What is Craps?

Craps is a dice game in which the players make wagers on the outcome of the roll, or a series of rolls, of a pair of dice. Craps, dice game, possibly the world’s most common gambling game with dice. The version known as bank craps, casino craps, or Las Vegas–style craps is played in virtually all American casinos and also in some British, Australian, and Asian casinos and gambling houses. Players may wager money against each other or a bank. Because it requires little equipment, "street craps" can be played in informal settings. While shooting craps, players may use slang terminology to place bets and actions. One player, known as the “shooter,” throws the dice. All wagers must be placed before the shooter throws the dice.  Casino Craps, a dice game, is one of the most exciting casino games. It is common to hear yelling and shouting at a craps table. It is played on a purpose-built table and two dice are used. The dice are made after very strict standards and are routinely inspected for any damage. As a matter of course, the dice are replaced with new ones after about eight hours of use, and casinos have implemented rules in the way a player handles them. A special table and layout are used, and all bets are made against the house. A player signifies his bet by placing chips or cash on the appropriate part of the layout before any roll. It is invariably required that the dice be thrown so that they strike a wall of the table and bounce back.

Rules

• 3-4-5X odds are allowed.
• To simplify the game, instead of offering both place and buy bets, I offer just one for each number. Each number pays the better odds between place and buy bets. I refer to these as "buy bets." They pay 7-6 on the 6 & 8, 7-5 on the 5 & 9, and 39-20 on the 4 & 10.
• Lay bets pay true odds, but player must prepay a 5% commission, based on the possible win. This works out to odds of 19-25 on the 6 & 8, 19-31 on the 5 & 9, and 19-41 on the 4 & 10.
• If the player selects "keep bets working," then all bets will be on for come out rolls. Otherwise, buy, hard ways, and odds on come bets will be turned off.
• If the player selects "leave winnings bets up," then only wins will be returned and the original wager will be re-bet. However, winning come and don't come bets are always returned. Winnings odds bets on come bets will remain up if there is a new come bet to associate them with. If the new come bet is less than the winning one, the amount of odds on the table will be the same multiple bet on the odds of the winning bet and the rest returned to the player.
• Bets may be taken down by shift-clicking.
• Put bets and taking down don't pass and don't come bets, that are already on a number, are not allowed. 고스톱
