I know. Most of you just walk right by it. But there are approaches to the game that can and do work. Here's the strategy I use. Tell me what you think - and tell me how you'd approach the game.1. Never bet the Pass Line except on yourself. When you do bet it take at least 5X odds if available to reduce the house edge on this bad bet.
2. Place the Six and Eight as you normally would. You don't press them unless you score a total of four hits on the pair. You use them to fund your Extreme Outside Action.
3. Place the Extreme Outside numbers initially if you cannot afford to Buy them. In Mississippi it's a $10 Buy bet on the Extreme Outside so you're good to go.
4. On the first hit on an Extreme Outside number make it a proper Buy bet (minimum $20). That number becomes your dominant press number and you'll press every other hit on it.
5. All other Extreme Outside numbers you take the first two hits - then press every other hit. Crapless Craps Place Bet Payouts

Crapless Craps Payouts
As you can see from the payout table, there are many bets that sound exotic and arcane but they really aren't that good, even though they may sound like the 'secret' bets that no one knows about. Really the only good ones are the pass line or don't pass in conjunction with the free odds bets. There are a few other decent ones as well. The trick to know is that when the house edge is a very low percentage, then the bet is a good one.
