How to Win at Craps
September 24, 2021Craps is one of the most exciting casino games.
Craps is a game in which players roll two dice in order to generate a number. Dice are thrown by the player, in turn, and then laid on the craps table. The player will then be paid out based on what that number would have been had it been rolled again.
Players can also place bets on specific numbers by making “pass” or “don’t pass” bets at specific odds for them to be hit before any other number is hit, or they can bet on “coming out” rolls with various payouts.

Craps is a dice game that can be played by two or more people who roll dice and make bets on the outcome.
It has been played in North America since the early 19th century.
The name “craps” is a variant of the word “crabs”. The name originates from a late-18th century practice of using crabs as a “gambling device”, wherein one person would hide crabs under cloth, and others would bet on where they might crawl next.
