You have found a most delightful page; a page that will help you stay at the craps table longer and win more often. No, this page does not claim to know any magical craps secrets – it merely gives you the math straight up. These craps odds charts should be studied and memorized if you are serious about craps – hopefully you will never be too serious though. It is, after all, just a game.

Let’s start with the different dice combinations that can make up any of the possible numbers that can be rolled.
