Craps
Overview
Craps is a dice game where players bet on the outcome of the roll of two dice. It is one of the most popular casino table games.
How to Play
Come Out Roll
The game begins with the come out roll. The shooter rolls two dice:
- 7 or 11 → Pass Line bets win (Natural)
- 2, 3, or 12 → Pass Line bets lose (Craps)
- 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 → That number becomes the Point
Point Phase
Once a point is established, the shooter continues rolling:
- Roll the Point number → Pass Line bets win (Point Hit)
- Roll a 7 → Pass Line bets lose (Seven Out), shooter rotates
