Craps on carnival ships

[Dave Simpson]

Does anyone know the odds - double or 3/4/5 - and what the minimum is. 
 

I heard that celebrity cut the 3/4/5 odds on $25 plus bets to double only. Tables were empty last celebrity cruise and I’m regretting the next one we have booked if only double odds.

Double odds on a $10 minimum bet.  I've never seen them offer 3x/4x/5x.

i've never seen 3/4/5 on any carnival ship ever.

 

we have had some cruises where there is nobody ever playing craps... then we have had some cruises where if you aren't there by 6pm you aren't getting on the table.  you just never know.  if you go on ultra/elite there will always be lots of people

 

i think it also depends on the port, i find a lot less craps players on cruises out of charleston, SC than port canaveral

yup its been a couple years since i played on Carnival, but when I last played you couldn't  x3, x4, etc.  RCL last year was the same...its horse poo and not worth playing.

And $15 minimum on Mardi Gras and Celebration.

Last RCL I was on was single odds.  CCL is at least double.  Tables are almost always packed.

Yep - double odds are bad, but the single odds offered by Royal (unless you're betting $25 or higher) is a complete joke.

I fully realize you are talking about gambling...but the title cracked me up at first glance!

One reason I don't play the Pass line.

Definitely don’t do come bets without 3-4-5.  I stick with place but still do a min pass line and then press up the place.

Pass line house edge: 1.41%

Place bets house edge: 

6 and 8: 1.52%

5 and 9: 4.00%

4 and 10: 6.67%

Odds bet on point house edge: 0.00% - always bet odds even if only double

It’s just math
