Unless there's somthing special going on there are really no smart bets in craps, just less stupid ones. That goes for anything -EV. You can improve your chances of winning by simply using martingale. Improving your chances won't change EV.

If people want to have fun and play -EV games there's nothing wrong with that. Just don't try to fool yourself or others you have an advantage.
