Dennis Krum responded: You seem to miss the point. Is that a good reason to
double your bet

and give up the advantage you already have?







What Mmendoza11
said is true for regular craps, but not for card craps.



Krum's
response is misguided. You do have a momentary advantage betting the DON'T
after you survive the come out roll. But that momentary advantage is expensive
to come by (you fail to do it 22% of the time). In card craps, if you fail to
lay odds, you are still playing a losing game. Laying maximum odds allows you
to play a positive game.
