Craps is my favorite game in the casino. Besides being fun to play, craps gives the casino one of the smallest house edge’s of most casino games. Fun game and small house edge?! Sounds good to me!

You can actually decrease the, already small, house edge by playing greater odds. The higher the odds played the less the house edge. Today I want to look at the craps odds available in Downtown Vegas casinos. Since the higher odds decrease the casino’s advantage I list casinos from the best odds to worst odds.
Although the odds are lower than the other medium odds options, this is still a good choice for players who want craps payouts larger than 1/1. Place Bet - 5 or 9 With only a 4% house edge while paying out at 7/5, the Place Bet - 5 or 9 is a good option for adventurous players. You could consider BUYING the 4 or 10 but let's not go there. If you're interested as to why go to wizardofodds.com. To answer your question placing 4 or 10 = 9:5, odds = 2:1, placing 5 or 9 = 7:5, odds = 3:2. Edited: basic strategy in craps a passline and two come bets with full odds on all. Edited: 2 years ago. For example, “3-4-5x Odds,” usually means you can bet 3x Odds on the 4 or 10, 4x Odds on the 5 or 9, and 5x Odds on the 6 or 8. Check out some great online casinos such as Sunpalace, Casino Max, or slotsplus. Let’s look at a simple scenario to see how the flat and Free Odds bets work together.

Most casinos allow craps players to place 2x odds bets in support of Pass/Don’t Pass or Come/Don’t Come bets. In such cases, if you put $5 on the Pass Line, you can place an odds bet of $10 as soon as the point has been established. Some casinos allow 3x odds bets (for a maximum wager of $15) or 5x odds bets (for a maximum wager of $25).

Even the worst odds in craps give the casino a smaller house edge than most games in the casino. Most people don’t like to max out their odds when playing craps because it’s too much action. I try to max my odds wherever I play. Minimum pass line bets in these casinos is usually only $5 so full odds isn’t too expensive.
The best craps odds don’t make the best games. I’ll get into my favorite Downtown Vegas craps games later. For more information check out Wizard of Vegas craps survey.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, craps is my favorite game in the casino. Besides being fun to play, craps gives the casino one of the smallest house edges’ most casino games. Fun game and small house edge?! That’s a perfect combination!
You can actually decrease the, already small, house edge by playing greater odds. The higher the odds played the less the house edge. Unfortunately, the Vegas Strip doesn’t really offer the diverse craps odds that you find in Downtown Vegas. Thankfully craps still has a tiny house edge no matter what the odds.
Here are the craps odds on the Vegas Strip along with the house edge for the casino for each game.

3x-4x-5x are the normal odds offered at casinos on the Vegas Strip and just about everywhere else in the country. The house advantage playing maximum odds is still better than most games you’ll play in the casino.
Casino Royale has the best craps odds on the Vegas Strip but usually only has one table open so it’s difficult to get in on a game. The craps game at Casino Royale is one of the cheapest you’ll find on the strip with $5 or $10 minimums, so there’s that.

The bottom line with craps on the Vegas Strip – play wherever you want. The odds in most casinos are the same. If you’re looking for a good craps game with good odds head to Downtown Vegas. Here are my 3 favorite craps games in Downtown Vegas.
