Pass Line + 2x Odds only. Bet $10 pass line, $20 odds. House edge: ~0.85%. Simple and effective.
$10 Pass + 3x Odds ($30) + Place $12 on 6 & 8. Three numbers working. Nice action without reckless risk.
$5 Field + Place 5, 6, 8. Wins on every number except 7. But heavy exposure on the inevitable seven-out.
