Reading the chart
The column that matters is house edge. Pass line at 1.41% plus free odds is about as good as casino gambling gets. Place 6 and 8 at 1.52% is close behind. Then it falls off a cliff: everything in the middle of the table costs 9% or more. A £5 any seven costs you 83p on average every roll, compared with 7p on the pass line.
Buy and lay bets depend on how the commission is charged. At 5% on wins only, buying the 4 or 10 (1.67%) beats placing them (6.67%) by a mile. If the vig is taken up front, it’s closer.
Bet sizes that pay cleanly
Place the 6 and 8 in multiples of £6, the 5 and 9 in multiples of £5. Odds on 5 and 9 need an even stake so 3 to 2 doesn’t leave pennies. For the dice side of things, the CasinoCalcs craps odds chart lists every combination. To test a strategy over thousands of rolls, use the craps simulator, and for a quick EV check the craps calculator.
