凯旋门娱乐场高耸入云。它虽并
非超级娱乐城，却是澳门最高的建筑
物之一；它散发着法国风情，放在欧
洲将会是顶级娱乐场之一；它不仅具
有艺术美感：令人过目不忘的雕塑、
大理石饰面以及开阔的空间，还是个
过把博彩瘾的舒适去处；这里的住
宿、餐饮及娱乐都堪称一流。然而今
天我们着重于一个不幸的消息：花旗
骰已退出凯旋门娱乐场的博彩版图。
花旗骰是澳门发展最迅速的娱乐场游
戏之一。它的顾客群稳定，赌台边气
氛浓烈、融洽，因为通常来讲，如果
一个玩家获胜，所有玩家都会获胜。
因此《环球博彩》得知凯旋门撤走花
旗骰赌台的消息后大为吃惊。
本文有一些花旗骰的专用术语，
如果它们看起来较为陌生，可以登录
我们的网站wgm8.com查阅《掷骰子的
规则与下注》系列文章。该游戏有一
套通用的规则，但各娱乐场之间会略
有不同，通常是在赢金和投注结构方
面。花旗骰中的押机率（也叫后补赌
注）在任何娱乐场中都是一把明智
的赌注，因为该投注上不存在赌场赢
率。在不同娱乐场中该投注的限额会
有所不同。
押机率是在点数确立后，过线投
注（也叫赢线投注）之后来作。（如
果不明白这点，请参阅之前有关这个
游戏的文章。）几乎所有经验丰富的
花旗骰玩家都会好好把握这个投注。
有些娱乐场提供两倍机率，有些提供
五倍机率，有些则提供三、四、五倍
机率（意思是，在6／8、5／9和4／10
点上分别提供三、四、五倍机率）。
然而在凯旋门娱乐场，任何点数上都
可以押十倍机率，这就是为什么它成
为澳门最受欢迎的花旗骰游戏。
为了解释十倍机率的优势，我们
来对比一下两个不同的投注，一个在
提供两倍机率的娱乐场，一个在提供
十倍机率的娱乐场。假设我们赢了过
线投注，点数10被投中，那么押机率
的赔率为2／1。
如右边表格中所示，在十倍机
率游戏中，你只是用$550来冒险赢取
$1050；相比，在两倍机率游戏中，你
需要投资$600来冒险赢取$1000。如果
你够幸运投中几个点数，那么获得的
赢金会相当可观！
该游戏一个很好的策略是不停
押“来”，并在点数循环中押机率。
如果你不停作这个投注（并不停投中
点数，且避开可恶的数字7），那么你
所作的大部分投注都将以实际赔率支
付，令你战绩卓著。最理想的状况当
然是出现一个掷骰人不停投中点数！
在此我们对凯旋门娱乐场发出倡
议：请让花旗骰赌台重返大厅！凯旋
门不准备改变主意的话，也应该出现
一家为玩家提供十倍机率的娱乐场。
如果任何娱乐场经营人想要挑战一
下，请联系《环球博彩》，我们会很
高兴传播这则喜讯。
The impressive casinoL’Arc reaches
way up into theMacau skyline. It is not
a hugemega resort but it is one of the
tallest buildings in Macau. L’Arc has a
French feel and would be considered
one of the best casinos in Europe. From
its impressive statues, marble finish and
wide-open spaces it isbothaesthetically
pleasing and a comfortableplace toget
one’sgamingfix. L’Arc’saccommodation,
food and entertainment are excellent.
But today let’s focus on the sad news
thatcraps isno longerpartof theirgaming landscape.Craps isoneof the fastestgrowinggames in
Macau. Ithasasteadycult followingandagreatatmospherewithexcellentcamaraderieatthetable,

hear thenews that L’Archad removed their table.
There are some terms unique to craps in this article, so if they prove unfamiliar check out
our six-part craps series availableonourwebsitewww.wgm8.com. Thegameof crapshas a set of
universallyacceptedrules,withsomeminordifferences found fromcasinotocasino,usuallyrelating
topayouts andbetting structures. Agreat bet in any casino is bettingbehind the pass line (also
knownas thewin line) in thegameofcraps,because there isabsolutelynohouseedgewhatsoever

The“odds”bet isplacedbehind thepass lineafter apointhasbeenestablishedon thecome-

always take advantageof this bet. Some casinos offer 2 times odds, someoffer 5 times odds and
some evenoffer 3, 4, 5 times odds (whichmeans 3, 4 and 5 times odds onpoints of 6/8, 5/9 and
4/10 respectively). But L’Arcoffered amassive10 times odds on anypoint, which iswhy itwas far
andaway thebest inMacau.
To illustratewhy 10 times odds is somuchbetter, let’s compare twodifferent bets, one in a

As the table illustrates, in the10 timesoddsgameyouareonly risking$550 towin$1,050, as
opposed to the2 timesoddsgamewhere$600 isoutlaid for a lowerwinof $1,000. If youare lucky
enough tohit a fewpoint numbers in a session this adds up toquite abit of extramoney in your
pocket!
Agreat strategy is toconstantlyplay the“come”betand take theoddsduring thepoint cycle.
If youkeepplaying thisbet (andyoukeephittingnumbersanddodging themiserablenumber7),
youwillbeable to loadup thebasesandgetpaid trueodds for themajorityof yourwagerson the

So here is our appeal to L’Arc. Please bringback the craps table.We loved it! If L’Arc doesn’t
decide todust off its table and return it to thegamingfloor thenoneof theother casinos should
offer 10 timesodds to itsplayers. If any casinooperator out therewants to takeup the challenge,
contactushereatWGMandwewill gladly spread thehappynews.
