Understanding Dice Odds

There are a lot of casino games that use dices, including Craps and Klondike. That is why you should really take your time and understand dice odds, especially if you want to be more profitable when playing casino dice games. In this part, we are going to take a look at dice odds based on the game of craps; you can still use the information to play other casino games that involve the use of dices.

If you place Don’t Pass bet, you need a 7 in order to win the payout. Luckily, there are 6 ways for two dices to roll a 7, which means you have nice 5 to 1 odds of winning the bet. If the dices roll out a 7, you win your Don’t Pass bet. Rolling a 6, on the other hand is slightly more difficult since there are only 5 ways to roll a 6 with a set of two dices. The same goes for rolling an 8; you also have only 5 ways to roll an 8 with two dices.

2, 3, and 12 are considered “craps numbers”, and you will lose your passline bet should the shooter rolls out any of these number. The odds of hitting a 2 or a 12 are actually pretty slim, 35 to 1 to be exact, so most of the time you don’t have to worry about losing your money right after the Come Our Roll. A total of 3, on the other hand, has slightly more chances of showing up; it is rated at 17 to 1 odds.
