Clear Your Casino Bonus by Playing Online Craps
Be smart, play smart, and learn how to play craps the right way!
Many online casinos offer free casino bonuses to play on their site. The problem is, you can’t cash-out or withdraw any of that bonus money until you meet their minimum betting requirements or minimum playing time. So, how do you gamble with their free money and have enough left over to actually have a profit?
Gambling is exactly that–gambling. The house always has the advantage, so you’ll likely lose not only the free money that the online casino gives you as a bonus to get you to play on their site, but they’re counting on you to pull out your credit card and deposit some of your own money and then lose that as well. The secret to meeting the online casino’s betting requirement (a.k.a. “clearing the online casino bonus”) is to play the games that have the lowest house advantage and hope luck is on your side for the brief moment of time that you play with their money. Craps is an online game you might want to consider playing to clear that bonus.
Craps is fast-paced. Online craps is even faster. You can play the bets with the lowest house advantage and not have to wait for slow dealers or other delays that you definitely experience at live craps tables. You can make your bets and roll the dice quickly. The quicker you play, the quicker you can meet your playing or betting requirement.
Craps also has one of the lowest house advantages of all casino games. For example, the simple Pass Line bet has a house advantage of only 1.41%. The Pass Line with single odds bet has a house advantage of only 0.85%. That’s less than 1%. The Place bet on the number 6 or 8 has a house advantage of only 1.52%. So, it’s easy to see that you can make bets with low house advantages and still be fairly close to a 50-50 game. Always remember though, with a house advantage (even small ones), you’re going to lose over the long-term. Be careful not to make bets that have high house advantages. Some craps bets have a house advantage as high as 16.67%. Wow! That’s a true sucker bet! You must understand the game and know which bets are “good” in terms of low house advantage and which bets are “bad” in terms of high house advantage. I consider craps bets with house advantages below 2% as “good” bets, and those with house advantages above 4% as “bad” bets. The bets between 2% and 4% are what I call “maybe” bets, but I usually don’t play them. I always stick to the bets with the lowest house advantage, and you should, too.
If you combine the fast play of craps with its low house advantages on certain bets, it’s easy to see how you can quickly clear your online casino bonus. If you’re lucky during that short playing time, you might even have some of their free money left over after you clear the bonus, which means you can cash-out for a profit.
The key is not to expect to win all the time. Most of the time, you’ll probably lose your free bonus before you meet the betting requirement. Then, when you do lose all their free bonus money, don’t dig into your wallet for your credit card and don’t deposit your own money.
Now you know! Remember, learn how to play craps the right way.
