Don’t Pass Line – The betting area adjacent to the pass line. The don’t pass line wins during the come out roll on 2 or 3; pushes on 12; loses on 7 or 11. After a point number is established, the don’t pass line wins if the 7 rolls before the point number rolls again. Loss occurs if the point number repeats before the 7. Bets on the don’t pass line may be removed by the player at any time. However, the don’t pass line cannot be bet after the establishment of a point number.
