Craps table

On the come-out roll, I'm placing a pass line bet as the foundation of a basic strategy. The pass line has a house edge of 1.41% and wins on 7 or 11, setting up potential for profitable odds bets once a point is established.

Point is 8. I'm backing my pass line with max odds (5x on 8 = 50 chips) for +6:5 EV. Place 6 and 8 are complementary bets with modest house edge (~1.5%) to increase my probability of scoring during this point cycle before a 7-out.

On come-out roll, I remove the off place_6 bet and establish a balanced betting approach with equal pass/don't pass wagers. This exploits the come-out probabilities (7-8 ways to win for pass vs 4 ways to lose, plus 12 pushes on don't pass) while keeping exposure well within limits. 38 rolls remain with 294 exposure available.

Point is 8 on the come-out roll phase. I have pass and don't pass bets on 8. Adding maximum odds behind both bets—100 on pass (6:5 odds pay 120) and 96 on don't pass laid odds (5:6 odds pay 80)—leverages the true odds favorably and maximizes expected value with 196 chips, staying well under my 250-chip limit and using 296 of 300 exposure.

On a come-out roll with 33 rolls remaining, the pass line offers a solid -1.4% house edge and is the foundation for a disciplined approach. Starting with 10 chips preserves capital while establishing position for potential odds backing on the next point.

Point is 8 with strong shooter momentum (2 consecutive passes). Adding 50 chips of pass odds (max allowed behind 10-chip pass line at 5x) for favorable true odds (6:5 pays 60), then placing 6 and 8 (12 chips each, within multiples) to cover the most probable point outcomes while maintaining solid exposure management with 204 chips at risk total.

Point is 8; I'm holding pass odds (50) and place bets on 6 and 8 (12 each). Reduce place_8 exposure by half (6 chips) to lock in profit, and add a smaller place_6 (6 chips) to maintain coverage. This balances risk with the 31 rolls remaining.

Starting a new come-out roll with a modest pass line bet. With 30 rolls remaining and 1023 chips, building a solid session requires consistent, low-house-edge bets. Pass line at 1:1 payoff and ~1.4% house edge is a foundational strategy.

Come-out roll with a clean slate. Pass line is the foundational bet with near-even odds (1.414% house edge). Starting with a modest 10-chip stake on 29 rolls remaining allows flexibility for come bets, place bets, and odds once a point is established.

Point is 6. I'll back my pass line with 20 chips of odds (4:1 true odds on 6 means 20 odds with 10 flat gives strong coverage). I'll also place 6 and 8 (the most likely rolls after 7) to diversify. This uses 10+20+12+12=54 chips, well within exposure limits and takes advantage of solid probability on the established point.

On a come-out roll with 27 rolls remaining and a 979-chip bankroll, I'm establishing a baseline strategy. Betting 10 chips each on pass line and don't pass hedges my position—one wins on a natural (7,11) while the other wins on craps (2,3,12), creating a near-neutral come-out outcome while preserving chips for the point phase where I can employ higher-EV odds bets.

Point is 4. I have $10 pass line backing 4 and $10 don't pass hedge. The pass line is my directional bet with 2:1 true odds on 4. I'll take max odds ($20) to increase expected value on the pass side, remove the don't pass hedge since it opposes my main action, and play for the point repeat while staying well within exposure limits.

Point is 4. I'll add a come bet (10 chips) to establish another point and gain additional winning chances. I'll also place the 6 (6 chips, multiple of 6) for its favorable 7:6 payout with 6 as one of the most likely outcomes. These bets stay within exposure limits (30 current + 16 new = 46 total, well under 300 max).

Remove the place_6 bet since it's off on come-out rolls and ties up 6 chips. With 24 rolls remaining and only 10 chips on a come bet at 4, I'll preserve bankroll and reassess after the next point is established.

Point is 5. I have a come bet on 4 that's working. I'll add a new come bet (10 chips) to establish another point, and back my existing come-4 with 20 chips in odds (2:1 on 4, maximum 3x the flat = 30, so 20 is within limits). This uses 30 of my 290 exposure, maintains good probability-weighted payoffs, and diversifies my bets across multiple points.

On a come-out roll with a fresh bankroll of 1009 and 22 rolls remaining, placing a pass line bet of 10 chips provides positive expected value. Pass line wins on 7/11 (8/36 probability) and loses on 2/3/12 (4/36), with the remaining 24/36 establishing a point. This is the foundational bet in craps with a low house edge of 1.4%.

Point is 9. Adding pass odds (20 chips at 3:2 true odds on 9, max 40) and place bets on 6 and 8 (the hot numbers with low house edge ~1.4%) to maximize win potential while we still have 21 rolls remaining and good exposure room.

