In Craps you have dices that you should throw at the Craps table and either try to set a certain combination, or avoid to set the combination depending on how you bet. Craps is a action-packed casino game with speed and usually high transactions. One of the main reasons why Craps is so popular is that the players are more active and involved in the game when they throw the dice. The players around the table takes turns to throw the dices and the one who throws the dices is called the “shooter”. The shooter continues throwing the dices until he “craps out” by throwing 2,3 or 12. The first throw is called the come out round and the goal for the shooter is to throw 7 or 11. 2,3 and 12 is Craps and would mean a loss. If the shooter throws 4,5,6,8,9 or 10 the amount will become a new point number.
In Craps you can place several different bets. You can for instance place a pass line bet before the come out roll. The bet is won if the shooter throws 7 or 11 while it’s a loss if he trows Craps. Any other number would become a new point number and then the bet would be lost if the shooter throws a 7 before he hits the point number.
If you don’t believe that the shooter will hit 7 or 11 you can choose to place a do not pass line bet. This is basically the opposite bet to the pass line bet and the player wins if the shooter throws 2 or 3 while he receives the bet returned if he trows 12. The point number works in a similar way but the player wins if the shooter throws a 7.
Pass line bet and do not pass line bet is the most common bets at the craps table, but there are obviously more alternatives as well. Other common actions, for example, Come Bet, Do not Come Bet, Place Bets, Field Bet, Big 6 & Big 8 Bets, Horn bet and Hardway bets. There are options for all gamblers regardless of whether you want high odds or low odds.
