Did you know that the game craps has quite the history? Historians have shown that it dates as far back as the times of ancient Egypt, where it can be compared to a very similar game. It can also been seen emerging around the 12th century in the form of its English ancestor, “Hazard”. Craps started showing up around the United states throughout the 1700′s.

Some of the worst bets are made in the center of the table layout, these are often referred to as “proposition bets”. It is unwise to place bets here simply because the House has a high edge…So avoid this area at all costs.

This happens to be the only bet possible within craps that is not listed on the layout of the table, & for good reason…because it is also the only bet possible that does NOT have a House edge. However, to make an odds bet possible, you must first have made a passline bet.
