Betting Right

In craps, Betting Right refers to betting with the shooter. This means you're wagering that the shooter will win by rolling a natural on the come-out roll or by making the point before rolling a 7.

Key Details of Betting Right

Betting Right involves placing Pass Line and Come bets.
The house edge on these bets is relatively low, 1.41% for Pass Line and 1.36% for Come bets.
Payouts for these bets are typically 1:1.

How to Bet Right in Craps

Betting Right in craps involves placing a Pass Line bet before the come-out roll, and/or placing Come bets after the point has been established. You win if the shooter wins, and lose if the shooter loses.

How Does Betting Right Work?

With a Pass Line bet, if the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, you win. If they roll a 2, 3, or 12, you lose. Any other number becomes the point. If the shooter rolls the point again before rolling a 7, you win. With a Come bet, the same rules apply but on rolls after the come-out.

Examples of Betting Right in Action

For example, if you place a $10 Pass Line bet and the shooter rolls a 7, you win $10. If the point becomes 4 and the shooter rolls a 4 again before a 7, you win another $10. If you also placed a $10 Come bet and the next roll was a 5, you'd have a second point to win on.
