If you made a $15 place bet on the four and that number was thrown twice, you would win $54 and still have a $15 place bet working on the four. You now have $40 in your rack, a $25 profit. You win your come bet, get paid $25 and your come bet of $15 is returned to you. You make a $10 odds bet and the next roll of the dice is another four. You make a $5 come bet, the dice are rolled and a four is thrown. Your profit is greatly increased after you win your second place bet.

The tables below show the difference between the two types of bets. The first time to establish the come point and a second time to win. These tables show how much you’d win on each number for both types of bets.Īlthough the place bets pay only slightly higher than the come bets, you have to remember that a come bet number has to be thrown twice in order to win. In the tables below, I’ll show you how this is so in my article below about the place bet vs come bet.

As I learned more about the game and how the payouts worked, I realized that the place bet was the far better bet.
