Craps is a very famous casino game that we usually see in brick and mortar casinos and some online casino. It was originated from an old English game known as “Hazard” and was actually a simpler version of that game. Both Craps and Hazard are played using a pair of dice in which determine the outcome of the game based on roll or series of rolls. Here in this game, players may wager against other players (Street Craps) or against the bank (Casino Craps). Because this game is a bit easy to set up, it can be played with informal setup known as “Street Craps. In the usual games, it is played in rounds. In each round, the Shooter (The Player who throws the dice) is often changed at the end of rounds and passed to the next player in a clockwise turn.
Now, since you've already known some of the important things about Craps, let's get back to the guidelines of the game.
How To Play Craps
In the beginning of each round, the Shooter makes one or more rolls. The player who acts as the shooter must have a bet on either “Pass” line or “Don't Pass” line. These “Pass” and Don't Pass” are betting on the outcome of a round.
There are two phases in each round called “come-out” and “point”. Each number of come-out rolls correspond to different results. The come-out roll that results to 2,3 or 12 are losing results and also called as “craps”. Everyone who put bets on Pass line loses in this round. In contrary, the come-out roll of 7 and 11 is a winning result for those who bet on pass line and receive their payout. The other possible numbers in the results are the “point” numbers, which are 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10. If in case the shooter rolls the pair of dice and results to one of the point numbers, it will establish the “point” or the number that must be rolled again before seven. When this happened, the second phase starts and the shooter roll the pair of dice again. If the rolls resulted to 7 before repeating the point number, the round ends and the Pass line bets loses.
