$5 Craps on the strip

I noticed the Craps Survey doesn't include any limit information. Do you know where I can find which strip casinos offer $5 craps? I'd much rather have $30 on a single number, compared to $60 or more.

Love the website. It is (and has been for awhile) the only place to get straight forward and accurate answers about house edge and strategy. I now play perfect blackjack and am working on perfecting a craps strategy.

My favorite way to play is min bet on the pass line. After the come out roll, I put full odds on the pass line bet, put another min bet on the come, and place bet 2x min on the 6 & 8, unless one of those numbers is ON, then I skip that number. After the next roll, I put full odds behind my come bet and if it was a 6 or an 8, I remove the place money on that number. I never have more than $70 on the table at once and that's the perfect ratio of coverage to action for me. Not to mention, none of my bets are giving the house much of an edge. Anyone else play like this or slightly different?

That is pretty much how i play. Check out this site for craps limit information...

Minimums are difficult to gather data about because they can change them on a moments notice. However, it is difficult to find a $10 table on the strip, let alone a $5 one. They are much easier to find downtown, and sometimes $3. Sometimes late at night they have $1 tables , but they expect you to bet on every come bet at a minimum.

Casino Royale is probably your best bet.

20x less than $5. 100x on 1 Table.

$3 or $5 - $500 $2,500 max. pay on Free Odds

I've been there. It's a bit of a dive, but if you just want to shoot craps it's not bad. Single deck BJ too when I was there. It's up by the Venetian, I walked right by it many times without noticing it. Good luck!

Darn few. And even if we gave you a short list right now... all the pit boss would have to do is hike the limits up a few moments from now by sheer whim. Sure during the day particularly if its early things can come down a bit. And if its Monday thru Thursday things can be a bit more tolerable. Its just that on the strip, at night and certainly on Friday and Saturdays ... you will not be seeing five dollar tables.

Casino Royale has one table with low limits and high odds.... its crowded and hectic. And I'm told that you should order bottled beer only, not drink from glasses. Others have told me that drink stuff is nonsense though. So I really don't know. But why trek to the Vegas strip to go to a crowded, noisy, smokey dive joint?

You are guaranteed to find $5 craps.

Less certain, but very likely, Imperial Palace.

Still less certain, Bally's, Excalibur, Flamingo and Harrah's. I guess it depends the day and time.

Prior to the recent renovations, the Tropicana almost always had $5 tables, even early on Friday/Saturday evenings. I don't know how much impact the investment by the new owner has had on the table minimums; I've only been in there once is the last couple of years, and that was in January 2010. I was staying/playing there regularly in 2003-2006, but it rapidly went downhill under one of its owners, and I gave up on it. At some point, I should check it out to see how much recovery there has been and whether it again can cater to low rollers without being a dump.

Two years ago during spring break, during the weekday, you could always depend on the excalibur to have $5 craps. Tuscany, which is five minutes off the strip from Bill's, always has them.

Stratosphere and Sahara too, if you bring your walkin' shoes.

I have never not seen $5 craps at Bill's, even on Friday and Saturday nights with packed tables. Sketchy crowd in there sometimes though.

Casino Royale and Treasure Island on weekdays.
