Many players believe that playing progressions is the best way to play craps. With a sufficient bankroll you can recoup loses and even get ahead. When using progressions you increase your bets as you win, but lower your bets when you’re in catch-up mode. There are lots of progressive systems out there; a typical one would start with you making a bet of $25 on the line bets. If you win, you increase your bet to $30. If you lose you go back down to $25, but another win should be followed by a $35 bet.

This type of system allows you to take advantage of a good run of bets that is often experienced on the craps table. It also lessens the pain during a losing streak. Craps is such a streaky game that this system may serve you better than just making the same size bet every time.
