Dice Game When To Color Up
What are the rules of behaviour at the craps table? Besides the rules of the game itself, there are unwritten rules of craps etiquette. A certain etiquette is sticked to by the players. Place your bet while the dice are in the middle of the table.Before you make a bet have it clear in your mind what bets you are going to place. Players handle the dice with one hand. To change hands you put the dice on the table, let go, then take them with the other hand. The player should hit the wall at the opposite end of the table throwing the dice. A more controllable short roll is called a "no roll". A die or both that left the table are also "no roll". Deales aren't allowed to hand chips directly to a player and touch the players. Players should lay the cash down on the layout, the dealer will take it and then place chips in front of the player. Like any other table game, the casino can ask a player to leave the table or the casino for any reason. A player may pass the dice to the next player when offered the dice to shoot. One player must always be a shooter. He should bet on either the pass line or don't pass line to continue the game. Tip the dealers. In the US dealers aren't paid much. The most common way of tipping is to toss chips onto the table and say, "For the dealers" or "For the boys". It is also common to place a bet for the dealers. A two-way bet is partly for the player and partly for the dealers. The the dealers' bet is appreciated, but usually it is smaller than the player's. To change dice in the middle of a roll is considered bad luck. If the shooter doesn't want a new die he immediately and loudly calls "Same Dice!". Food, drinks, cigarettes, and other things should remain off the chip rail and shouldn't be held over the table. Players feel it is bad luck to leave the table after a successful come-out roll. When the shooter is ready to roll, players should remove their hands from the table area to avoid interfering with the dice. It is often said by the stickman: "hands high, let 'em fly" or "dice are out, hands high". Coloring up is done only when the player leaves the table. To color up and then decide to stay for one more round is generally permissible. But to color up multiple times while at the same table is impolite.
There are several bets in Craps.
There are several line bets in the game of Craps.
If you want to make a line bet, you place your money on the area of the table that says "Pass Line" or "Don't Pass". Here Pass Line and Don’t Pass line bets are available.

You can bet an additional amount up to the amount of your line bet. This bet is called an odds bet. Odds bets are different in different casinos. In some casinos the odds bet amount is the amount equal to the line bet amount or lower. Some casinos allow making odds bets of two, three or even more times the amount of the line bet. The odds bet is paid at a rate equal to the odds of that point number being made before a 7 is rolled. The area for placing odds bets is behind pass line bets.
