What have you to say about this type of bet and do you agree that it is the simplest and most fundamental option? With a low house edge of 1.41%, I doubt if many people opt for it.

If you take the house edge out of the equation and realize there is a 1 in 6 chance of a 7 or 11 coming up on the first roll (or ANY number for that matter) the odds start to look better for you. On the 7th roll on, the odds are more in your favor.

I hadn't looked at it in that way @zephyr 12 . All I knew is that if 7 or 11 shows up, the bet wins and if the come-out roll is either 2, 3 or 12, then the bet loses. The argument has always been that the 'Don't Pass Bet' is much more preferred.

But don't you have to put more money on the table than you can hope to win back?

That was always the impression I got. That they payout was less than the wager.

The flat bet pays even money , then you can lay odds , meaning you would be paying the same odds to the house you would be receiving
had you played the pass or come
