Combinations In Street Craps
A game played by one or more players against a casino is bank craps. The casino covers all player bets at a table and sets the odds on its payout. Rolling two dice players take turns. The player rolling the dice is called the "shooter". Other players make bets on the shooter's dice rolls. Rounds are played in the game. The first roll of a new round is called the "come-out roll". To begin, a player who wants to be a shooter must bet the table minimum on either the "Pass" line or the "Don't Pass" line. 5 dice are presented to the shooter by the stickman. Two of them are picked. If the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 are rolled on the come-out, this number becomes the Point and the come-out roll is now over. Rolling is continued until until either the point or a seven is rolled. The result is a win for the pass line if the shooter is successful in rolling the point. The pass line loses if a seven is rolled. Then the dice is passed (clockwise) to the next player who wishes to become the new shooter. A large number of bets for each round or each roll can be made by players. There are four casino employees in a casino craps. The chips are guarded, the dealers are supervised and the coloring out players is handled by a boxman. Bets are collected and paid by two base dealers standing to either side of the boxman. A stickman stands directly across the table from the boxman. He takes bets in the center of the table, announces the results of each roll, collects the dice with a wooden stick, and directs the base dealers to pay winners from bets in the center of the table. Each employee makes sure the other is paying out winners correctly. The dealers usually insist that the shooter roll with one hand and that the dice bounce off the far wall of the table. These requirements keep the game fair.Private craps is played outside of a casino. In street craps there is no bank to cover bets. Players bet against each other, bets are covered or faded. If using money instead of chips and depending on the laws of where it is being played, street craps can be an illegal form of gambling. There are many variations of street craps. Street craps has more simplified betting options unlike more complex proposition bets offered by casinos. To roll the dice the shooter makes a Pass or a Don't Pass bet. To continue the game another player must choose to cover the shooter. The person covering the shooter will always bet against the shooter. Once the shooter is covered, other players may make Pass or Don't Pass bets, or any other proposition bets, as long as there is another player willing to cover.
