Don't Pass Line [Meaning] - MasterTerms.com

Don’t Pass Line

A Don’t Pass Line bet in Craps is a wager that the shooter will lose.

In detail, when a player places a Don’t Pass Line bet, they are betting against the shooter. If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, the bet loses, but if the roll is 2 or 3, the bet wins. A 12 is a push, meaning the bet neither wins nor loses. If a point is established, the player wins if a 7 is rolled before the point is repeated.

Don’t Pass Line Example

For example, if a player bets on the Don’t Pass Line and the shooter rolls a 3, the player wins the bet. If the point is 8 and a 7 is rolled before an 8, the player also wins.
