The game of craps is played with two ordinary dice that are thrown the length of the table and must bounce off the far wall. The wins and losses depend upon the value of the dice when they land. Each player is given a turn to throw the dice or become the shooter with the dice going clock-wise around the table. The shooter makes their first roll which is called a come out roll the shooter then keeps throwing the dice until he fails to make a winning throw known as 'not making point' the dice are then passed on to the new shooter and a new game begins.

According to Richard Epstein, craps is descended from an earlier game known as Hazard, that dates to the Middle Ages. The formal rules for Hazard were established by Montmort early in the 1700s. The origin of the name craps is shrouded in doubt, but it may have come from the English crabs, or from the French Crapeaud (for toad)
