Worst bet in craps? According to many experts and seasoned players in craps, these are the proposition bets. And in these bets lies what is called the Big Red, or a wager made on the possibility that a number 7 will be rolled out next. This will be determined after the immediate next roll of the dice. If a 7 is rolled out, then you will be paid with 4:1 odds, but if other number results in the dice roll, then your bet is lost.

There are 36 possible number combination after rolling a pair of dice. And out of these, only 6 combination will result to 7. Thus, the ratio of other numbers to a 7 appearing in one dice roll is 30:6, or if reduced to lowest terms, it should be 5:1, which means 5 dice rolls out of 6 will result to other numbers, while only one roll will result into 7. But almost every casino pays out the Big Red bet at 4:1 odds, which is worse than the true 5:1 odds. That is, the experts really have reasons to advise that the Big Red is a very bad bet to make in craps.

Interestingly enough, I’ve come across an article by Larry Freiwald in AhCraps.com that contradicts this advice from most experts. Actually, he stated that the Big Red has the greatest money-making potential in the game of craps, despite of it being the most misunderstood and under-used betting strategy in craps. Following is a very brief summary of his article.
