A basic Craps starter offer

“I was asked about the basics of craps lately, about the kinds of bets and what not. If you’re looking for a diverse game to play, craps should do the job. I know it can be intimidating for beginners with all the different kinds of bets there are and the fast pace of the game that allows little time for questions. You can start out with the basic bet and use it for your first encounters with the game. In time you will become more experienced and add more bets to your list of bets. First of all, understand that it is a game of rounds. The first roll in a round is called the come out roll and sometimes the outcome of a round will be determined on the come out roll. Rolling a 2, 3, 7, 11 or 12 ends the round. If any other total is rolled that number is called the point. By placing a white puck on an area of the table, the dealer points out what the point is. If a point is rolled then the dice will be rolled until the same point is rolled again or a 7 is rolled. Anyway that’s a starter. It helps a lot to understand dice probability which will take you one more step further into understanding craps.”
