Craps is definitely one of the tougher casino games to learn since there are so many different bets that can be made. In all, there are about a hundred different wagers in Craps and further confusion is added with all of the different rules surrounding the dice rolls. However, online Craps has made the process of learning the game much easier since the software handles the options a player has. Once you get the hang of Craps then it is actually a very enjoyable and exciting game to play.
How to PlayOnline Craps is a game which is played in rounds and all rounds begin with a "shooter" who rolls the dice. The shooter's first roll is referred to as the "come-out" roll and the shooter will end a round if they roll a 2, 3, 7, 11, or 12. But, even if the round has ended in this situation, the same shooter will perform another come-out roll. If the shooter rolls a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, or 11 on their come-out roll then a "point" (new number which affects wagers) is established. Once the point is determined, the shooter will need to continue rolling until they throw the same point or a 7. When the same point or a 7 is rolled, the round will end and a new shooter will take over the dice rolling duties.
Craps StrategyWhile you obviously can't do anything to influence the roll of the dice in online craps, you do have an influence over betting patterns. And one betting pattern that should be followed is increasing bets while on a hot streak and gradually decreasing bets after losses. Many people believe the opposite in that you should double up a bet after a loss, but this will just increase the chance of losing your bankroll. Another important thing to do is to know all of the odds and payouts on different bets. The House enjoys a much larger advantage on some bets over others so it is always a good idea to know which ones are more favorable to you.
Craps EtiquetteIf you play online craps then you won't have to worry about following etiquette for the game, but you should still know the basics for when you're in a casino. Players should never cover the dice with both of their hands or try to conceal the dice in anyway since this looks extremely suspicious. Another thing players need to be aware of is that any roll which hits another player and goes back onto the table is considered legal as long as the player didn't intentionally touch the dice.
