Craps Make Em All
Thread Rating:
A game of chance! Make ’Em All Make your bet after a 7 is rolled. All the numbers BUT 7, will be rolled before a 7. (Pays 175-to-1) VEGAS STYLE ROULETTE. 4 thoughts on “ Small, Tall, Nothing at All: New-To-Us Craps Side Bets ” Chigu September 4, 2018 at 9:04 am. I wish they had the small/all/tall bet in my casino. On back to back throws I had a roll of 19 and then 29. I hit all small with the 19 rolls, and hit the ALL with the 29 rolls. Would have been an even better night!! Prior to the come-out roll, players may place an optional wager on one or more of the three Bonus Craps propositional wagers (i.e., “All Small,” “All Tall,” or “Make ‘Em All”). Each Bonus Craps wager is independent and has no effect on the primary game of Craps or other wagers. If you want to make a Small-Tall-All bet, you must make it before the shooter rolls the dice again. You can now go to the page that we list the craps bets or You can now head over to the table of contents to find more great content. Practice at Sun Palace, Casino Max, or Slots Plus to later play craps for real money.
Here to ask advice about the maths behind the make 'em all craps side bet.
For those who don't know, the bet is a wager that a shooter will roll every number 2-6 and 8-12 before rolling a 7.
I have seen the wizard's answers to the house edge on his site and it lines up with the brute force calculations I have seen simulated previously. However I was wondering if there was another way to do it? If anyone could point me in the right direction of where to look to start finding answers I would really appreciate it.
Similarly, if this has already been brought up somewhere else please point me towards it and I will be happy to read that!
Thanks in advance for any hints or pointers anyone can offer!
But to clarify, you have 2^10 states as a result of having either made or not made each number correct? I'm not enough of an excel wiz to understand everything that's going on but most of it makes intuitive sense. I am curious as to how using the mod(floor ... gives you the 1024 different possible orders like it does? Is there any chance you could dumb that down for me a tiny bit? haha
Also, the reason I stopped trying to make a sheet like that, is I thought maybe I could find a formula to solve the whole thing?
For example, P(9)= 4/36 P(7or9)1=10/36 -> P(7 7or9) = 1/9 / 5/18 = 1/9 * 18/5 = 2/5 which is obv why the odds bet pays 3/2.
Anyway, if i can do that, can I not do a formula for odds of a 5 and a 9 before a seven? I don't honestly even know if its possible just seems like to me that it should be! If you can give me any advice as well regarding that I would be very grateful!
Cheers for your time, man.
Up to 21% edge these lower payout days, correct?
That's easy peasy for you DI people to beat, right??
How about the new payouts, 30-1 and 150-1? Reply to Miplet
Yes the new payouts suck. 18.3% and 20.6% if those are 'to 1' pays.Thanks Miplet! That really helpful! I started doing something similar and then thought I might be trying too hard so stopped haha.

The =mod(floor(X,Y,1),2) formula was what I came up with to get the individual bits from a number. X is the number and Y is the bit (always a power of 2). Let's do 5 for example
1s bit. mod(floor(5,1,1),2) 5/1=5 and the remainder of 5/2 is 1
2s bit. mod(floor(5,2,1),2) 5/2=2 when rounded down and the remainder of 2/2 is 0
4s bit. mod(floor(5,4,1),2) 5/4=1 when rounded down and the remainder of 1/2 is 1
8s bit. mod(floor(5,8,1),2) 5/8=0 when rounded down and the remainder of 0/2 is 0
16s bit and higher are all like 8s bit and end up as 0
Craps is as much a gamble as anything else in the casino. You’re betting on the results of two small cubes being hurdled 14 feet down the table.
Craps’ setup can make it feel like you have no control over the outcome. But you do have some degree of control over how well you fare.
However, you can’t affect the results by how you toss the dice or using some special betting pattern. Instead, you’ll need to find games that give you the best chance of winning.
The majority of the best tables are found in Sin City. However, you must know exactly what defines a good game before you can begin hunting for them the next time you visit Las Vegas.
That said, I’m going to cover the basics of a quality craps table along with where they’re found in Vegas.
What Constitutes a Great Craps Game?
The nice thing about craps is that it always has one of the lowest house edges in the casino. Pass line and don’t pass line bets carry 1.41% and 1.36% house edges, respectively.
The craps table features a large array of other bets. However, you start moving further and further away from winning once you get deeper into the prop bets.
While pass line and don’t pass line are featured at every table, other aspects can separate the good games from the bad.
The first factor to consider is the minimum bet. Many tables feature a reasonable $5 minimum wager, but some call for a $10 bet.
You can place prop bets for as low as $1 apiece. But you have to worry about high house edges with most of these wagers.
The next matter to consider is the size of “odds” bets allowed. An odds wager doesn’t have a house edge. It can be placed behind a pass line or don’t pass line bet once the point number has been established.
Odds don’t affect the house advantage on your original wager. But they do lower the casino’s edge on your overall action.
Here’s an example of how this works:
- You make a $5 pass line bet, which has a 1.41% house edge.
