Principles Of Private Craps
Bank craps is played by one or more players against a casino. The casino covers all player bets at a table and sets the odds on its payout. Players take turns rolling two dice. The dice are rolled by the "shooter". Other players at the table will 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. The come-out roll is over if the numbers 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 are rolled, and they become the Point. The shooter continues until he rolls either the point or a seven. If the shooter is successful in rolling the point, the result is a win for the pass line. If a seven is rolled the pass line loses. Then the next player (clockwise) becomes the shooter. For each round or each roll players can make a large number of bets. In a casino craps there are four employees. The chips are guarded, the dealers are supervised and the coloring out players is handled by a boxman. Two base dealers stand to either side of the boxman and collect and pay bets. A stickman stands directly across the table from the boxman. The bets are taken, the results of each roll are announced, the dice are collected and the dealers are directed to pay winners by him. Each employee makes sure winners are paid out correctly. The dealers insist that the dice must be rolled with one hand and bounced off the far wall of the table. These requirements keep the game fair.Private craps is played outside of a casino. There is no bank in street craps and in bank craps there is one. Players must bet against each other by covering or fading each other's bets for the game to be played. Depending on the laws and usage of money instead of chips street craps can be illegal. Street craps has many variations. Street craps has more simplified betting options unlike more complex proposition bets offered by casinos. If the shooter wants to roll the dice he is required to make either 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.
