2. Craps - Overview


Craps, which was previously known as Crabs, is a casino disc game. Craps is actually a simplification of the Old English game Hazard. Players wager money against the casino on the outcome of one roll, or of a series of rolls of two dice.

Craps can also be played in less formal settings and is said to be popular among soldiers. In those scenarios, side bets are more frequent. Furthermore, one or several participants will cover or fade bets against the dice.

3. The Basics


Turns are taken rolling 2 dice. All players then bet on the same roll, regardless of who is rolling. The player the dice is called the Shooter. The first roll of a new round is called the come out roll. All bets are based on the total of both dice together, or on the specific combination of the roll.

There are many types of bets, but the most fundamental is the “pass line” wager, which nearly all players make. On a come out roll, the pass line bettors win when either a 7 or 11 is rolled. A2, 3, or 12 loses and is called Craps. When any other number (4,5,6,7,8,10) is rolled, it is called the Point. Once a point has been set, the pass line bettor wins if the point is rolled again, and loses if a 7 is rolled first. A shooter will to continue to roll until seven-out, at which point the dice pass to the next shooter for a new come out roll.

The opposite of a pass line bet is the "don't pass" bet, which wins on a come-out roll of 2 or 3, loses on 7 or 11, ties on 12, and goes to the point round when any other number is rolled. (In some casinos the 2 is barred and in such cases the 2 will tie but the 12 will win). In the point round the don't pass bet wins if a 7 is rolled and loses if the point is rolled. People who bet on the don't pass are called wrong bettors, while those who bet on the pass are called right bettors, only because most craps players make the pass line bet instead of the don't pass bet.

A casino craps table is run by four casino employees: a boxman who guards the chips, supervises the dealers and handles coloring out players; two base dealers who stand to either side of the boxman and collect and pay bets; and a stickman who stands directly across the table from the boxman and announces the results of each roll and then collects the dice with an elongated wooden stick. He is also in charge of managing the bets made on the center of the table (hardways, yo, horn, etc).

A new shooter, who must bet the table minimum on either the pass line or the don't pass line to play, is presented five dice by the stickman and picks two.

4. Etiquette


Certain unwritten rules of etiquette exist while playing craps other then the actual rules of the game. Many consider these guidelines as important as the actual rules themselves. New players should familiarize themselves with them before approaching a craps table.
