Craps is one of the most popular table games in casinos all over the world
. The game of craps is incredibly easy to play and it is just as easy to learn.
A game of craps is essentially played by one person. This person is the one who rolls the dice and is referred to in the game as the shooter. The shooter will roll the dice and the others at the table will be betting on the results of how the dice will work.
A series of bets will be used throughout the course of the game of craps. The Pass Line Bet is the first one that is used. What happens here is that a come out roll is used at the start of the game. If a 7 or 11 is rolled on the come out roll then a Pass Line Bet will be a winning bet. Rolls of 2, 3 and 12 are losing rolls for this bet.
If any of the other six possible numbers are rolled on the first roll in craps the number will be the point. All Pass Line bets are kept on the table. These bets will win if the shooter gets to the point before a 7 or 11 is rolled.
A Don't Pass bet can also work. This is where a person will roll a 2, 3 or 12 before that person reaches the point.
A Come Line bet or Don't Come bet can be used after the point in a game has been determined. This is where a person can create one's own point. This type of bet can work to where a person can choose to see that a person reaches a certain point before the real point comes about. One of these bets can be used until a person rolls the point or a different winning or losing number.
People can even go with Odds bets. This is where people will bet on what point will be used in a game. People can do this with not only the bets on the specific number but also with the combination that the dice will roll in. A 2 to 1 payout will work for a 4 or 10 while a 3 to 2 payout works for 5 or 9. A 6 to 5 payout is used for a 6 or 8.
It will help to watch for the black and white chip at the top of a table. When the chip is black the game if Off and the come out roll has not happened. The game is On if the chip is white. This means new bets cannot be made.
The process of playing craps is an easy one to see. This is a major reason as to why this is such a popular casino table game.
