Craps looks like a hard game to master. However, while the game does look complex and has its own Craps lingo such as 'hard ways', 'boxcars' and 'horn bet' it really is an easy online casino game to grasp. The 'shooter' throws a pair of dice. Oh, I forgot to mention, the shooter is the current player. The other Craps players place bets. The initial throw in a Craps game is the Come Out Roll. To win, throw a 2, 3, 7, 11 or 12. A throw of 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 is called a Point you roll again.
Winning/losing plays
Pass Bets and Don't Bets - roll a 7 or 11 on a Come Out bet (first bet) to win. A roll of 2, 3 or 12 loses. On the second roll, a 2 or 3 wins and a roll of 7 or 11 loses.
Don't Bets Tie , when a 12 is rolled the dice again.
