Walking up to a craps table, the energy is usually focused on cheering for the shooter to win and avoid rolling a seven.

While playing the dark side can make you unpopular with the other players, it is actually one of the smartest mathematical bets in the casino.

Understanding the Don't Pass Line

If a 12 is rolled on the Come Out, the bet is a 'push' (tie) to maintain the casino's tiny mathematical edge.

Statistically, the number 7 is the most likely number to roll with two dice on any given throw.

• The casino actively relies on players choosing the mathematically inferior Pass Line simply because it is more fun and social
• Playing the Don't Pass line requires thick skin; you must remain quiet and respectful when the entire table groans after a seven-out
• Never celebrate loudly when you win a Don't Pass bet, as you are actively profiting from the misery of everyone else at the table

How to Survive as a Don't Pass Bettor

The craps pit is highly superstitious, and right-way bettors often view dark side players as 'coolers' who bring bad luck to the table.

Many dark side bettors prefer to stand at the very end of the table, physically separating themselves from the cheering crowd.

However, if you can handle the icy glares from the other players, it is undeniably the smartest way to play the game.
