Craps Strategy

There are very few workable methods for winning in craps consistently.  
Probability theory is based on the fact that in casino games like craps, there is a method to analyze the odds of each and every number or combination of numbers which will be thrown in the come out of a roll; however, there is no established method to arrive at the exact real numbers, which will show up for every roll of the dice.  Therefore, the only method by which you can maximize your winnings is by betting on numbers with higher odds of showing up when you are playing in a craps table.

Per probability theory, the roll of the dice and the eventual outcome is absolutely based on chance and deducing the exact outcome is not possible like you can estimate with outs and ins in poker games, but statistical analysis have established that some numbers show up a certain number of times on an average for every 100 throws made in the craps table.  So, betting on such numbers in the play perhaps can give a better edge than playing without any plans at all.  Playing this kind of craps strategy is in reality not any better than unprepared betting, but there is a hairline of edge in following the high probability betting pattern.  In many cases, you are likely to lose even with high probability betting.

Either way, any kind of betting system in your craps strategy will not reduce the house edge.  Therefore, when you are playing you need to always arrive at the profit to loss ratio for your play in the casino. You must attempt to hedge play.

The craps payouts are designed in a way where huge payouts are given for rare numbers and lesser payouts are given for frequently occurring numbers. In reality, the probabilistic theories fluctuate in the real time board, instilling slight difference in edges.

Hedge playing is an important of the craps strategy, for example, you protect the pass line bet with a hedge of the opposite bet; however, the opposite bet will give you a lesser payout, but it will reduce the risk involved in a big loss, by compensating in a bit for the loss incurred. High odds play and a stronger hedge matters in any craps strategy. In some cases your hedge patterns can also mess out, but arriving at workable hedges will come with experience and is an important part in achieving consistency.
