Craps is a negative expectation game. Mathematically speaking, the best way to manage your bankroll in a negative expectation game is to not play. Otherwise, you’ll eventually lose all yourmoney.

Most people want to know how big their bankroll needs to be to win at a certain game. That’s the wrong question, even if you’re playing a game where you have a positive expectation. The realquestion is what kind of bankroll you need to minimize the probability of going broke.

Bank

With advantage gamblers, the goal is to avoid going broke before your long-term positive expectation starts to become reality.

For recreational gamblers, the goal is to stay in action long enough to have some fun. It’s no fun losing your entire bankroll within five minutes of sitting down at the table.

Bank Crapsey