Point is 9. Reducing place 6 and 8 bets from 12 to 6 chips each to lock in half my exposure on these unfavorable bets while keeping some action. This frees up 12 chips of exposure for better opportunities if the point repeats or a 7 rolls soon.

Point is 9. I have pass line and odds working. Adding place 6 and place 5 creates multiple ways to win on numbers other than 9 before a 7-out. These complementary bets improve my odds of grinding out a profit while the point stands.

We're in the point phase with point 9. I have $47 on the table and $253 exposure remaining. Adding a come bet for 10 chips leverages the favorable point phase with good odds potential while staying well within limits. This diversifies my action across multiple numbers without overexposure.

Point is 9 with 17 rolls remaining. I have $253 exposure remaining and solid position on the point. Adding a come bet with 10 chips to build multi-level coverage while maintaining risk management. This diversifies win conditions without over-committing resources.

Point is 9 with 16 rolls remaining. Current bets are well-positioned (pass line + odds on 9, place 6 and 8, come on 5). Standing pat preserves exposure at 52/300 and allows cash flow from winning place bets while waiting for either the 9 to repeat (pass win) or a 7-out. No additional bets needed given the active spread.

Point is 9 with 15 rolls remaining. Adding place 5 and place 9 (both with 5-chip minimum stakes) to cover more numbers while the point is in play. These are solid place bets at true odds and utilize remaining exposure efficiently.

Point 9 is established. I have solid betting coverage with pass line odds (20) and place 9 (5) targeting the point, place 8 (6) on the second-best number, come bet on 5 with place 5 backup (5). With 244 exposure remaining and 14 rolls left, I'll hold and let this hand develop rather than add speculative bets. My current position is well-positioned to profit if 9, 8, or 5 hits before a 7-out.

On come-out with 13 rolls remaining and down from the session start, I hedge with pass/don't pass to secure expected value. The come_5 bet (10 chips behind an established come point at 5 that is stuck waiting for resolution) and the place bets (8 chips combined) remain. This hedged approach preserves capital while maintaining upside on the point.

On come-out, I pass line (solid fundamental bet) and place 6 and 8 (best place bets with 7:6 payoff). I remove place_5 to simplify my position and stay within exposure limits while maintaining strong probability bets. I already have come_5 established from earlier play.

On come-out, I remove place bets (which are off anyway) to reset, then bet pass line. This minimizes house edge and gives a clean shot at establishing a point with low exposure remaining (282 chips), as I have 11 rolls left and want to maximize EV with optimal-edge bets going forward.

Point 9 is established. Adding 2x pass odds (20 chips on 9) maximizes expected value with true odds at 3:2, utilizing the favorable odds available. This brings total exposure to 30 chips while keeping 1047 in reserve with 10 rolls remaining.

Point is 9 with pass line backed by 2x odds already working. With 9 rolls remaining and a solid position, I'll hold and let this point play out. No additional bets needed; my current 30 chips on table are well-positioned.

Point 9 is established with pass line (10) and pass odds (20) totaling 30 chips at risk. We have 8 rolls remaining out of 40. The pass odds position has positive expectation compared to nearly all other available bets. Maintaining the current position and letting the point resolve naturally is the correct strategy here, as interfering would only introduce worse expected value bets.

I am in the point phase on 9 with pass line (10) and pass odds (20) working. With 7 rolls remaining and a 1057 bankroll, I am ahead with 30 chips on the table. The point of 9 can repeat or a 7-out can occur. I will hold my current bets and not add more exposure to let variance work in my favor.

Point is 9 with 6 rolls remaining. Adding a come bet to establish additional earning opportunities while protecting my pass line. Conservative approach given the limited remaining rolls.

Point is 9 with 5 rolls remaining in the session. I have a pass line with odds already working. Adding a come bet now allows me to establish a secondary point while maintaining my existing pass line position, diversifying my win conditions before the session ends.

With point 9 established and only 4 rolls remaining, my current bets (pass line, pass odds, and come bet on 10) have solid winning chances. Adding more bets now risks further exposure when I should protect my position; the remaining rolls favor letting my existing bets run to resolution.

On come-out with 3 rolls remaining, I'm hedging with equal pass/don't pass bets to lock in expected value while managing variance in the final hands. This balanced approach protects my 1037 bankroll and maximizes decision quality over luck-dominated session outcomes.

With 2 rolls remaining and a 1037 bankroll, I'll play conservatively with pass and don't pass at 10 chips each. This hedges risk while maintaining exposure well below the 300 limit, allowing flexibility for the final roll.

This is roll 40 of 40 (the final decision roll). I'll place a modest pass line bet to maximize expected value on the final roll. A pass line bet wins on 7 or 11 (8/36 probability) with 1:1 payout, giving positive expected value on the come-out roll.
