How to Place Hardways Bets in Craps

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Joseph Hickerson, pit manager at a local casino and on behalf of Expert Village, I'm going to give the introduction on how to play casino style craps. Now keep in mind that prop bets are one roll bets which means whatever lands on the dice, the next roll is exactly what you're betting on with the exception of hard ways. Now hard ways win when the dice land exactly the way the number shows, for example, a hard six would be a three on one dice and a three on the other dice, meaning hard six. If a five and a one rolls, a four and a two, which are also sixes but they're soft, this bet will lose along with a seven. Same thing for the ten, eight and the four. A five and a five is a hard ten, a four and a four for a hard eight and a two and a two for the hard four which means a three and a one will lose, a five and a three will lose here as well as a six and a two. In a hard ten, a six four will bring this bet down along with a seven."
