In the context of Craps, a Strong Bet can be made by placing a wager on the Pass Line before the come-out roll. If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11, the bet wins. Conversely, if the shooter rolls a 2, 3, or 12, the bet loses. If any other number is rolled, that number becomes the point, and the shooter must roll the point again before rolling a 7 for the bet to win. This betting strategy is popular among players due to its favorable odds and lower house edge.
Strong Bet Example
For example, if a player places a Strong Bet of $10 on the Pass Line and the shooter rolls a 7 on the come-out roll, the player wins $10. However, if the shooter rolls a 5 as the point and then subsequently rolls a 7 before hitting the 5 again, the player loses their bet.
