The Best Bet In Online Craps

Online craps entices new players in a number of ways. There are bets that have exotic names or high payouts. These are by and large sucker bets. Most expert online craps players avoid these and head straight for the Free Odds Pass Line Bet. This article will teach you all that you need to know about this bet.

You begin by place a wager on the pass line bet before the come out roll. The chips have to be placed on the designated area on the online craps layout on your screen. The come out roll is the first roll of a new session. When the dice are rolled, the pass line bet wins if the come out roll shows a 7 or an 11 and loses if the come out roll shows a 2, or a 3 or a 12. The bet is then paid out or forfeited as the case may be. If any other number is rolled then that number is established as a point. You will automatically see a marker on that number in the layout. The pass line bet is carried forward and the dice are rolled again. The bet wins if the point is rolled again before a 7 and loses if a 7 is rolled before the point. The pass line bet pays 1 to 1 has a house edge of 1.4%.

The free odds component of the pass line bet is used by expert online craps players to increase the payout multiplier and simultaneously reduce the house edge. The free odds bet can be placed only if the pass line bet has been placed and the point has been established. Usually the free odds bet is restricted to the amount of the original wager. This is also referred to as the single odds bet. The free odds bet wins and loses just like the pass line bet. The free odds bet has no house edge and pays mathematically fair odds. If the point was a 4 or a 10 the payout is 2 to1; if the point was a 5 or a 9 the payout is 3 to 2 and if the point was a 6 or an 8 the payout is 6 to 5. The house edge of the combined wager is reduced to 0.8% for the single odds bet. Some online casinos may allow you to place the free odds bet equal to twice the original wager. This is called the double odds bet and results in a house edge of 0.6%.
