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
In every other game, the casino pays out winning bets at slightly less than the true, actual mathematical probability of the event occurring.
The Craps Free Odds bet is the single, glorious exception to this universal rule of casino mathematics.
The Free Odds bet has an exact mathematical house edge of 0.00%It is the absolute fairest, most mathematically perfect bet available in any casinoCasinos never advertise this bet because they make absolutely zero money on it
Mechanics of the Free Odds Bet
To place an Odds bet, you must first place a standard "Pass Line" bet and wait for the shooter to establish a "Point" number.
Once the Point is established, you simply take your extra chips and place them on the blank felt directly behind your original Pass Line bet.
How Much Can You Bet on Odds?
The standard structure utilized by almost all major Las Vegas casinos is the mathematically elegant "3-4-5x Odds" system.
Some highly competitive off-Strip casinos offer incredibly generous 10x, 20x, or even 100x Odds to actively attract serious, high-volume professional players.
