What is the pass line in craps?

In craps, the pass line is one of the most basic and popular bets that a player can make. It is typically made before the come-out roll and is placed on the designated area on the craps table that says "Pass Line".

If the come-out roll is a 7 or 11, the pass line bet wins even money. If the come-out roll is a 2, 3, or 12, the pass line bet loses. If any other number is rolled on the come-out roll (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10), that number becomes the "point" and the dealer will move the pass line bet to that number on the craps table.

Once the point is established, the player must roll the point number again before rolling a 7 in order to win the pass line bet. If a 7 is rolled before the point, the pass line bet loses.

Overall, the pass line bet has a house edge of about 1.41%, making it one of the best bets in craps for players.
