| Craps is one of the most exciting social table games. Craps is very easy to play. Craps is usually played on a large sunken table. The dice are thrown by the ‘shooter’. Players place bets and the game starts. There are a number of bets to choose from. Craps is a fast and exciting game with a lot of action. The intricacy of rules, betting options, and payout ratios make Craps unique among casino games. If you bet wisely, you can keep the house’s advantage to a very small percentage (about 0. 6% in the best cases). Among the best bets are Pass and Come, especially when you take advantage of the associated free odds bets. It is the casino version of the game that gives Craps its reputation of being a fast paced, exciting game. The main idea of the game is that you place a bet on what is referred to as the “passline bet”. You have to place your wager before the dice are rolled. You win if you roll 7 or 11. You lose if you roll the seven before you roll the point number. At some casinos players can be taught the rules and the strategy of the game. It is very interesting to watch other people playing craps. If you make right bets you chances to win are very high About Craps |
| A pair of dice is one of the main components of the game. Another important component is a table. The table for craps is larger than a standard pool table. The wood railing acts as a backboard for the dice to be thrown against. All the bets that you can make are indicated on the craps table. The bets vary from table to table. The most important areas of the table are “Pass Line” and “Don’t Pass” areas The Table Layout |
| The player makes either a pass line bet or a don't pass bet. If the player makes a pass the pass line bets win and don’t pass lines lose. If the player rolls 2,3,12 it is called “craps”. In the case of “craps” pass line bets lose and don’t pass line bets win. Don't pass line bets do not win if the "craps" number is a 12 in Las Vegas or a 2 in Reno and Tahoe.
If a 4,5,6,8,9,10 is rolled on the comeout that number is called a "place" number or a "point". If a 7 is rolled it is called "sevening out". If a 7 is rolled "pass line" bets lose and "don't pass" bets win. If a player sevens out, his turn is over and the whole process begins again with a new player. In the case of a “point” number players can choose one of the bets How To Play Craps |
| There are several bets in Craps. If you want to make a line bet, you place your money on the area of the table that says "Pass Line" or "Don't Pass". You have to choose either ‘Pass line’ or ‘don’t pass line’ bet. Line bets pay even money if they win. You place your bet on a ‘pass line bet’ area if you think that the shooter will roll 7 or 11 on the comeout roll or that the shooter will role one of the point numbers and will roll it again before rolling a 7 (sevening out). The odds bet amount varies from casino to casino. In some casinos the odds bet amount is the amount equal to the line bet amount or lower. Some casinos allow to make odds bets of two, three or even more times the amount of the line bet. Be aware that you will not find an area for the odds bets on the craps table.
