Craps Rules Place Bets
For the players who absolutely insist on the place bet, if the casino allows put bets, and the player is playing high enough of a multiplier, there is little reason to not use the put bet. TL;DR Put bets are simply the pass+odds or come+odds combination bet where the player foregoes the come out roll. Place Bets To Lose. A relatively rare betting option found at some land based casinos but quite common online. This bet is the opposite of the Place Bets. The bet can be made at any time and wins if a 7 is rolled before your number. Pay off are usually 5 to 11 (4 or 10), 5 to 8 (5 or 9), 4 to 5 (6 or 8). Craps Lay Bet Details; If we have to be particular about craps bet, this wager shares similar features with the Horn bet. Both of them allow players to place a bet on the numbers 2, 3, 11, and 12 being rolled but there are several important differences between them. For starters, the Horn wager includes four bets, and each of those influences. The most basic of all craps bet is on the Pass Line, which is also known as “right way” betting because you’ll be backing the shooter – along with most players at the table – to win. For beginners, the Pass Line bet can be thought of like an ante of sorts, or the minimum wager you need to get into the game. Craps rules, like so many other casino game rules, pay back odds which guarantee the house a profit in the long run. Say for instance you were to place a bet on ‘any sevens’, meaning you’re betting that the next roll will be a seven.
Although the game of craps is sometimes considered difficult, it is widely-preferred in both land-based and Internet casinos. The great variety of bets provides players with the opportunity to choose the best ones for them and offers excitement and an excellent gaming experience.
The Place Bet
The so-called Place bet is considered as a pretty simple one. To be precise, there are two different types; the first one is called “Place bet to win,” and the other, “Place bet to Lose”.

Place bets could be made at any time during the game and offer fast action. In fact, when played online, such bets require no waiting time. In addition, a great advantage is the fact that the bet could be made or taken down whenever the player wants, which is why it is called a “standing” bet.
When it comes to making a Place bet, players wager on the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10. If they have chosen to put their wager on the “Place to Win bet”, the player bets on the probability of the shooter rolling any of the above-mentioned numbers before rolling a 7. On the other hand, when the “Place to Lose bet” is made, the player wagers on the chance for a 7 to be rolled by the shooter before rolling any of these numbers.
There are three possible outcomes of such a bet. First, the place number could appear, and then the player wins. Then, the player loses his bet if a 7 appears. The third outcome includes any other number that could appear apart from the place numbers and the 7, this would mean nothing in terms of winning or losing.
Sometimes, players who use the place bet use all of the aforementioned numbers for maximum action. This strategy, however, is not consistent enough which makes it inappropriate for long-term betting. In addition, the player would need a large bankroll in order for him to cover all six winning numbers.
Place Bet Payout Options
This type of craps bet offers payouts that are quite good, especially in comparison to the ones provided by other craps bets. As a matter of fact, the payouts are nearly identical to true odds but are usually a bit smaller.
The actual odds of rolling a 4 or a 10 are 2 to 1. When the shooter throws a 5 or a 9, the odds equal 3:2, while the odds of them throwing a 6 or an 8 are 6:5.
As already mentioned, the payouts of winning Place bets are pretty good. The payouts for rolling a 4 or 10 are 9 to 5. players get 7:5 for rolling 5 or 9, and 7:6 for rolling 6 or 8.
Regardless of the fact these payouts seem relatively good, they are slightly lower in comparison to the ones of true odds. In addition, the house edge varies depending on the combination rolled.
For example, the casino advantage is the largest when a place 4 or 10 is rolled and amount to 6.67%, which is a pretty high house edge. When a place 5 or 9 has come out, the casino advantage equals 4.00%, while the house edge is the lowest for rolling out a place 6 or 8 – 1.57%.
As evident, the house holds a substantial advantage over the player who has chosen to use a Place bet, especially on the outside numbers. Of course, all of these numbers could be covered through the pass line or come box. In case that they are played with the Free odds bet, they would provide the casino with less than 1% advantage. However, there is a difference when played with the Place bet, as the player is given the chance to select the number and go directly to it.

Odds Bet Overview:
You can accompany your Pass Line and Come bets with an Odds bet. Odds bet are not applicable for Don’t Pass and Don’t Come bets. The Odds bet is popular because it pays 'true odds' on your bet. True odds are based on comparing the chance of your number being rolled before the 7. To illustrate, the diagram below shows the 7's chance of being rolled (6 in 36) is twice that of the 4 (3 in 36) so placing an Odds bet in favor of the 4 will pay 2 to 1, in favor of the 7 will pay 1 to 2.
