Instructions On Play Craps

The Better should just bet on certain fields and roll the dice to win. The Gambler who is rolling is called the shooter. The end product of each roll shows what wagers succeed or lose on the table. The game consists of rounds. The shooter 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 start of the round is called the Come Out roll. An additional indicator of a roll's being first is a special black disc with "OFF" text.

Depending on the first roll result, the end product 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 Wagerer passed. various wagers 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 Wagerer did not pass (the roll is called "crapping out"). respective 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 intent of the shooter 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 thrower does not get natural or craps in the first roll, then the he has to roll the point number once again to be able to pass. If 7 comes out first, the Player did not pass.

The following rules are applied for each next roll:

• If the thrower got the point number, he passed. respective bets are paid out and the round is over.
• If the shooter got 7 ("seven out"), he did not pass. diverse bets are paid out and the round is over.
• If the thrower got other numbers, then diverse bets 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 various wagers. Please see the tables below to find out the bet payout amount and wager maximums.

The following are bet types in the game:

• Pass Line and Don't Pass wagers

In this case you wager 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 wager on the shooter's passing. If you wager on Don't Pass, you are called "wrong" or "contrarian" bettor, since you play against the shooter.

The wagers Pass Line and Don't Pass are opposite. If the thrower passes , you succeed if you bet on Pass Line. If you wager on Don't Pass, you lose. The Don't Pass bet is returned to the Gambler, if initial 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 wagers 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 bet is moved to current come out number in appropriate field of the "Buy wager" number on the table. Your wager 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 wager 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 bet is considered push and returned to the Gambler. If the come number comes out, the bet is moved to the "Lay bet" field of appropriate number and acts as the Lay bet (if seven comes out before your number, you win). Otherwise the wager remains until the point number or 7 comes out.

• Free Odds for Pass Line and Don't Pass

For Pass Line and Don't Pass bets, you can place subsequent bets when the thrower makes subsequent rolls. For this aim, place once again on appropriate field; the wager becomes lower than the first one. See the table below for the subsequent bet behavior details.
