Craps a casino dice game, played in rounds, in which players make bets on the shooter’s rolls. Each round is played in the following manner:

• The player rolling the dice is the shooter and places a bet on the Pass line or the Don’t Pass line.
• The player rolls the first roll which is known as the come-out roll. If the roll is a 2, 3 or 12 it is called craps and the pass line bets have lost. If the roll is 7 or 11, it is called a natural and the pass line bets win. If the roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10, this number becomes the “point”.
• The dealer will move the On button to the point number to identify it to all the players at the table
• The shooter continues rolling until either the point or a seven is rolled. If the shooter rolls the point before a seven is rolled, the bets on the pass line win but if a seven is rolled before the point, the bets on the pass line lose and the round is ended.

Players betting on the Don’t Pass line win when the Pass line bettors lose. On the come out roll, a 2 or 3 is a win for Don’t Pass bets and a 7 or 11 is a loss. If the point is rolled before a seven, the Don’t Pass bets loss but if a seven is rolled before the point, the Don’t Pass bets win.

Additional types of bets can be made during each round:

Come bet – this bet is similar to the pass line bet but is placed after the point is established. On the first roll after the bet, if a 7 or 11 is rolled, it wins and if a 2,3 or 12 is rolled, it loses. If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 is rolled, the come bet will be moved on the number that was rolled. If the come bet is rolled before a 7, it is a win but if a 7 is rolled before the come bet number, the bet loses.

Don’t come bet – like the don’t pass line, the bet is on the opposite of the come bet and is similar to the Don’t Pass line bet. A 2 or 3 on the first roll is a win and a 7 or 11 is a loss. If the roll is a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10, the don’t come bet is move onto the number that was rolled. This bet wins if a 7 is rolled before the don’t come number.

Single roll bets – these bets can be placed any time and are bets on the specific outcome of the next roll.

Multi-roll bets – these bets usually take multiple rolls and are based on the shooter throwing one type of roll before another one. For example, a “Hard Way” bet is a bet that a 4, 6, 8 or 10 will be thrown the hard way before a seven or the corresponding easy way. (Hard way refers to a roll in which both dice show the same number)
