(Remember, this is a friendly casino. Please exit the game after you win 10,000 points)

[mattmc419]

Nice!!

I have no idea how to play craps though.

Just bet on "Pass" and I'm good?

[mattmc419]

Also, it looks like the software is saying 1:1?

[SBR_John]

Yea. Most important part of craps is to back up your bet with as much as the house allows, in this case 5x. The 5x has a zero house advantage, hence it pays true odds. The second most important thing is to not to throw a 7 immediately after placing your true odds bet.

John what does that mean for a newbie crap player

[mattmc419]

oh hmm, so it means I have to bet on something else, then I can put 5X that amount on the pass line?

haha I need to read the rules I guess

[John Morrison]

i tried it , just to test it out , pretty much everytime i layed the passline odds , on good numbers like 6 - 8 , it lost about 8 outta 10 times, not good odds , ill stick with sportsbook , thx for promo john

Someone who plays craps out there:

Is this +EV, and what's the best bets to make?

[Joe Dogs]

^
Don,t pass

[mattmc419]

^
Don,t pass

So 1 unit on Don't Pass and 5 on Pass?

Trying to decide if it's worth having Thad send me points to play with.

Yes this is really good. As John said u should always back your pass bet with max odds.

Only question now is did SBR rig the casino for more crap outs to be rolled???

[Glitch]

ok ill bite.

[mattmc419]

Yes this is really good. As John said u should always back your pass bet with max odds.

But I have to bet something else at the same time, right? (for 1/5th the amount)

What's the best thing to choose for that bet?

[rfr3sh]

lost 50 pts pretty fast ... "crapped out" too many times

[mattmc419]

If it's truly +EV, then keep playing. Just like blackjack promos, you'll end up positive at the end.

Need one of the casino experts to run the numbers like they did for BJ.

[sweethook]

John what does that mean for a newbie crap player

just means you win 5x more

[gauchojake]

Im' pretty sure the bet is zero house advantage regardless of 5x or 2x you just have the opportunity to make a bigger bet.

[SBR_John]

Im' pretty sure the bet is zero house advantage regardless of 5x or 2x you just have the opportunity to make a bigger bet.

Right. Going to 5x gives the player a chance to bet 5x his pass line bet at true odds(zero house advantage). Of course zero house advantage is not +ev...i guess its =ev.

[Glitch]

built 90 to almost 500 in about 15 minutes then started making some huge bets and blew it with a few 5s in a short period of time. ah well. good "promo".

you can make it so there are very few ways for you to lose.

that was fun.

[senseionline]

make 500 profit in 10 min thx sbr

[secretstash]

im not getting paid 5X.. mine is still 2X.. please help

-stash

[BigDaddy]

so where is the edge?

[mattmc419]

From the thread in the Points forum, it appears the game isn't +EV, just less -EV.

Still a promo for those who like to play craps anyways, but not worth me trying to learn it lol

[Glitch]

looks like it only pays if the actual number hits. not on a natural 7 or 11

[Glitch]

play the pass line and a field bet hoping the number becomes a 6 or an 8 then you have a lotta freedom to leave your pass bet on and keep playing the field with that 6 or 8 possibility as insurance. you can even now put 1/4 of your field bet on 7.

dont get greedy and go for a huge hit. you'll get a buncha small hits this way but like with everything else- all you need is it to go wrong a few times if youre betting really huge to ruin it.

working for me

[FuzzyDunlop]

so where is the edge?

The straight Pass Line wager carries a 1.41% house edge coming out. After point is established, the odds bet is a literal coin flip, when you consider that 4 and 10 pay 2:1, 5 and 9 pay 3:2 while 6 and 8 pay 6:5, your edge comes from the profit paid to you in those payoffs.

Yes. Here to stay.

[20Four7]

Why can't I get 5x on my come bets? That should be increased too. I would love to see 20x odds or even 100x odds.
