Players can place many types of bets at a craps table. This guide to craps betting takes a look at every single possible wager. Dice shooters need to know all the options when they start wagering, though it’s important to remember that the best bets are the basic ones.
This is an overview, but we give a bet’s name, definition, odds, and other terminology associated with it. This should give readers a basic understanding of a bet, though you can click on each entry to learn more. Read through these to find the wagers which sound most interesting to you, but always remember the basic line bets.

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.
