Learn to Play Craps at Casino

It’s not difficult to understand and play Craps, despite its initially complex appearance. Playing Craps is almost as much fun to watch as it is to play due to its fast pace and variety of betting options.

How to Play Craps and Bet on it

You can place over forty different wagers in craps. Among the most popular bets are:

• Pass Line: Pass line bets offer a win or loss outcome. In the event that the shooter rolls either a 7 or 11, you will automatically win. In case of a 2, 3, or 12, you will lose. Whenever another number appears, it becomes a point. The shooter must roll a point prior to rolling a 7 to win. The point shooter rolls a 7 prior to the point, you lose.
• Come Bet: Come bets are variations of pass line bets that treat next roll similarly to come out bet. On the next roll, if he lands either 7 or 11, you’ll win. In the case of a 2, 3 or 12, you will lose. Other numbers are rolled and bets go to them. This number is the winning one if it appears before a 7.  The point shooter rolls a 7 prior to the point, you lose.
• Don’t Pass Line: Pass line bets are placed against the shooter’s ability to roll a 7, not against it. Don’t pass lines are bets on the shooter not rolling a point before the shooter rolls a 7. When the comeout roll is made, winning numbers two and three are automatically winners, while losing numbers seven and eleven are automatically losers. There are 12 pushes in a roll. Before the point, the shooter must roll a 7. A roll of a 7 before a point is rolled means you lose.
• Don’t Come Bet: Don’t come bets behave similarly to the comeout wager, taking into account the pass line wager terms. 2 and 3 win automatically, while 7 and 11 lose automatically. 12 pushes on a roll. When the number comes before the 7, the shooter wins. The shooter loses if his or her next roll is before a 7.
• Place Bets: An individual number may be bet on at anytime during the shooter’s round. A 7 comes before your selected number, so you win. In a shooter’s round, players have the option of increasing, decreasing or removing a place bet.
• Field Bet: The player can bet on a range of numbers when making a field bet, just like he or she can make a place bet. The roll of any 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 or 12 results in your victory. Otherwise, you lose. Self-service bets are available on this field.

When playing Craps, you roll a dice or roll multiple dice. The shooter is the person who rolls the dice. During the shooter’s turn, much of the game’s direction is determined by the initial roll or the come-out roll. The pass-line players automatically win if the shooter’s come-out roll is either 7 or 11. A pass line wager that is placed when the come-out roll is 2, 3, or 12 loses immediately. As long as the shooter matches the come-out roll, he receives a point, or it becomes the number on the next roll.
