We welcomed the opportunity to host students from Navajo Technical University because it aligns with our mission of expanding perspectives and building bridges.' To learn about our programs and faculty, staff, and students. Linda Jackson, director of DICE, elaborated on the visit: 'It is important that the students come here physically to visit us at Yale. The collaboration between NTU and DICE underscores YSM’s commitment to fostering diversity and inclusion in the world of medicine. The cross-cultural experience offered individuals from both institutions an opportunity to learn from each other and share diverse perspectives on the value of an education in science and medicine. Even with the 4-1 payoff, any 7 carries a 16.67 percent house edge that dwarfs the 1.52 percent on placing 6 or 8.In a unique educational collaboration, students from Navajo Technical University (NTU) recently visited Yale University's School of Medicine, thanks to a partnership curated by YSM's Diversity, Inclusion, and Community Engagement office, commonly known as DICE. On any 7, there are six ways to win and THIRTY ways to lose.

On 6 or 8, there are five ways to win and six ways to lose. You win on the six ways to make 7, but lose on the other 30 combinations. When you bet on any 7, there are no numbers that don’t matter. It’s the same way with 8 - five winning rolls, six losers and 25 that don’t decide the bet. If the roll is any other number, your bet stays in action. If the shooter rolls any of the five ways to make a 6 you win, while you lose on any of the six rolls that total 7. When you bet on 6, the only numbers that matter are 6 and 7. The key is that place bets on 6 and 8 are multi-roll bets while any 7 is a single-roll bet. It shows their thinking about the game and not blindly accepting the do’s and don’ts. I like questions like that form new players. “I know I’m being a newbie, but why wouldn’t a bigger payoff on a number that rolls more often be the better bet? “ “But he’s also told me 7 comes up the most, so why wouldn’t a bet on 7, paying 4-1, be better than a bet on 6 or 8, paying 7-6? “My friend who got me interested tells me that it’s good to bet on 6 and 8, but bad to bet on 7,” he said. One such novice player asked me why the one-roll bet on any 7 is said to be such a weak play.

It can take a while to sort out the ins and outs of a game with so many different ways to bet. Newcomers to craps sometimes are confused by the details.
