I love throwing dice, always have, when I was a kid I thought Yahtzee was nearly a religious experience but once I turned 21 everything else was merely child's play after I learned Craps.

I've tried to teach people both in my private life and on this very website and have had little success so I'll just quickly talk about my favorite one roll bet. I only make this bet WHEN I AM SHOOTING because I swear I hit the money numbers quite frequently.

I do this on the first roll only and it's called a HORN HIGH YO. You're betting a dollar on Snake Eyes (2), Ace Deuce (3) and Box Cars (12). You're betting two dollars on a Yo! (11). In order for you to play you also have to have $5 on The Pass Line.

Here's how it's a 'Can't Lose' bet (In my opinion)

Roll          Payout

2:              Win $31; Lose $5 Pass Bet; Net $26

3:              Win $16;  Lose $5 Pass Bet; Net $11

4 thru 6:   Lose $5 But Get To Roll again (that's kind of a win for me since I love rolling!)

7:              Lose $5; Win $5 Pass Bet; Break Even And You Roll Again!

8 thru 10: Lose $5 But Get To Roll again (And yes it's the same as 4 thru 6!)

11:            Win $32 Win $5 Pass Bet (The Ultimate Win/Win)

12:            Win $31 Lose $5 Pass Bet; Net $26

It's a fun bet that really makes me feel like I'm the king of the jungle. You'll get a lot of people telling you that you're crazy for betting it because the odds are awful but its worth it to shut them up by hitting it three or four times in a row as the green ($25) chips multiply.
