Don't Pass

casino

A 'Don't Pass' bet is a fundamental wager in craps placed on the 'Don't Pass Line' before the come-out roll. A player making this bet is wagering that the shooter will 'seven out' (roll a 7) before rolling the point number again. On the come-out roll, a Don't Pass bet wins if a 2 or 3 is rolled, and loses if a 7 or 11 is rolled. A 12 is a push.
