Proposition Bets

Proposition bets are the ones you can make in the middle of the table, and exist only on the 'next roll'. As one roll bets they can be heart racing and exciting, an integral part of the craps experience.

These bets include:
"any seven" bet
"snake eyes" bet
"yo eleven" bet
"any craps" bet
"any three" bet
"midnight" 12 bet
"horn" bet

These bets are all simple to make, and I'll walk you through them so there is no confusion. The previously mentioned hardway bet and field bet are also considered proposition bets, they are separated here as they are much more common. Each and every proposition bet has a pretty nasty house edge, so before you make any of these bets, feel comfortable.

With the "any seven" bet you're betting the shooter will hit a 7 on the next roll. Horrible house edge, never make this bet.

With the "snake eyes" bet you're betting the shooter will throw a two on the next roll.

With the "yo eleven" bet you're betting the shooter will hit an 11 on the next roll.

With the "any craps" bet you're betting the shooter will throw a 2, 3, or 12 on the next roll.

With the "any three" bet you're betting the shooter will throw a 3 on the next roll.

With the "midnight" bet you're betting the shooter will throw a 12 on the next roll.

With the "horn" bet you're combining the snake eyes, 3, yo 11, and midnight bets.

Just to illustrate the horrible house edge on many of these proposition bets I have provided a table:
