2) Craps Point Numbers are 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 & 10 and these points must be repeated before a 7 is rolled.

3) Craps: When a player is handed the dice to throw, the first roll is called a ‘come-out’ and a 7 or 11 immediately wins.  Whereas the 2, 3, or 12 immediately loses. 

4) Craps:  If the player throws any of the other numbers: 4 ,5, 6, 8, 9, 10. --the player continues to throw until either that same point number is rolled again, in which case the player wins, or until a 7 is rolled, in which case the player loses. 

5) Any other number has no significance to the pass-line wager. This explains why the 7 sometimes wins, and sometimes loses.  If it is thrown on the first roll, it wins.  If it’s thrown when the player tries to repeat his first-roll number, it loses and is called a 7-out.

6) Keep Pass Line and Come bets to table minimum.

7) Place Odds bets, after count established, with as much as your bankroll will allow. This is where the money is made at the craps table.

8) Be sure to place correct amount on odds bets or casino pays only even money.

9) Placing the 6 and 8 is a good craps bet.

10) Don’t Pass/Don’t Come are excellent bets at a ‘cold’ craps table.
