Learn to Play Craps
Craps
is quite possibly the most exciting casino game around. Not
only is it fun but it is very easy to learn. You can learn the
basics of the game in no time.
This is how
Craps is played:
The players take
turns rolling two dice. The player that is rolling the dice is
called the shooter. All of the players bet on the same
roll no matter who the shooter is. The first roll of a new round
is called the come-out roll.
Craps has over
40 different bets, but the most basic is the
pass line
bet.
A passline bet is
the simplest bet that you can make at the craps table. Believe
it or not, the passline bet is enough to get you started in
playing craps.
On the come-out
roll, the pass line bettors win when either a 7 or 11 is rolled.
A 2, 3, or 12 loses, and is called craps. When any other number
(4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10) is rolled it is called the
point.
Once the point has been set, the pass-line bettor wins if the
point is rolled again, and loses if a 7 is rolled first.
Once the point is
established the bettor can make an additional bet behind the
passline bet. This is known as the Odds Bet. It is the
only bet in the casino that does not have a house edge as it is
paid off with true odds.
Most casinos offer double
odds, which mean you can make a bet twice the size of your pass
line bet. If your passline bet is $10 you are allowed to make an
odds bet of $20.
The odds bet are paid as
following:
If the point is 4 or 10 it pays 2 to 1.
If the point is 5 or 9 it pays 3 to 2.
If the point is 6 or 8 it pays 6 to 5.
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 the
point round the don't pass bet wins if a 7 is rolled and loses
if the point is rolled.