- A point number is established on the come-out roll.
- You put 2x odds behind your wager ($5 + $10).
- The house edge on the overall bet is now 0.606%.
- You make another $5 pass line wager.
- But, this time, you put 5x odds behind your bet ($5 + $50).
- The house advantage on the overall wager is now 0.326%.
As can be seen, you benefit by betting higher odds. But you can only wager the max odds allowed by the casino.
One casino on the list covered later offers up to 100x odds. The rest feature between 10x and 20x odds.
You also have to consider that bigger odds require you to make a larger overall wager. Therefore, you’re still taking a big risk with these bets.
One more thing to consider regarding a good craps game is the rewards. Most casinos offer somewhere between a 0.02% and 0.05% comp rate on your play.
However, certain gambling venues are a little more generous when it comes to comps. This especially holds true for high rollers and/or those who make risky prop bets.
Where Are the Best Craps Games in Las Vegas?
You can see what characteristics make for a great craps game. But where do you find the games that embody these characteristics?
The seven casinos discussed below are definitely worth a trip when you’re in the mood to play craps.
1 – The Cromwell
The Cromwell tops this list for one reason—they feature 100x odds. This is the only casino that features such high odds bets.
The only catch is that many tables in this casino require a $10 minimum bet. Luckily, though, you can find some that feature a $5 minimum. You’ll especially have some luck in this regard during the day.
An added bonus to The Cromwell is that it’s located on the Vegas Strip. Therefore, you can enjoy the finest luxuries that Sin City has to offer after your session.
2 – Main Street
Main Street is worlds apart from The Cromwell in terms of luxuries and amenities. However, it’s not so far apart when it comes to odds.
You can bet up to 20x odds at this casino. You can also wager anywhere from $5 to $1,000 at several tables.
3 – Sam’s Town
Sam’s Town is another low key gambling establishment that is a little different than most casinos in general.
Case in point, they feature craps tables with 20x odds. They also have extremely low minimum bets that start at just $3.
4 – Jokers Wild Casino
If you’re an extreme low roller, then Jokers Wild should be your first stop. They only require a $1 minimum wager for roulette.
You can further take advantage of this low wager with 10x odds. Assuming you get tired of the craps tables, then head over to the quarter roulette and $3 blackjack tables.
5 – Red Rock Casino
Red Rock is on the outskirts of town and away from most of the action. However, this resort is worth checking out for the craps tables.
You’ll find 10x odds at several tables here. Unfortunately, you’ll have to make a $10 minimum bet to play.
But Red Rock gives bonus points if you’re a high roller. Their max wager at regular tables goes all the way up to $5,000.
6 – Green Valley Ranch Resort
Green Valley Ranch Resort is another casino that’s out of the way. But it’s a worthy stop when considering the 10x odds.
You can also make some interesting side bets here.
Craps Make Em All Odds
This can be a treat for many craps players, so Green Valley Ranch Resort is a great option.
Craps Make Em All Odds
7 – The D Las Vegas
Located in Downtown Las Vegas, The D has lowered its odds in recent years. But they still feature games with 10x odds.
Aside from this, you can risk anywhere from $5 to $5,000 on standard bets. You’ll also be privy to a triple payout on the 12 with the field bet.
Can’t Make It to Las Vegas? Consider Online Craps
Vegas is the undisputed champion when it comes to quality craps games. But what if you don’t have the funds to make such a lavish trip, though?
Playing online craps for real money makes for a nice alternative. It may not offer the same high odds bets, but it does feature the following advantages.
Low Minimum Wagers
You can’t do any better than the $1 minimum bet at Jokers Wild Casino…or can you? Most internet craps tables also require just $1 to play.
An added benefit is that you can even play for free. This option is helpful when you’re trying to learn the basics of craps and don’t want to risky any money in the beginning.
Some Software Providers Offer Odds Bets
The biggest downside of online craps is that not all software developers feature odds wagers. However, some providers do have small odds.
For example, Betsoft allows up to 3x odds. This game may not compete with The Cromwell, but it’s worth considering if you don’t have the funds for Vegas.
No Travel or Hotel Stays Involved
As a gambler, you’d probably like to splurge on Las Vegas trips often. Of course, something called life gets in the way.
You can’t just afford to cast your responsibilities to the side for frequent Sin City trips. You likely can’t pay for multiple Vegas excursions throughout the year either.
Craps Table With Make Em All
Gaming sites help you satisfy your craps cravings in these cases. The only traveling you need to do is grabbing your phone or sitting down at your PC.
Conclusion
Generally speaking, the best craps games are determined by betting ranges and odds bets. No place satisfies these requirements better than Las Vegas.
Several casinos in this town offer exceptional craps games. Potential odds range from 10x to 100x, depending upon your chosen casino.
That said, you definitely want to visit Vegas if you’re a serious craps player. But again, you might not always have the funds or time for such a trip.
Online craps can fill in in this case. You can find games from certain developers that offer up to 3x odds. Furthermore, you can also look forward to $1 minimum bets.
