How to Play Craps

The Better should just bet on certain fields and roll the dice to succeed. The Gambler who is rolling is called the shooter. The consequence of each roll shows what bets win or lose on the table. The game consists of rounds. The thrower rolls the dice one or several times in each round. The purpose of the thrower is to pass the round. There are two kinds or rolls that enable to pass or not to pass the round:

The come out roll

The shooter's initial roll in the beginning of the round is called the Come Out roll. An another sign of a roll's being initial is a special black disc with "OFF" text.

Depending on the initial roll result, the consequence of the round are determined:

• If the thrower got 7 or 11 in total (the numbers are called natural) in this roll, it means the Player passed. diverse bets are paid out and the round is over.
• If the thrower got 2 in total (snake eyes), 3 (cross eyes), or 12 (box cars) in this roll, the Player did not pass (the roll is called "crapping out"). several wagers are paid out and the round is over.
• If the Player did not get natural or craps, the Wagerer got the "point number". In this case the disc is turned upside down to show "ON" and placed opposite the point number in the table, so that the Wagerer could be sure what the point number is. Then the purpose of the thrower is to get the point number in total before 7 in total comes out. The thrower makes subsequent rolls for it.

Subsequent Rolls

If the shooter does not get natural or craps in the initial roll, then the he has to roll the point number once again to be able to pass. If 7 comes out first, the Wagerer did not pass.

The following rules are applied for each next roll:

• If the thrower got the point number, he passed. several bets are paid out and the round is over.
• If the shooter got 7 ("seven out"), he did not pass. several wagers are paid out and the round is over.
• If the shooter got other numbers, then diverse wagers are paid out and the thrower rolls on, trying to get the point number.

After the Wagerer passed or did not pass, the new round starts. Another person can be the shooter then. In land casinos, the shooter is usually changed when he gets the seven out.

The Craps game has a lot of diverse wagers. Please see the tables below to find out the bet payout amount and wager limits.

The following are wager types in the game:

• Pass Line and Don't Pass bets

In this case you bet on the thrower's passing or not passing in the round. If you bet on the Pass Line field, you are called a "right" bettor, since you bet on the thrower's passing. If you bet on Don't Pass, you are called "wrong" or "contrarian" bettor, since you play against the thrower.

The bets Pass Line and Don't Pass are opposite. If the shooter passes , you win if you bet on Pass Line. If you wager on Don't Pass, you lose. The Don't Pass wager is returned to the Better, if first roll was 2 in total.

• Come and Don't Come bets

This kind of bets is very close conceptually to the above kinds of wagers, except that these bets are only placed for subsequent rolls.

The Come wager wins if the next number to come out is natural (7 or 11). If the next roll gives a crap (2, 3 or 12), the wager loses. When the next roll gives 4, 5, 6, 8, 9,10 (the come numbers), your wager is moved to current come out number in appropriate field of the "Buy wager" number on the table. Your bet plays the same as the Buy bet (if this number comes out before seven, you succeed). Otherwise the wager remains until a point number or 7 comes out.

The Don't Come bet is contrary to the Come bet. The Don't Come wager wins if the next roll gives 3 or 12, and loses if 7 or 11 comes out. If the next roll gives 2, the wager is considered push and returned to the Gambler. If the come number comes out, the bet is moved to the "Lay wager" field of appropriate number and acts as the Lay bet (if seven comes out before your number, you succeed). Otherwise the wager remains until the point number or 7 comes out.
