Craps Come-Out Roll How do you behave at the craps table? Besides the rules of the game itself, there are unwritten rules of craps etiquette. Craps players stick to a certain etiquette. A bet is placed while the dice are in the middle of the table.Have it clear in your mind what bets to place. Players handle the dice with one hand. To put the dice on the table, let go, then take them with the other hand is the only way to change hands. The opposite end of the table should be hit with the dice when they are thrown. A "no roll" is a more controllable short roll. It is also a "no roll" if a die or both dice leave the table. Dealers aren't allowed to touch the players or hand chips directly to a player, and vice versa. The dealer takes the cash laid down on the layout and places chips in front of the player. The casino can ask a player to leave the table or the casino for any reason. Without fear of offending anyone a player may pass the dice to the next player when offered the dice to shoot. A shooter must be one of the players. He should bet on either the pass line or don't pass line to continue the game. Do tip the dealers. Dealers in the US don't get paid that much. Tossing chips onto the table and saying "For the dealers" or "For the boys" is the most common way of tipping. A bet is also commonly put for the dealer. A two-way bet is partly for the player and partly for the dealers. Usually, the dealers' bet is smaller than the player's bet, but it is appreciated. It is considered bad luck to change dice in the middle of a roll. The shooter calls "Same Dice!" if he doesn't want a new die. Food, drinks, cigarettes, and other things shouldn't be held over the table and should remain off the chip rail. Players feel it is bad luck to leave the table after a successful come-out roll. Players' hands should be removed from the table area when the shooter is ready to roll. The stickman often says: "hands high, let 'em fly" or "dice are out, hands high". Coloring up is done only when the player leaves the table. It is permitted to color up and then decide to stay for one more round. But it is impolite to color up multiple times while at the same table.There have been a lot of attempts to beat the house, but no ne of them has worked for a long period of time. However your long run craps strategy will help improve your play, hence reducing the overall exposure to the house edge making it possible for your craps strategy to work. But nothing and nobody can guarantee you that this very strategy will work because still any casino game is a pure game of chance. But there are some viewpoints about the game which are worth knowing and remembering.
