Craps

Craps is an exciting, fast-paced, action-packed game utilizing a pair of dice.  Here are some basics to get your started shooting craps.

Player, known as the �shooter�, throws the dice.  All wagers must be placed before the shooter throws the dice.  The types of wagers that can be made are:

PASS LINE

An even money bet, made before the �come out� roll (the first roll) you win on a natural seven or eleven, or lose on �craps� (two, three, or twelve).  Any other number rolled is your �point�, and you must throw your point again before a seven to win.

DON�T PASS LINE

Opposite of the Pass Line. You lose on natural seven or eleven on the first roll.  You win on two or three (twelve is a tie).  You lose after the first roll is the shooter makes their point.  You win after the first roll if the shooter rolls a seven before making their point.

COME BETS

Made any time after the first roll when a shooter has a point to make You win on natural seven or eleven and lose on craps (two, three or twelve).   Any number that comes up is a �come point�, and must be thrown before a seven is thrown.

DON'T COME BETS

Opposite of the come bet, except that a first roll of two or three wins, and twelve is a tie, and you lose on natural seven or eleven.

Any other number is the �come point� and you lose if the come point is made before a seven is thrown.

ODDS

Once a point is made on the first roll or a come point on a succeeding roll, you may take the odds and win if the points are made before a seven.  Payoffs are:  two-to-one on four and ten, three-to-two on five and nine, six-to-five on six and eight. �Don�t Pass� or �Don�t Come� bets are in reverse; you must lay the odds in order to win.

PLACE BETS

Once a shooter makes a point, you may make a �Place Bet� on numbers four, five, six, eight, nine, and ten.  If the shooter rolls any of these number�s before a seven, you wind the following payoffs:  nine-to-five on four and ten, seven-to-five on five and nine, and seven-to-six on six and eight.  

FIELD BETS

A one-roll bet.  You win even money on three, four, nine, ten, and eleven.  You win two-to-one on two.  You win three-to-one on twelve.  You lose on five, six, seven or eight.

PROPOSITION BETS

One-roll bets. Two or twelve pays 31 for 1.  �Any Craps� (two, three, or twelve) pay eight-for-one.  Three or eleven pays sixteen-for-one.
