How about the secret of protecting your pass line bet? Many dealers will encourage you to make additional hedge bets on craps numbers (2, 3 And 12) to protect your pass line bet. You’ll always hear “any craps” bets called whenever a new shooter is coming out. Wanna know the secrets that craps pros use to protect their pass line bets? Let'S find out! Any craps is the most common hedge bet and pays seven to one. This means that if you have a ten dollar pass line bet and a $1 any craps bet, you’ll win $9 ($10 - $1) If the 7 (Or 11) rolls, and lose only $3 ($10 Passline - $7 any craps) instead of $10 if the 2, 3, or 12 rolls. It sounds ok, but let’s look at the numbers. At the end of 36 rolls, you’ve invested $36 (36 X $1) in these hedge bets. The 2, 3 or 12 will theoretically roll four times (Once each for the 2 and 12, and twice for the 3) in 36 rolls. So if you win these craps bets four times, you’ve won $28 (4 X $7), and spent $36 (36 X $1) giving you a $8 ($36-$28) Loss. You can also bet $2 ($1 Each) craps and eleven (C&e). Craps (2, 3, Or 12) pays 7 to 1, while the eleven pays 15 to 1. If the eleven rolls you win $24 ($10 Passline + $15 eleven - $1 any craps). The seven will win you $8 ($10 Passline - $2 c&e). If the 2, 3 or 12 should roll, you’ll lose $4 (+$7 Craps - $1 eleven - $10 passline) instead of $10. This time, though, in 36 decisions, you’ve invested $72 (2 X $36) in hedge bets. The 2 and 12 will have each rolled once, and the three and eleven twice. You would make $7 on the 2 ($1 X 7), $14 on the 3 ($2 X 7), $7 on the 12 ($1 X 7), and $30 on the eleven ($2 X 15). This totals $58 ($7 + $14 + $7 + $30), But you’ve already invested $72 so you have a $14 ($72-$58) Loss! Another winner for the house! Read more
