The craps table is undeniably the most intimidating, visually complex game on the entire casino floor.

Astonishingly, this specific bet is the only wager in the entire casino that carries an absolute, mathematical house edge of precisely zero percent.
The Zero Percent House Edge Explained
For example, if the true odds of winning are 2 to 1, the casino will only pay you 1.5 to 1, keeping the difference as their guaranteed profit.

The Craps Free Odds bet is the single, glorious exception to this universal rule of casino mathematics.
The Free Odds bet has an exact mathematical house edge of 0.00%It is the absolute fairest, most mathematically perfect bet available in any casinoCasinos never advertise this bet because they make absolutely zero money on it Mechanics of the Free Odds Bet
To place an Odds bet, you must first place a standard "Pass Line" bet and wait for the shooter to establish a "Point" number.

If the shooter successfully rolls the Point number again before rolling a 7, both your Pass Line bet and your massive Odds bet win.
How Much Can You Bet on Odds?
This simply means you can bet 3 times your Pass Line bet if the Point is 4 or 10, 4 times if the Point is 5 or 9, and 5 times if the Point is 6 or 8.

A smart craps strategy requires placing the absolute table minimum on the Pass Line, and backing it up with the maximum Free Odds you can afford.

Step up to the loud table, establish the point, and proudly place your chips in the blank space behind the line.
