as
- proposition, or center, bets.
-
- Craps is played by betting on the outcome of the rolling of two dice. In order
- to properly understand and participate in the game of craps, it is important to
- know the possible outcomes when two dice are thrown. There are eleven possible
- outcomes in a roll of two dice (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12).
- Certain numbers are more likely to be rolled than others. The chances of
- rolling a particular number are as follows:

- Notice that the seven is the most common roll of all the possible rolls.
- Notice, also, that there is a symmetry of combinations on either side of the
- seven (ie. the six and eight have the same odds, as do the four and ten). The
- further a number is from seven, the less likely it will be rolled. Based on
- these chances of a number being rolled, the following odds can be derived:

- The casinos use these odds to their advantage in the game of craps. When a bet
- is won, it is typically paid off at an amount that is less than the true odds
- of winning the bet. All of the bets in the game favor the casino, or house.
- Some bets favor the house more than others. The key to winning at the game of
- craps is to play the bets that offer the lowest house advantage.
-
- Extensive help is available for every menu item and dialog box in the game. The
- help information for each bet will contain the rules for that bet as well as
- some recommended betting strategies. All you need to do is select the
- particular item that you want help for and press the F1 key.

- ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 48.1. Pass Line Rules - Help ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
-
- The Pass Line bet is one of four bets known as line bets. The object of the
- Pass Line bet changes after the first roll of the dice. The first roll of the
- dice, after placing this bet, is referred to as the come out roll. The object
- of the Pass Line bet, on the come out roll, is to roll a seven or an eleven.
- If you roll a seven or eleven, you win. If you roll a two, three, or twelve,
- you lose. If any other number is rolled, that number becomes the point number.
- A place marker will then be placed, on the table, over the number that
- corresponds to the point number.
-
- Once a point number is established, the object of the Pass Line bet is to roll
- the point number before rolling a seven. If you roll the point number first,
- you win. If you roll a seven first, you lose. If any other number is rolled,
- it has no effect on this bet.
-
- Place
- This bet can only be made before a point number is established. You must
- have enough money in your bank to place the minimum bet. The minimum bet is
- set in the Settings dialog.
-
- Change/Remove
- This bet may be changed or removed anytime before the point number is
- established. Once the point number has been established, the original bet
- can no longer be changed or removed. Once the point number has been
- established, a Pass Line bet can be enhanced with an odds bet. The odds bet
- is really a separate bet and it can be changed or removed at any time. Odds
- can only be placed after the point number is established.
-

-
- Recommendation
- The house has a 1.4% advantage on a Pass Line bet with no odds. This is one
- of the lowest house advantages in the game. Because the house has no
- advantage at all on the odds bet, if you back the Pass Line bet with odds,
- the house advantage on the total bet drops to 0.8% with single odds and
- further to 0.6% when playing double odds. As you can see, the house
- advantage drops significantly when playing odds. Also, the more odds that
- are taken, the lower the house advantage drops. Therefore, when playing the
- Pass Line, always bet the maximum allowable odds. When betting a sum of
- money on the Pass Line, always put as much of that sum as possible on the
- odds. Line bets backed by odds are the best bets in the game.

-
- The Don't Pass bet is one of four bets known as line bets. The object of the
- Don't Pass bet changes after the first roll of the dice. The first roll of the
- dice, after placing this bet, is referred to as the come out roll. The object
- of the Don't Pass bet, on the come out roll, is to roll a two or a three. If
- you roll a two or three, you win. If you roll a seven or eleven, you lose. A
- roll of twelve is considered a standoff, or push. If any other number is
- rolled, that number becomes the point number. A place marker will then be
- placed, on the table, over the number that corresponds to the point number.
-
- Once a point number is established, the object of the Don't Pass bet is to roll
- a seven before rolling the point number. If you roll a seven first, you win.
- If you roll the point number first, you lose. If any other number is rolled,
- it has no effect on this bet.

- This bet can only be made before a point number is established. You must

-
- A Free Odds bet, or just Odds bet, is an extension to the line bets. This bet
- must always back an existing line bet. An Odds bet can be placed for every
- existing line bet. While the Free Odds bet looks like a way to simply increase
- your line bet, it is much more than that. The Free Odds bet is paid of at the
- true odds. Thus, the house gets no advantage on this bet. The Free Odds bet
- serves to lower the overall house advantage on the line bets.
-
- The amount you are allowed to bet on a Free Odds bet is usually limited to some
- multiple of the line bet that it backs. The most common multiples are single
- odds and double odds. In a single odds game, the Free Odds bet can only be as
- large as the line bet that it backs. When playing double odds, the Free Odds
- bet can be up to two times the line bet. The odds multiple can be set in the
- Settings dialog.
-
- Place
- This bet can only be made as a backing bet to one of the line bets.

- corresponding point number must be established. You must have enough money
- in your bank to place the minimum bet. The minimum bet is set in the

-
- Note: The odds of winning and the payoff are identical on the Free Odds bet.
-
- Recommendation
- The house has no advantage at all on a Free Odds bet. This makes the Free
- Odds bet the best bet in the game. The overall house advantage for line bets
- decreases as more money is bet on the Free Odds backing the line bet. For
- this reason, line bets should always be backed with the maximum allowable
- Free Odds bet.
