Bet type

Definition

Pass

This is a bet that the shooter will throw a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll or, alternatively, that the shooter will roll the point again before rolling a 7. You cannot remove a Pass bet after the point has been made.

Don't Pass

This is the opposite of the Pass bet. This bet is placed against the shooter and wins if craps (2 or 3) is thrown on the come-out roll or if the shooter fails to make the point. If a 12 is thrown, the bet is a push. You cannot remove a Don't Pass bet after the point has been made.

Come

This bet is similar to the Pass bet but need not be made on the come-out roll. When you place a Come bet, the next number rolled is treated as if it were your point.

Don't Come

Again, this bet is similar to the Don't Pass bet, but can be made after a point has been made. You cannot remove the Don't Come bet after it has been placed.

Odds

This is an additional bet made on a Pass, Don't Pass, Come or Don't Come bet that has already been placed. Odds bets can only be made once the point has been established. Odds bets are paid out at the true odds: 2:1 on a roll of 4 or 10, 3:2 on a roll of 5 or 9, and 6:5 on a roll of 6 or 8. Odds bets can be removed or reduced at any time.

Buy

This bet can be made on the following numbers: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10. It is a bet that the relevant number will be thrown before a 7. Buy bets can only be made or altered when the point is on, as identified by the puck.

Lay

This bet can be made on the following numbers: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10. It is a bet that a 7 will be thrown before the relevant number. Lay bets can only be made or altered when the point is on, as identified by the puck.

Field

This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays even money if a 3,4,9,10 or 11 is thrown and 2:1 if Snake Eyes or Boxcars are thrown.

Hardway

This bet can be made on 4, 6, 8 or 10. It is a bet that the relevant number will be thrown in its double form (for instance, a hard 8 occurs when two 4s are thrown) before a 7 and before that number is thrown in any other combination.

Propositions

A number of wagering options that include any craps, any 7 and either 2, 12, 3 or 11 being thrown on the next roll.

Big 6

A Big 6 bet is an even money bet that 6 will be rolled before 7.

Big 8

A Big 8 bet is an even money bet that 8 will be rolled before 7.
