Introduction

Hot Shooter Jackpot

The Hot Shooter Jackpot is an exciting side wager found in certain electronic craps games known as Roll to Win. I've heard it's available at Harrah's Cherokee in North Carolina. This bet pays out based on how many times the shooter successfully rolls the dice.

Rules

  1. This wager is placed at the moment when a new shooter is taking their turn with the dice.
  2. Payouts for this bet correspond to how often the shooter rolls the dice; this includes every roll until a seven-out occurs, plus one additional roll for the seven-out itself.
  3. The pay table is as follows:
    • 51+ rolls pays 100 for 1.
    • 45 to 50 rolls pays 30 for 1.
    • 40 to 44 rolls pays 12 for 1.
    • 32 to 39 rolls pays 7 for 1.
    • 24 to 31 rolls pays 5 for 1.
    • 16 to 23 rolls pays 3 for 1.
    • 8 to 15 rolls pays 1 for 1 (in other words, a push).
    • 2 to 7 rolls (1 is impossible) is a loss
