$22 Split Craps System: Place and Don’t Come Risk
Place 6/8 · Two Don’t Come entries · Box versus traveled risk
The $22 Split combines $6 Place bets on 6 and 8 with two planned $5 Don’t Come bets. The nominal total is $22, but the two DC entries occur on separate rolls and may win, lose, push, or travel before the intended four-position layout exists.
It is a staged mixed position, not a fixed $22 hedge
A new DC loses to 7 while the Place 6/8 bets also lose. Only after the DC travels does 7 become its winning result. Adding lay Odds behind 4/10 can push exposure far above the title amount.
Contributor sequence
- Wait for a Pass Line point.
- Place $6 on 6 and $6 on 8.
- Make one $5 Don’t Come bet.
- After that bet resolves or travels, make a second $5 DC if the total exposure remains acceptable.
- If 6 or 8 hits, collect $7 and remove both Place bets.
- Leave any traveled DC positions to resolve for the life of the hand.
- If a DC is behind 4 or 10, optionally lay a predetermined amount of Odds—not an undefined “full Odds” amount.
What can happen to each $5 DC
| First roll after DC entry | Combinations | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 2 or 3 | 3 | Wins $5 |
| 7 or 11 | 8 | Loses $5 |
| 12 | 1 | Pushes under bar-12 rules |
| 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 | 24 | Travels behind the number |
A traveled DC wins if 7 arrives before its number. But the roll used to place the second DC can also knock off the first traveled DC, win the Place 6/8, or resolve the Pass point. The positions cannot be evaluated as four static bets.
Exposure examples
| State | Flat exposure | Additional Odds liability |
|---|---|---|
| Place 6/8 only | $12 | $0 |
| Place 6/8 + one DC | $17 | None until DC travels |
| Place 6/8 + two DCs | $22 | Depends on both numbers |
| After Place bets removed | $5–$10 in DC flats | Can exceed flat amount substantially |
Rules needed before play
- Is a DC that travels to 6 or 8 allowed alongside the Place bet?
- Does one Place hit remove both 6 and 8 immediately?
- What fixed Odds liability is allowed behind 4/10?
- What happens if the Pass point resolves between DC entries?
- Are traveled DC Odds working on the next come-out?
