Craps is a dice game in which the players make wagers on the outcome of the roll, or a series of rolls, of a pair of dice. Players may wager money against each other (playing 'street craps') or a bank (playing 'casino craps', also known as 'table craps', or often just 'craps').

The Low Roller Pass/Come Strategy is a spin off of the 3-Point Molly Strategy in that you establish 3 points in play for each roller. The Low Roller Strategy has its advantages and should be considered by those with limited bankrolls or for advanced players betting on random rollers.

In a nutshell, at a $10 table, you place a $10 Pass Line bet, followed by 2 consecutive $10 Come Bets until you have 3 points in action. You do not place any odds on either your Pass Line bet or your Come bets.

Right now the mathematicians are screaming that you need to place odds on your bets to lower the house edge, but lets take a look at how this works and the merit behind it for the right players and the right situation.

When the dice are passed to the next player at a $10 minimum table;

  • Place a $10 Pass Line Bet
    • If a (7) or (11) roll, you win $10; if a (2), (3) or (12) roll you lose
    • There are 8 ways to roll a (7) or (11) and only 4 ways to roll a (2), (3) or (12) so the odds are in your favor
    • When the point is established, do not add odds to your bet
  • Place a $10 Come Bet
    • If a (7) rolls, you win $10 on your Come bet and lose your $10 Pass Line bet
      • Net Win/Loss is $0 and you start over on the next shooter
    • If an (11) rolls, you win $10 on your Come bet
    • If a (2), (3), or (12) roll, you lose your Come bet
    • When any other number is rolled, your Come bet moves to that number
  • Place another $10 Come Bet
    • If a (7) rolls, you win $10 on your Come bet and lose $20 from your other Come and Pass Line bet
      • Net Loss is $10 and you start over on the next shooter
    • If an (11) rolls, you win $10 on your Come bet
    • If a (2), (3), or (12) roll, you lose your Come bet
    • When any other number is rolled, your Come bet moves to that number
  • When your bets hit, collect your winnings and replace it with another $10 Pass Line or Come bet

At this point, you have a number of different variations you can deploy.

  • Continue to replace your bets as they hit until the shooter 7’s out
  • Take your bets down after a predetermined number of hits
  • Once you’ve recovered your $30 investment, use the winnings to add odds to the Pass Line or Come Bets, or
  • Any other variation you’re comfortable with

This strategy has a number of advantages for the low roller and gives the advanced player a low cost, low risk strategy to use until they get the dice back.

On early 7-Outs, the player is somewhat hedged on the first 3 rolls netting a losses as low as $0 and only risking $30 max at the end of 3 rolls.

One of the disadvantages of this strategy is that it takes a few rolls to develop and you may miss some early hits as you’re getting your bets in place. On the other hand, you will likely make those dollars up by losing much less on colder shooters.

BEST OF LUCK AT THE CASINOS!!!

Kicking around casinos is cool and fun, but there is always a big chance of losing your money. Every casino game in the world has a house edge, because they need to make profit. But the fact is, for the casino to make profit, someone has to lose…

In games such as Craps, where you’re always playing against the house, in the long run you will not win money (mathematically speaking anyway). Most of the bets have a house edge, for example betting on “any 7” has a 17% house edge. This means you should expect to lose money in craps, as the game has negative expected value in total. Now, of course you can prevent the amount of money you lose, and even make profit on occasions, by learning craps strategy. But even if you play optimally, the chances are you will still lose money. This is why a concept known as Bankroll Management is important.

What Is Bankroll Management?

Bankroll Management is a term used for limiting how much you take to the casino, and place in bets to prevent going broke too soon. When playing online craps or at the casino, you should limit each bet to 1% of your bankroll. This is the so-called “optimum” bet size because it maximises the amount you can win, whilst also hedging yourself against variance. There is no way you could possibly lose 100 Pass Line bets in a row for instance.

Unfortunately, if you are using a betting system such as the famous Martingale betting system, whereby you utilise a “double or nothing” approach, you can go broke quite quickly. This is because the risks involved are very high – even if it seems like a reasonable strategy from the outset. All it takes is around 5 50/50 losses in a row before you lose all your money using this method. That is why I recommend sticking to the 1% rule. You can enjoy your hot streaks at the casino, leave up on profit, and still escape without losing a high amount of your roll. Of course you won’t win as much using this approach, not like the Texan plutocrat next to you blowing $1k rolls on Blackjack, but you’ll also lose much less.

In terms of how much you should take to the craps table, that figure is entirely up to you. All I will say here is that you should only take as much as you are prepared to lose. For example, if you can stand to lose $100 without wanting to kill yourself, then that is ok. But, don’t take $5k with you expecting to double it up without understanding the risks involved. I would estimate over 90% of people in casinos lose their money. I know that in online poker, 95% of players lose their money. It is only the top 5% of players, who use optimal poker strategy, that successful make money.

Finally, if you feel yourself losing it on the casino floor or playing online craps, it is always best to be open about your gambling addiction and find help as soon as possible. Please visit this page for more information and help – HelpGuide.org Gambling Addiction Page.

Good Craps Bets vs Bad Craps Bets

This section is a brief lesson on which bets you should make and which ones you should not make. Following this tips in your game you will have better chances of winning on each bet.

High Roller Craps Strategy For Beginners

The only good bets in craps are the pass line bet, the don’t pass bet, the come bet, the don’t come bet, free odds (on the pass line and occasional other spots), and placing the 6 and 8, so before you start to play for real money make sure that you understand them and you don’t have no doubt when you place them.

The best choice when comes about betting is to choose the pass line bet and the come bet, or the free odds with one of those two. The pass line bet has a house edge of 1.41% and the come bet has a house edge of 1.36%, which is good and if you take free odds on one of them you can reduce more the house edge.

Ensure you ‘take down’ any bets that wouldn’t normally be removed from the betting layout on their own. Many proposition bets are left on the board even if you win, and so can be swept away rather quickly. Stay on your toes. The proposition bets from the center of the table have a high house edge. You should not play proposition bets with any consistency.

If you are a novice in craps you should better first practice the game with free craps lessons online. Also, you could take advantage of the free craps instructions, which many casinos offer. This way you will can get comfortable tossing the dice and placing your bets.

You should try to avoid to make bets against the dice because many players are superstitious and so you won’t be an agreeable presence for the fellow players and you could even get nasty look and bad remarks from them.

Use as much as you can from your bankroll in bets with odds. If you’ve got money down on the table, a good portion of it should be on free odds bets, as these are the only ones which are fair and impartial.

High Roller Craps Strategy

Pay attention to your bankroll, and try to play with your winnings as much as possible. Craps is a negative expectation game so walking away up, however little, is definitely a win.

Never play with any systems, because in craps there are no such systems. Only bet what you’re comfortable losing, and make sure that a good portion of that bet is on the odds.
