MAKING A KILLING AT CRAPS page 3
Let's say you have made a pass line bet and point 5 has been
established. You may now bet a like amount by placing it behind your
pass line bet. This means an "odds bet" on 5. If 7 turns up before
5, you lose both bets. If 5 turns up before 7, you win both bets.
On a come point the bet is the same. You identify the point to the
dealer saying for example "odds on 5". He will place your bet on top
of your come bet.
If the come-out roll intervenes this, the odds bet is off unless you
specify to the dealer that you wages "work" on the come-out roll.
ODDS Payoff ( by exact odds )
Point
4 or 10 --------- 6 to 3
5 or 9 ----------- 6 to 4
6 or 8 ----------- 6 to 5
To maximize the odds, you should bet 3 units of the table minimum
so you may always get full odds.

In this way, if the point is 5 or 9, you may be a full 6 units
(more than the original bet ) instead of the actual odds of 4 1/2 to
3.
Work on your game and begin this way: 1st bet only on the pass
line. When you have learned the game well enough, bet full
odds on the point rolls. Then make come bets and bet full odds
on point rolls. ( You can at this point bet don't pass or don't
come with full odds. ) - End of Ebook - |
