It is not wise to play the game, especially with big bets, if you are inexperienced in the game. Make sure you know the rules and some peculiarities of the game before betting. There are plenty of opportunities to practice online without involving any money. The experience and skill of the player determines the outcome of the game. The game of craps has so called ‘smart’ bets, which are easy to define. Make correct bets. There are few bets, which have a low house edge. Such bets are known as smart bets. Always stick to your money management, which will help you not to run out of money.It is important to set winning and losing limits, after exceeding which it is better to stop gambling. If you play smart and behave according to the etiquette of the game this is your main strategy. This the golden rule of the game.
Martingale Roulette System No system can beat craps. But players believe in it. The Martingale System is the best known. The betting is started by a given amount and the bet is doubled whenever the player loses. When he wins he starts over at the initial amount. To save an amount equal to the initial amount after every eventual win is the idea. The player can be out of money doubling his bet several times. The casino can also not allow to bet the huge amount dictated by the system. The Martingale system keeps a profit equal to the initial bet amount.
Free Odds Basic Strategy The free odds bets are made on pass/don't pass & come/don't come. The player can reduce the casino edge by taking full odds on their pass/don't pass & come/don't come bets.
The Iron Cross The Iron Cross bet allows to win on every roll that is not a seven. The Iron Cross is made by a field bet and place bets on the 5, 6 and 8. This strategy doesn't create a mathematical advantage for the player.
Gambler's fallacy Past dice rolls are believed to influence the probabilities of future dice rolls. In reality, each roll of the dice is an independent event. 1/18 is the probability of rolling an eleven on every roll.
Parity hedge system Many craps players "hedge their bets" at the table. To minimise the risk of losing multiple bets are made.
Dice setting or dice control This system presupposes throwing the dice in a special manner. The theory is that the dice will be more likely to show certain numbers. Casinos take steps to prevent this. The back wall of the table is required to be hit. The controll of the spins is made more difficult.
There are several bets in Craps. Line bets. If you want to make a line bet, you place your money on the area of the table that says "Pass Line" or "Don't Pass". You are only to choose either Pass Line or Don’t Pass line bet. Line bets pay 1:1. If you believe that the shooter will roll 7 or 11 or a point which will be rolled again before 7 you choose Pass Line bet. If you think that the shooter will roll 2 or 3 on the comeout roll or will roll a 7 after rolling a point number and before rolling this point number again you choose a ‘don’t pass line bet’ area. Odds on a Line Bet. If the point number is rolled on the comeout the player is allowed to take true odds against a 7 appearing before the point number is rolled again. An amount equal to your initial bet can be placed. This bet is called an odds bet. The odds bet amount varies from casino to casino. In some casinos the odds bet amount is the amount equal to the line bet amount or lower. Some casinos allow making odds bets of two, three or even more times the amount of the line bet. The odds bet is paid at a rate equal to the odds of that point number being made before a 7 is rolled. The area for placing odds bets is behind pass line bets. Be aware that you will not find an area for the odds bets on the craps table. Remember that all the players are allowed to make odds bets, though the house doesn’t want to encourage odds bets. Remember that you can make an odds bet any time after a comeout point is rolled. Every player is allowed to make, to withdraw or to reinstate an odds bet anytime after the comeuot and before sevening out. Don’t forget to take your money or chips off the table if you win. You have to take your chips off the table and if you want them to work further put them back on the table behind your line bet. The Pass Line Bet is one of the most common wagers in Craps.

The Pass Line Bet pays 1 to 1 odds. The Odds Bet isn’t as common as the pass line bet. At the casinos there is no special area for odds bets.
