Jun 03, 2020 Craps – Craps is a much-simplified game when it comes to comparison with Blackjack. Here a shooter rolls dice on the table and players place bets on the what the roll is going to be. Other than dice rolling skills there is nothing more to master in this game.

Lay bets pay true odds, but player must prepay a 5% commission, based on the possible win. This works out to odds of 19-25 on the 6 & 8, 19-31 on the 5 & 9, and 19-41 on the 4 & 10.

'regular player'. If this regular player learns basic strategy and plays at a decent place, he'll have a lower house edge... although, he may end up gambling more due to the speed of the game. The question is a little vague, there are grey areas as far as calculating house edge, amount of loss returned in comps, etc.You'll lose the majority of the time that you play either. It all really depends, there isn't a 'basic strategy' for craps. Question is way too vague. You can have fun playing either.

In what way vague? How would you more narrow down the question?

We have a fair idea of the house edge involved and game pace when flat-betting table minimum and playing basic strategy at blackjack.
How are you betting at craps?It's like saying, which car will get better mileage, the Ford, or the Mazda?
First off, I'm really trying to figure out what you're really asking about. Like, are you planning to only play one game, and you need help picking one? Are you having an argument with a friend? Clarify your question, which might help people answer.
Blackjack and Craps are two games that can be played very differently. You can vary your bets. In craps, you can choose several different bets. Which bets you choose and how much you bet on each will change your variance and expected value. And therefore, it will change your expectation of how much you'll win or lose in a session. Also, your ability to make correct plays in blackjack(basic strategy) could change the house edge up to 10%(if you're horrible to begin with).
You'd have to communicate how you intend to play either game, with more specificity, or less vagueness.

The answer will be slightly different depending on the rules of each game in the casino you play. If craps allow 10x or more odds and you strictly play pass or don't pass and dc or come bets with max odds, you'll be slightly better off than playing a h17 6 deck games. If you're going to place other bets on a craps table or the casino only allows double odds or 3-5x, probably better off playing basic in blackjack so long as bj pays 3:2. Craps with high odds multiples will have much larger swings than flat betting blackjack, if you're going to play craps at 10x or more odds make sure you have the stomach and wallet for it.

Partially agree.
If they have a $5 min with 10x odds, and you like to have about $50 in action at a time, then of course, that's much better than betting $50 at a blackjack table. But chances are, if they have $5 craps then they'll have $5 or $10 BJ. Small chance they have a $5 dice game but lowest min on BJ be $50.
Anyway, it really doesn't matter. Pick and play whichever game you like more. Or if you prefer, play a bit of each.

As a regular player of both games and not a counter, I am wondering which game you believe has a better payoff over the long haul?

The primary question is which player is having more fun, because that is ALWAYS the primary question. Its your money and you are the one selecting the House Edge, Odds, Playing Strategy, etc.
If you play craps by always betting Big Red you are at 16point something disadvantage any probably a fool to be doing it, but if that is how you enjoy throwing your money away, so be it.
If you play blackjack and can't add you probably won't make much money but dealers will call your hand if you ask them to. Its up to your style of play and enjoyment.
An average intelligent player equally familiar with the intricacies and strategies of each game is going to comped a smidgen more at BlackJack than at Craps. That right there tells you the casino values your play more at blackjack, but not by all that much.

So when all the free drinks are factored in, it comes down to the original question. Which one do you enjoy more because the math difference between the two games ain't worth the shoe leather used up walking from one to the other.
