Last Sunday I was bored and felt like making the 1 hour drive North from Dallas to visit WinStar and play some dice Craps. I had never wanted to play the card version they had previously, but now with dice I was down for it. Bankroll: $400; Table Bets: Min $10 Max $500 + $1 Ante every comeout roll; Walkaway: At -$300 or 3 hours whichever came first. All main plazas in Winstar Casino, Oklahoma.

Wow, $1 minimum is crazy! I wonder if that's just a promotional since the game is so new or it will be normal.
I wonder what their roulette minimums are...

Based on what I have seen and read from them the $1 minimum bet is the standard bet, plus you pay the $1 Ante on every come out roll.
I also have seen some things that make me think if you are betting $25 or more, you don't pay the ante.
I plan to make a trip to the Casino this weekend to check it out. It is only an hours drive from my house in North Dallas.

The minimum bet is $5.
There is an ante on every come out roll. If you don’t make a come out bet, then you pay the ante when your bet goes live, such as making a place bet with no pass bet.
Once you make the ante for that hand, no further ante is required.
For example, come out roll 7 winner, 2 craps, 11 yo, 3 craps, then point of 4. That will be $5 worth of antes. It’s $1 per come out ROLL, not shooter. Once the point is established, if you’ve already paid the ante, then no further ante is required to make odds or any center/prop bets.
If you don’t make a pass bet and only a place bet, then if a pass line point winner rolls, you have to pay another ante to make your place bet go live. They collect antes like mad.
I saw lots of people betting $5 with a $1 ante.
Not true that at $25 min they waive the ante. They never waive the ante.
I only went to Winstar to see and make a TR. It’s not worth going to any of these OK casinos. Alcohol is NOT comped and overpriced. When I was there, a can of Coors light was $4.50, but it was happy hour, so $4.00.
The tables are packed. People just don’t care about the ante. I think they see it as the cost of entertainment.

Thanks for the clarification on the minimum bets. I typically will have a min bet (1 unit) on the Pass Line and about 3-10 units using Come and Don't Come bets.
Yeah I understood the Ante as being for each come out roll. It's what... 20% if you just play $5 on the PL? Not really worth it at all.
I'm not a big drinker or really a drinker at all so I could care less about the cost of alcohol, but you are gonna buy something to drink if you are sitting in the casino for several hours.

I think most Oklahoma casinos offer free coffee, tea, and soda, though. I know I've seen that before.

so,
bet $100 (on the pass line, sure) and that makes the 'fee' 1%
does it not?

but when one makes 30 bets per hour per come out rolls
that is $30 per hour.
must be some super math challenged players playing Craps in that part of the country
but for a fix it is inexpensive
imo, that game and fee system will be lost very soon
as it was in SoCal

Right now, even with the ante system, both OK casinos that border Texas are packed to the gills, so they have no incentive to remove the ante. Just more profit.
One of the pits was laughing and bragging about how they can charge anything they want, including charging for alcohol, and if people don’t like it, they can drive three hours to Shreveport. They’re quite confident and arrogant. And he was making this brag to the entire table.
It wouldn’t be that bad if people were betting $100. That would add about 1% to the HE. But most people are betting in the $5-$25 range. Lots of people betting $5 pass with $10 odds. And sometimes it takes two or three come it rolls to establish a point, so that’s more antes.
In defense of the OK casinos and their craps game, that’s still a lower overall loss per hour than slots.
According to my math, it costs about $30 an hour worth of antes to play the OK craps game.
People just don’t care.

Well it isn't going to go away anytime soon... this ante system is a State Legislative thing that says Tribal Casinos can't make money directly from the table games.
Every dollar you lose at a table game can not be taken by the casino as profit. That money goes to: The State of OK (10%), the cost of running the game and promotions for guests.

The Ante is the only way the casino can profit. Without it... the casino is a Non-Profit Organization... technically... AND that ain't gonna happen. ;)

Allegedly, the casino is supposed to give the money won from the HE back to the players.
At casino Morongo in CA, when I was there years ago, they had a promotion where if you got 3 BJs in a row, you win a free $500 that came from the player pool that was fed by the HE.
The OK casinos have no such pool. I spoke to a pit who confirmed no such player pool. His justification was that the money won from the players is used to also pay the winning bets. I asked him what about the money won from the HE? He just shrugged his shoulders and said it stays with the casino to pay the players if the casino has a bad month.
Technically they can say that the money won from the HE is used to pay for comps. So many loopholes they can use to justify the ‘promotions for players’.
I’m the end, I think they just keep it as profit and write it off by saying they paid it out through various comped promos.

  • Results: +$586 Won - 2h 45m of game time

It was a good day with a couple good shooters. There were about 8-10 players at the table. I never threw the dice and passed each time. I am pretty novice at Craps so the action was at a perfect speed for me to keep up with laying down my bets etc.
Craps Table At Winstar CasinoAt the point I was nearing my time limit, I asked the stick man who had been helping me with my bets earlier what his favorite bet was. He said Hard 4 at 7-to-1. I threw down $10 and said it was 'For the Boys' and sure enough the very next roll popped out a Hard 4.

The dealers got a win!
As for the Casino itself... I'm not a smoker and soon as I opened the door from the parking garage I got hit with the smoke, but after getting in to the game I didn't notice it much and it is less than what I would get from a bar or nightclub venue.
