Even [Meaning] - MasterTerms.com

Even

Even in Craps refers to a bet that wins when the total of the dice equals a specific number.

In Craps, the term “even” often pertains to the concept of even-money bets. These bets pay 1:1 and typically include options like Pass Line and Don’t Pass bets. When players place these bets, they are betting on the outcome of the dice rolls. For instance, if a player bets on the Pass Line and the shooter rolls a total of 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, the bet wins, resulting in an even payout. Conversely, if the total is 2, 3, or 12, the bet loses.

Even Example

For example, if a player places a Pass Line bet of $10 and the shooter rolls a 7 on the first roll, the player wins $10, receiving their original bet back along with an additional $10, making the total payout $20.
