Basic Craps Strategy

The Craps table can seem a bit daunting upon first approach with a variety of bets available and a high level of excitement all around the table.

However, there is no need to be intimidated by this popular table game. If you want to win you must have a strategy and focus on the bets which give the greatest odds and chance of winning.

Using the strategy correctly will bring the odds to almost even, where the house holds the lowest edge possible.
