====Come bet====
A player making a Come bet is wagering on the first number that "comes" from the shooter's next roll, regardless of the table's phase. In other words, a Come bet can be considered as starting an entirely new Pass line bet, unique to that player.<ref name=Scarne74/>{{rp|112}} 
* If a 7 or 11 is rolled on the shooter's next roll, the Come bet wins.
* If a 2, 3, or 12 is rolled on the shooter's next roll, the Come bet loses.
* If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 is rolled on the shooter's next roll, the number becomes the "come-bet point".
** The Come bet will be moved by the base dealer onto a box representing the same "come-bet point" number the shooter threw.
** If, with the Come-bet point established, that number is rolled during this second phase, the Come bet wins.
** If, with the Come-bet point established, a 7 is rolled during this second phase, the Come bet loses.
** The player is allowed to take odds on the Come-bet point, just like a Pass line bet.

The Come bet pays off at even money, like the Pass line bet.<ref name=Scarne74/>{{rp|113}}

Come bets can only be made after a point has been established since, on the come-out roll, a Come bet would be the same as a Pass line bet. Like the Pass line bet, each player may only make one Come bet per roll; this does not exclude a player from betting odds on an already established come-bet point. The Come bet must be at least the table minimum and at most the table maximum. Players may bet both the Come and Don't Come on the same roll if desired.

Also like a Pass line bet, the come bet is a contract bet and is always working, and cannot be turned "Off", removed or reduced until it wins or loses. However, the odds taken behind a Come bet can be turned "Off" (not working), removed or reduced anytime before the bet loses. In Las Vegas generally odds bets are required to be the table minimum. In Atlantic City and Pennsylvania, the combine odds and Pass bet must be table minimum so players can bet the minimum single unit depending on the point. If the point is a 4 or 10, players can bet as little as $1 if the table minimum is low such as $5, $10, or $15 minimums. If the player requests the Come odds to be not working ("Off") and the shooter sevens-out or hits the Come bet point, the Come bet will be lost or doubled and the Come odds returned. If the casino allows put betting a player may increase a Come bet after a point has been established and bet larger odds behind if desired. Put betting also allows a player to bet on a Come and take odds immediately on a point number without a Come bet point being established.

The dealer will place the odds on top of the come bet, but slightly off center in order to differentiate between the original bet and the odds.  The second round wins if the shooter rolls the come bet point again before a seven. Winning come bets are paid the same as winning Pass line bets: even money for the original bet and true odds for the odds bet.  If, instead, the seven is rolled before the come-bet point, the come bet (and any odds bet) loses.

Because of the come bet, if the shooter makes their point, a player can find themselves in the situation where they still have a come bet (possibly with odds on it) and the next roll is a come-out roll. In this situation, odds bets on the come wagers are usually presumed to be not working for the come-out roll. That means that if the shooter rolls a 7 on the come-out roll, any players with active come bets waiting for a come-bet point lose their initial wager but will have their odds bets returned to them.

If the come-bet point is rolled on the come-out roll, the odds do not win but the come bet does and the odds bet is returned (along with the come bet and its payoff). The player can tell the dealer that they want their odds working, such that if the shooter rolls a number that matches the come point, the odds bet will win along with the come bet, and if a seven is rolled, both lose.

Many players will use a come bet as "insurance" against sevening out: if the shooter rolls a seven, the come bet pays 1:1, offsetting the loss of the Pass line bet.  The risk in this strategy is the situation where the shooter does not hit a seven for several rolls, leading to multiple come bets that will be lost if the shooter eventually sevens out.
