A bet placed after the point is established that works like a new Pass Line bet.
A Come bet works identically to the Pass Line, except it's placed after a point has already been established. The next roll becomes the Come bet's own "come-out roll" — it wins on 7 or 11, loses on 2, 3, or 12, and any other number becomes its point.
Come bets allow you to have multiple numbers working at once, each with its own point. Like the Pass Line, Come bets have a 1.41% house edge and can be backed with Odds for an even lower effective edge.
Advanced craps strategies often involve multiple Come bets with maximum Odds, giving you several numbers working with minimal house edge. This creates more action while keeping the math in your favor.
A point of 8 is already established on a Bellagio craps table. You drop $25 in the come box. The next roll is a 5, which becomes your personal come-bet point. Now two numbers are working for you: the table 8 and your come 5.
Come bets mirror the pass line, carrying the same 1.41% house edge, and can be backed with free odds once the come point is set. Stacking three come bets alongside the pass line gives you four numbers working simultaneously, multiplying your win rate without raising the vig. A $25 pass + three $25 come bets with 3x odds on each creates roughly $400 in live action with a blended house edge under 0.5% — far better than any place or hardway wager on the same table.
