Craps is an exciting, fast paced dice game where two dice are thrown along the length of the game table so they bounce against the back wall. The aim is to bet on the resulting numbers on the dice. Turns are taken by each player, or Shooter to throw the dice, in a clockwise direction around the table. Craps has three different types of bet to make. Don't be intimidated by the choice here, once you start playing you'll quickly catch on and understand the appeal of one of the most nail biting of all casino games.

Pass Line Bet
When you bet on the 'Pass Line', if the first throw (the 'Come Out Roll') is a 7 or an 11 you win and you lose if it is 2, 3 or 12 (known as Craps). If a differnt number comes up, it becomes the Point. To win you must roll the same number again before a 7 comes up. If you roll a 7 before the number comes up, you lose.

Don't Pass Line Bet
A Don't Pass Line bet wins if the roll is a 2, 3 or 12 and loses if it is 7 or 11. If a point comes up on the first roll then you need a 7 to come up before the point in order to win.

Come Bet
The Come Bet is the same as a Pass Line bet but here you can set your own point. After you have placed your bet, your first roll is your personal come point. In order to win you now need to roll this value before you roll a 7. If the first roll is a 7 or an 11you win, but if it is a 2, 3 or 12 you lose.

Don't Come Bet
As you would expect now the same rules apply as for a Don't Pass bet and it is the opposite of a Come Bet. After the bet has been placed the come point is set on the first roll and a 7 must be rolled before the point is rolled again. If a 2 or 3 is rolled on the first roll you win and therefore a 7 or 11 means you lose.

Betting with Odds
You can place odds or the bet you make to increase you pay out. You must make the pass line bet before the come out roll and then place your odds bet after the point has been shown.
