Craps is a fun and exciting dice game typically played in casinos. The basic idea is to bet on the outcome of the roll, or a series of rolls, of a pair of dice. Here’s a quick rundown of how to play:
1. **The Come-Out Roll**: The game starts with the come-out roll. If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11, it's a win (called a "natural"). If they roll a 2, 3, or 12, it's a loss (called "craps"). Any other number rolled becomes the "point."
2. **Establishing the Point**: If a point is established, the shooter continues to roll the dice. The goal now is to roll the point number again before rolling a 7.
3. **Winning and Losing**: If the shooter rolls the point number again before rolling a 7, everyone who bet on the pass line wins. If a 7 is rolled before the point number, the pass line bets lose, and the round is over.
There are many different types of bets you can place in craps, each with its own rules and payouts. Some common ones include:
- **Pass Line Bet**: Betting that the shooter will win.
- **Don't Pass Line Bet**: Betting against the shooter.
- **Come Bet**: Similar to the pass line bet but made after the point is established.
- **Don't Come Bet**: Similar to the don't pass line bet but made after the point is established.
