Is crapless craps worth it?

A version with no craps on the come-out, where every number becomes a point.

How it works

In crapless craps, 2, 3, 11 and 12 become points instead of winning or losing on the come-out, and only 7 wins right away. It sounds friendlier, but you lose the 11 as an instant winner and the new points (2, 3, 11, 12) are hard to make. The Pass Line edge jumps from 1.41% to 5.38%.

How we tested it

Dice from a cryptographic random generator, standard Vegas payouts, and 1,000,000+ trials per bet. For everyday bets the simulated edge lands within a fraction of a percent of the exact math. Bets with rare jackpots (like a 999:1 Fire Bet) swing more from run to run, so we quote the exact house edge alongside the simulated one.
