Rules Of Private Craps
Bank craps is a game played by one or more players against a casino. All players' bets are covered and the odds on the payout are set by the casino. Players take turns rolling two dice. The "shooter" rolls the dice. Bets on the shooter's dice rolls are made by other players. Rounds are played in the game. The "come-out roll" is the first roll of a new round. A player who wants to be a shooter must bet the table minimum on either the "Pass" line or the "Don't Pass" line. The shooter is then presented with five dice 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. 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. If the shooter rolls a seven, the pass line loses. Then the dice is passed (clockwise) to the next player who wishes to become the new shooter. Players can make a large number of bets for each round or each roll. A casino craps requires four casino employees. A boxman guards the chips, supervises the dealers and handles coloring out players. Bets are collected and paid by two base dealers standing to either side of the boxman. Across the table from the boxman a stickman stands. 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 the other is paying out winners correctly. The dealers insist that the dice must be rolled with one hand and bounced off the far wall of the table. These requirements help to keep the game fair.Street craps is recreational playing of craps outside of a casino. The difference between street and bank craps is that there is no bank in street craps. For the game to be played players' bets against each other are covered or faded. If money is used instead of chips street craps is an illegal form of gambling. Street craps has many variations. Unlike more complex proposition bets offered by casinos, street craps has more simplified betting options. The shooter is required to make either a Pass or a Don't Pass bet if he wants to roll the dice. Another player must cover the shooter's stake to continue the game. 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.
