Big 8 (Craps term)
In the game of craps, “big 8” is a term used to refer to a specific bet that can be made on the craps table. This bet is placed on the area of the table marked with the number 8, and it pays out even money if the shooter rolls an 8 before rolling a 7. The big 8 bet is similar to the big 6 bet, but it is based on the number 8 instead of the number 6. Like the big 6 bet, the big 8 bet is considered to be a relatively safe bet, but it offers a lower payout than some other bets.
