Down Behind [Meaning] - MasterTerms.com

Down Behind

A "Down Behind" in craps refers to a bet being removed from the table after losing.

This term is commonly used when a player’s “Don’t Come” or “Don’t Pass” bet loses. In these bets, a player is betting against the shooter, and if the point is rolled, the “Down Behind” occurs, and the losing bet is taken off the table by the dealer.

Down Behind Example

For example, if a player places a “Don’t Come” bet, and the shooter rolls the point number (let’s say a 5), the dealer will call “Down Behind” and remove the bet from the table, indicating that the bet has lost.
