Craps Iron Cross Don't Pass
Craps Iron Cross Strategy
Did you bet this Iron Cross in Vegas? Did you bet something else? Did you achieve your win goal frequently enough to pay for your trip expenses? As you probably know, the Iron Cross works great if shooters have long rolls, but poorly if Red keeps crashing the party. You say you quit after 3 wins, which minimizes Red's opportunity to crush you. Don't pass betters lose simply based on come out rolls. Nothing else beats them, but those 7-11's WILL make their presence known. I don't have the time to calculate what the house edge is on your strategy, but I'll venture it's in the 4-5% range. You're not going to get beat on points hitting, you're going to get beat on come out rolls.
Craps has several elements that make it one of the most exciting casino games. These aspects include lots of bets, dice rolling, and camaraderie among pass line bettors.
Another thing to like about craps is its fairly simple strategy. I’ll start explaining this with the four top bets:
- Don’t pass line = 1.36% house edge
- Don’t come = 1.36%
- Pass line = 1.41%
- Come = 1.41%
All of these bets have a lower house advantage than American roulette (5.26%), European roulette (2.70%), and some blackjack tables (up to 2%).

You can make the craps house edge even lower by taking odds behind any of these bets. Odds don’t have a house advantage, making them the best wager in the casino.
Craps odds range from 1x to 100x, although the latter range is extremely rare. But the more odds you can take, the better it is for your chances of winning.
As you can see, craps strategy is pretty simple. But some players try everything from complicated betting systems tosuperstitions to improve their odds of winning.
