However, in the table-game the Pass Line bettor can help his cause somewhat by placing what are called Odds behind his Pass Line bet. The odds bets are paid off at true odds. Thus, if the point is four, and the shooter makes his point, the odds bet is paid off at two to one. The original Pass Line bet is only paid off at even money. It is usually recommended that Pass Line bettors take the maximum odds allowed. Unfortunately, all the versions of video-craps that I’ve researched for this book did not have the odds bet as a feature of their programming, nor did they have any version of place betting that paid the usual house odds of 9 to 5 on the four or ten; 7 to 5 on the five or nine; and 7 to 6 on the six or eight. All place bets were either unavailable or paid off at even money. That effectively eliminates playing any version of the Captain’s Supersystem or Five-Count Place Betting strategies at video craps.
There are two other types of bets of which you should be aware: Come Bets, and Don’t Come Bets With the knowledge of the Pass and Don’t Pass bets, these other two will form the framework for your playing of the machine. These bets function precisely as the Pass Line and Don’t Pass bets, usually with one exception-they must be placed after the shooter-in-the-machine has already established the point.
Let us say that the shooter-in-the-machine has established his point. You now place a bet in the Come area of the layout. If the shooter-in-the-machine rolls a seven or 11, you are a winner. If the shooter-in-the-machine rolls a two, three, or 12, you are a loser. Now, if the roll was a seven, the machine will pay off your Come bet and return both your original bet and its payoff since the shooter-in-the-machine has sevened out before making the point. However, if an 11 appears, you take your winnings and you have the option of leaving your original Come bet on the layout, increasing it, or taking it off. If a two, three, or 12 is thrown, your Come bet is lost and, if you wish to have another Come working, you must press the button on the layout.
Now, if and when the shooter-in-the-machine rolls a point number (four, five, six, eight, nine, or 10), the machine will take your Come bet and “place” it on the number. You will not be given the option of placing odds on it. To win a Come bet, the shooter must roll that number again before he rolls a seven.
The Don’t Come works in just the opposite fashion. When you place your bet in the Don’t Come box, a two or three will win even money but a seven or 11 will lose for you. A12 will be a push. However, should the shooter-in-the-machine roll a point number, your Don’t Come bet is “placed” in the lay portion of the number’s box and now a seven will win the bet for you. However, if the shooter-in-the-machine rolls that number before rolling a seven, you lose. Like the Don’t Pass, you can lay odds on the Don’t Come bets as well.
The mathematics of craps gives the casinos an edge of 1.414 percent on the Pass and Come bets, and 1.402 on the Don’t Pass and Don’t Come bets. These are the only bets you should make at video craps if you want a chance to achieve victory.
The rise of the online casino game
The 20th century has ushered in a totally new form of entertainment. It used to be that people would venture to casino’s only in the hope of making money. Today this is not so. People come just for the entertainment. Instead of going out to see a movie or to a sports event, one will come and spend there money at an online casino. This give you both the opportunity to be entertained and potentially make money at the same time. The indirect consequence of this is that entertainment has gone online.
Offline entertainment like going to movies or watching TV shows has become less popular. For example, who wants to be a millionaire, used to be a TV show, but now it is an online game which is as popular as ever. And the trend is continuing to grow with more and more people moving over to online games such as craps and roulette and other action and strategy games. People are going more and more into the cyberworld to be entertained.

The table game begins when the stickman pushes five dice to the new shooter for the Come Out roll. In the video version, you put in the number of coins that you want to bet. The machine automatically credits these coins to you and you can bet one, two or more (usually up to ten) on the bets you select. Just as in regular craps, the video-craps player can bet on more than one result.
In the video-craps game, you do not have to follow the procedure for the table-game which would be to place a bet on either the Pass Line or the Don't Pass Line, for the Come-Out roll. You can start the game with any bet just by pressing the ROLL THE DICE button. However, since the Pass Line or Don't Pass bets with a house edge of only 1.4 percent are two of the best bets in video craps (the others being the Come and Don't Come), either of these would be the bets to make initially. In machine language, any of the four bets mentioned would make the video-craps machine a 98.6 percent payback machine. Not bad at all!
If the first roll is a seven or 11, the Pass Line wins even money. Those on the Don't Pass Line lose their bets. However, if the shooter-in-the-machine rolls a two or three on the Come Out roll, the Don't Pass wins even money, and the Pass loses. Should the shooter-in-the-machine roll a 12, the Pass loses but the Don't Pass pushes (no decision).
The shooter-in-the-machine will keep rolling Come Out rolls until it rolls a four, five, six, eight, nine, or 10. (Remember that you must press the ROLL button for a decision to be rendered.) These are called point numbers. Let us say the shooter-in-the-machine rolls a six. That now becomes the point and the machine will indicate either by lighting up the point number or, more likely, by entering the point (in this case a six) in a box labeled POINT NUMBER. For Pass Line bettors, the shooter-in-the-machine must roll another six before it rolls a seven in order to win. For Don't Pass bettors, the shooter-in-the-machine must roll the seven before a six for them to win.
Although in the long term mathematics of craps, the Don't Pass bettor has a slight edge over the Pass bettor, in reality this edge is so slight that it is essentially irrelevant. However, what is not irrelevant is the disparity of opportunity on or after a Come Out roll.
On the Come Out roll, the Pass Line bettor is in the driver's seat. That's because he wins on a seven or 11, and loses on a two, three or 12. Now, there are six ways to make a seven and two ways to make an 11, which gives the Pass Line bettor eight chances in 36 rolls for a win. However, there are four ways he can lose because the combined totals of two, three, and 12 can be made in four different ways. Thus, overall, the Pass Line shooter has a two to one advantage on the Come Out roll.
On the other hand, the Don't Pass bettor is at his most vulnerable on the Come Out because he theoretically loses eight times for every 36 rolls, but only wins three times on the two and three (remember, the Don't Pass bettor pushes on the 12—that's the casino's edge for this type of bet). Thus, the Don't Pass bettor faces odds of 8 to 3 against him on the Come Out.
Once the shooter-in-the-machine establishes a point, however, the nature of the game shifts dramatically in favor of the Don't Pass bettor. That's because the seven now becomes the standard for success or failure. The Pass Bettor must buck the odds against him, while the Don't Pass bettor has the odds heavily in his favor.
The following chart shows the relationship of every point number to the seven. Since most bettors are right bettors, that is they bet with the shooter-in-the-machine and against the seven, the chart is structured against the Pass Bettor. For example, the point number of four is made three ways in relation to the seven's six ways. The seven will come up six times for every three times of the four. Thus, the odds are two to one against the four. However, the Don't Pass bettor has odds of two to one in his favor!
