The craps table is undeniably the most intimidating, visually complex game on the entire casino floor.

Astonishingly, this specific bet is the only wager in the entire casino that carries an absolute, mathematical house edge of precisely zero percent.
The Zero Percent House Edge Explained
To understand why the Odds bet is so incredibly powerful, you must first understand how casinos normally make their massive profits.

It is the only time in your life you will ever engage in a perfectly fair, 50/50 mathematical coin flip against a multi-billion dollar casino corporation.
Winning Odds bets are paid out exactly at the true mathematical probability of the rollIt dilutes the overall house edge of your entire craps session significantlyYou must place a standard Pass Line bet first before you can "Take the Odds" Mechanics of the Free Odds Bet
Because the casino makes zero profit from this wager, they completely refuse to advertise its existence on the physical table layout.

If the shooter successfully rolls the Point number again before rolling a 7, both your Pass Line bet and your massive Odds bet win.

This simply means you can bet 3 times your Pass Line bet if the Point is 4 or 10, 4 times if the Point is 5 or 9, and 5 times if the Point is 6 or 8.

A smart craps strategy requires placing the absolute table minimum on the Pass Line, and backing it up with the maximum Free Odds you can afford.
