Betting the Pass Line
When the "shooter" rolls a 7 or 11 on the first throw (The “Come-out” roll) it is refer to as a "natural" and an automatic win. On the other hand, if 2, 3 or 12 rolls, it is called, "craps" and you lose your “Pass Line” bet. Any other number (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10) becomes your "Point." You win if the "Point" repeats before 7 rolls, and you lose if 7 show before your "Point." Is made. Place these bets in the area marked "Pass Line" on the layout.
Betting the Don't Pass Line
This is the reverse of betting the "Pass Line." You lose on a "natural" 7 or 11, and win if a 2 or 3 rolls (12 is a "standoff," no one wins). If the dice roll 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 it becomes your "Point" and you win if 7 rolls before your "Point" is repeated. You lose if your "Point" is made before 7 rolls. Place these bets in the area marked "Don't Pass Line" on the layout.
Come Bets
The simplest explanation of "Come" bets is that you're betting with the dice, exactly as on the "Pass Line," except that "Come" bets are made any time after the "Come-out"
roll. You win on "naturals" 7 or 11, and you lose on "craps" 2, 3 or 12. Any other number becomes your "come-point" and you win if your "come- point" is made before 7 rolls. You make these bets in the area marked "Come" on the layout.
Don't Come Bets
The reverse of betting the "Come." You lose on a 7 or 11, and win on a 2 or 3 (12 is a "stand-off"). Here you win if 7 rolls before your "come-point" is repeated, and lose if the "come-point" is made before a 7 is rolled. Place these bets in the area marked "Don't Come" on the layout.
