Pass Line — Also known as the Front Line, a Pass Line bet wagers that the shooter will roll the Point before a 7. To qualify, you must place your Pass Line bet before the Come Out roll. (The dealer will announce "Place your bets for the Come Out roll." to let you know when you can make a Pass Line bet.) A natural Come Out roll (i.e. a 7 or an 11) is an immediate winner for the Pass Line bet. If the Come Out roll craps out (with a 2, 3 or 12) the Pass Line loses.

Any other Come Out result (4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10) becomes the Point, and a puck labeled ON is positioned above the corresponding numbered column to indicate that the Point has been established. When the Puck is ON, Pass Line bets win if that Point is rolled and lose if a 7 is rolled. Winning bets pay 1-to-1.

Unresolved Pass Line bets may not be modified or removed; they are committed until the end of the round. Once the Point is established, only another roll of the Point or a roll of 7 can end the round. When the puck is flipped to OFF and moved back to the upper left-hand corner of the table, you know the round has ended and the next roll will be a Come Out roll.

Don't Pass Bar — Also known as the Back Line, the Don't Pass is the opposite of Pass: it wins if the shooter rolls a 7 before the Point, and loses when the Point comes up before a 7. To qualify, it must be placed in the Don't Pass bar prior to the Come Out roll. On Come Out, Don't Pass wins on 2 or 3, loses on 7 or 11 and is a push on 12 - any other number (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10) establishes the point. Winning bet pays 1-to-1.
