What is the smartest craps strategy?

The best craps strategy is starting every roll with a pass or don't pass bet, at the table minimum. Once a point is set, follow that bet up with a free odds bet, as large as you can afford for your bankroll. This will give you the best chance to win and the biggest payout if you do.

What is the most optimal craps strategy?

For the most part, the best strategy of all when playing craps is to make Pass/Don't Pass and Come/Don't Come bets.

It's even possible to reduce the house edge slightly more (down to 1.36%) if you lay or take odds.

What is the safest bet in craps?

The simplest, most fundamental bet in the game of craps, the pass bet, is also one of the very safest, with a low house edge of 1.41%.

What is the hardest point to make in craps?

Two and 12 are the hardest sums to roll, since each can be made in only one way (probability 1/36), but neither 2 nor 12 can be a point. Three and 11 come next, with probabilities of 2/36, or 1/18, each, but 3 is a crap and 11 a natural and so neither of them can be a point either.

The most popular craps bet, the Pass Line, has a house edge of just 1.41% and is the easiest wager to make.

Should I buy or place 6 and 8 in craps?

Craps is all about the odds, and the 6 and 8 are decent bets, because only the 7 is rolled more frequently.

When should you buy the 4 or 10 craps?

In Vegas, buy the 4 and 10 if your bet is $20 or more. If less then $20, then place bet.
