Craps Guide - Online Craps Guide

The prediction of future events has occupied the greatest minds of people for many decades. The Roman gladiators were not different in this sense and have frequently been engaged in various types of predictions, though conspicuously they excelled in one particular type, the dice rolls. Craps, seems to bring a valid evidence that though human race has undoubtedly undergone great many changes, still few basic characteristics are so deeply engraved within us that it'll take many more decades, if at all, till it'll be totally erased. Our contemporaries still elicit positive brain waves once the anticipated result has been fully displayed in reality. Craps is a great game to challenge your predicting abilities. The goal is to predict correctly will or will not the shooter be able to roll a winning combination with a pair of six-sided dice.

Craps Guide - Types of Bets
There are several types of bets that can be placed on the craps table:

The Pass line Bet This is the most popular bet at the Craps Table. A wager on the Pass Line wins if the first roll of the dice (the Come Out Roll) is a 7 or 11 and loses if a 2, 3 or 12 is rolled first. If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 is rolled, that number becomes the Point. To win the bet, the player (or shooter) must repeat the Point before a 7 is rolled. If the Shooter rolls a 7 before the Point is repeated, the Pass Line bet loses. A winning bet is paid even money. Once the point has been established, this bet may not be removed or altered.

The Don't Pass Bet This bet is the opposite of the Pass Line bet. This bet wins if the shooter rolls a 2 or 3 on the Come Out roll and loses immediately if a 7 or 11 is rolled on the Come Out. If a 12 is rolled, it's a tie and play continues. Once the point has been established, this bet wins if the shooter rolls a 7 before the point is repeated 

The Come Bet Come Bets may be wagered after the point has been established on the Come Out roll. The rules for this bet are the same as the Pass Line bet. If the shooter rolls a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 after a Come Bet has been placed, the dealer will move the Come Bet from the Come area to the corresponding box for that particular number. Just as with the Pass Line bet, this wager may not be reduced or removed until play is completed. A winning wager is paid even money. 

The Don't Come Bet This bet is the opposite of the Come Bet. It may be wagered any time after the point has been established on the Come Out Roll. If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 is rolled after a Don't Come Bet has been placed, the dealer will move the wager from the Don't Come area to the corresponding box for that particular number. The rules for winning are the same as the Don't Pass Bet. A winning wager is paid even money. 

Odds Bet This is an additional bet made on a Pass, Don't Pass, Come or Don't Come Bet that has already been placed. Odds bets can only be made once the point has been established. The advantage of an odds bet is that it is paid out at the correct odds. 

Win Bet Place Bets to Win can be made at any time on numbers 4,5,6,8,9,or 10. Shooter wins if the place number is rolled before a 7; otherwise it loses. 

Lose Bet Is opposite to a place bet to Win. Shooter wins if 7 is rolled before the place number; otherwise, if the Place number is rolled first, the shooter loses. 

Field Bet This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays even money if a 3,4,9,10 or 11 is thrown and double if a 2 or 12 is thrown. 

Hardways Bet Whenever a shooter rolls doubles and the outcome is a 4, 6, 8 or 10 the shooter is said to have hit the number the "hard way," that is, by rolling doubles. If any of these same numbers are rolled and the outcome is not doubles, the shooter is said to have hit the number the "easy way." Example: If the shooter rolls a pair of 4's he has a Hard 8, or 8 the Hardway; if the shooter rolls a 6 and 2 he has an 8 the Easy Way. A Hard 10 would be a pair of 5's, while 10 the "easy way" would be a 6 and 4.

Possible Hardway bets are 4, 6, 8 or 10. A Hardway bet wins when the shooter rolls a number the Hardway. A Hardway Bet loses if the shooter rolls a number the Easy Way or if the shooter rolls a 7. 

Any Seven This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 5 for 1 (4 to 1) if a seven is made in the next throw. 

Any Craps This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 8 for 1 (7 to 1) if a 2, 3 or 12 is made in the next throw. 

Craps Two This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 30 to 1 if a 2 is made in the next throw. 

Craps Twelve This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 30 to 1 if a 12 is made in the next throw. 

Craps Three This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 15 to 1 if a 3 is made in the next throw. 

Eleven This is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 15 to 1 if an 11 is made in the next throw. 

Horn This is a single roll bet on any craps (2,3 or 12) and 11. Odds are paid out accordingly.
