How to Play Craps- Part 2
Whatever number the shooter first rolls becomes the “point” and this is what the dealer calls the “point number.” If the shooter ends up getting the point number then the pass line betters win. If the shooter ends up getting a seven though, then the pass line ends up losing and that round is over. That is called a “seven out”. Once that happens, there is a new shooter and a new game starts. If the shooter doesn’t make his point, then the next player gets the chance to make their come out roll and the game continues. The dice are thrown down the table—which is why the craps table is so long—and it is separated into three different sections. There are two sections on the sides and then one center area. Every side has a “pass” and “don’t pass”, a don’t come out bet, place bet, odds bet and the field. The proposition bet area is in the center of the craps table. People who make the pass bets will win when the come-out roll is a seven or an eleven but pass bets lose when the come out is a two, three or a twelve. It may take some doing to learn the rules of the game, so a lot of players start their craps careers by taking the watch position. They just sit back and get to know the game before they jump in and start throwing the dice.
Overall craps is one of the most animated games in a land-based casino. If you love gaming then you would do well to try the craps table. It may take some time though to learn the various bets and the rules. It isn’t a simple game to learn, but once you do get the hang of it, it can be one of the most fun games to play. If you are looking for a game that lets you get into it and play loudly, then craps could be the perfect game for you to enjoy. Almost every casino has a featured craps table, so be sure to stop by and test your luck at the game.
