Take your proposition bets down


Don't allow the house to keep them up

When you win a proposition bet, the dealer pays your winnings but leaves your original bet "up", so it's in play again for the next roll. By doing so they're making you bet automatically, which is good for the casino, because the more people bet, the more they'll lose.

As you know from our betting guide and article on the worst craps bets, you shouldn't be making prop bets anyway. You should be making flat bets (Pass, Come, Don't Pass, or Don't Come), along with the appropriate Free Odds bet. But if you do make a prop bet and you're lucky enough to win, ask the dealer to take it down. You won your bet, so don't push your luck any further.
