Why bet the don't pass? It is the opposite bet of the pass line. If the shooters can not roll point winners it seems like a "no brainer" to bet for the 7 with the don't pass. Its disadvantage is it loses on a come out roll 7 or 11.

The house edge between the two bets are almost identical so the choice is up to the player.

Laying the odds on the don't pass can get confusing for most players. Most craps players choose to make the pass line bet over the don't pass bet.
