To bet with the shooter, you must place your bet in an area marked ""Pass Line", before the new shooter rolls the dice. The so-called "Pass Line" is a strip on the table layout marked by two lines roughly two inches wide and it rims the entire table layout across from the Box Man. To bet against the shooter, you must place your bet in an area marked "Don’t Pass". This area is a strip on the table layout and it rims the table directly above the "Pass Line".No matter what stage the game is in, whether on the "Come Out" roll, or in progress, you can jump in immediately and place any bets. The only exception to this is the bet called the "Pass Line" bet with odds", which can be made only on the "Come Out" roll. You can, however, bet with the shooter even while the game is in progress by placing a "Pass Line" bet without odds. Placing your chips halfway over one of the two lines framing the "Pass Line" area does this.

Craps is one of the most exciting table games played in online casinos today. It is one of the few truly social games played in modern casino, and one of the few played with dice. While the game's apparent complexity and odd jargon may, at first, be intimidating you will find the game of Craps to be enjoyable and rewarding. Objective The object of Craps is to predict the outcome of a roll of the dice. Playing the Game Playing Craps can be as simple or as complicated as you choose to make it. There are an extensive array of betting options available but the player only needs to understand a few of them to play the game, have fun and win. Craps is a game of dice. The player is betting on which numbers the next roll of the dice will produce (or won't produce.) In its simplest form the player (called the shooter) will place a bet on the Pass line (or on the Don't Pass Line) and try to roll a seven or an eleven. If the shooter succeeds the bet will pay even money and the shooter can make another bet. This first roll is called the 'Come Out' roll. Should the player fail to roll a seven or eleven then a 'point' is established on the number of the value of the dice rolled. Once a point is established the shooter's object is to roll the same number again before the next seven is rolled. If a seven is rolled the shooter looses his bet. Once a point has been established the shooter can not remove his bet from the table. While the shooter is trying to make the point he can add extra bets to the table. Types of Bets The Pass BetThis is a bet that the shooter will throw a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll or, alternatively, that the shooter will make the point before the next 7 is rolled. The Don't Pass BetThis is the opposite of the pass bet. This bet is placed against the shooter and wins if Craps (2, 3 or 12) is thrown on the come-out roll or if the shooter fails to make the point. If a 12 is thrown, the bet ties. The Come BetThis bet is similar to the pass bet but cannot be made on the come-out roll. Traditionally the Come and Don't Come bets are available to allow players just joining the table to take part in the action immediately, instead of having to wait for the shooter to make or miss the point! The Don't Come BetAgain, this bet is similar to the 'Don't Pass' bet, but can not be made on the come-out roll. Odds BetThis is an additional bet made on a Pass, Don't Pass, Come or Don't Come bet that has already been placed. 'Odds' bets can only be made once the point has been established. The advantage of an Odds bet is that it is paid out at the correct odds. Win BetThis bet can be made on the following numbers: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10. It is a bet that the relevant number will be rolled BEFORE a seven is rolled. Lose BetThis bet can be made on the following numbers: 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10. It is a bet that a seven will be rolled BEFORE the relevant number comes up. Field BetThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays even money if a 3, 4, 9, 10 or 11 are rolled and pays 2 to 1 if a 2 or 12 are rolled. Hardways BetThis bet can be made on a 4, 6, 8 or 10. It is a bet that the relevant number will be rolled in its double form (i.e. 2 dice showing 4 would be HARDWAY 8) BEFORE a seven AND before that number is rolled in any other combination. Any SevenThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 5 for 1 (4 to 1) if a seven is rolled in the next throw. Any CrapsThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 8 for 1 (7 to 1) if a 2, 3 or 12 is rolled in the next throw. Craps TwoThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 30 to 1 if a 2 is rolled in the next throw. Craps TwelveThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 30 to 1 if a 12 is rolled in the next throw. Craps ThreeThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 15 to 1 if a 3 is rolled in the next throw. ElevenThis is a bet on the outcome of the next throw. It pays 15 to 1 if an 11 is rolled in the next throw. HornThis is a single roll bet on any Craps (2, 3 or 12) and 11. Odds are paid out accordingly. Big 6 and Big 8These are a bet that the appropriate number (6 or 8) will be rolled before the next seven. It pays even money. You can play Craps either for fun

Just as the come wager resembles the pass line bet, the don't come wager resembles the don't pass line wager. At any point in a game can a don't come wager be made by placing chips on the Don't Come Bar. The next dice roll immediately thereafter serves as the come-out roll for that particular wager. If the come-out roll comes up a 7 or 11, the bet loses. If it comes up a 3, the bet wins. All other numbers rolled are considered point numbers, which if rolled again before rolling a 7 or 11, will cause the don't come wager to lose. (If the point number is established, the dealer will move the wager to the corresponding box number on the craps table) Rolling a 7 or 11 before the point number is hit again, will produce a winning don't come bet.
