Craps Game Introduction
Surprisingly, craps
experts/historians tend to have a different version of the origin of the
craps game. Despite the differences, most will agree that the game of
craps evolved from the English game called Hazard.
Further digging into
craps game history will show that a dice maker named John H. Winn is
credited with having revolutionized the craps game. He added a twist to
the game which made it possible for players to bet for or against the
shooter.
This simple twist
points to a fact that most craps players, and many casino craps employees
are not aware of, or totally overlook. More on this shortly...
The object of the
craps game is simple. There are players and there is one shooter. The
shooter rolls the dice and tries to hold onto them as long as possible.
The shooter and players can either bet on the Pass Line or the Don’t Pass
Line.
The Pass Line bet
wins when the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the first roll of the dice, or
come out roll. In addition, the Pass Line bet wins whenever the shooter
establishes a point number on the come out roll and rolls the same number
again, before rolling a 7. There are six point numbers: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 and
10.
As long as the
shooter makes a point number win, the shooter will continue to hold the
dice. The shooter's turn is over when the shooter rolls a 7 before rolling
their established point number a second time. The dice will then pass to
the next player that wishes to roll the dice.
Usually, there are
four casino employees at the table. The boxman (sits in the middle,
oversees the table, handles cash), two dealers (stand on either side of
the boxman, place bets, collects losses and pays winners), one stickman
(stands opposite the boxman, controls movement of the dice, makes specific
bets in center of table, announces results of the dice roll).
The craps game table
layout has many betting options and there are some betting options that
are not shown on the table called proposition bets. These numerous betting
options along with the different odds on all the bets in a craps game
cause the most confusion and intimidation.
Here is what you
need to know: ignore the numerous betting options and the odds. Why? These
bets offer variety, but the odds are terrible in most cases. That type of
distraction is available by design ... but it is not to help you win
money. In the end, these distractions will guarantee you lose ... so, once
again, ignore them. Problem solved; no more confusion or intimidation.
Remember when I
mentioned that players can bet for or against the shooter? Here is the key
to understanding how to win at the craps game: If you can bet for or
against the shooter, are you really betting against the casino or against
other players? If you answered against other players you are right.
This fact shows that
the craps game makes it possible for everyone to win sometimes and lose
sometimes. Learn to win more by betting for the shooters that are winning
and against the shooters that are losing. Master this, and you will always
walk away from the craps game a winner.
Now that you
understand how the craps game came to be, what the true object of the game
is, why there is so much confusion about the game, who your real
competition is and finally, a sure way to always win...
Make sure you use
this information to play the craps game with confidence.
