Casino craps system

The game of craps is really fun and exciting, but it’s not as easy as it seems to be at first. Here is one of the many casino craps systems I heard about that actually works: it is called No 4 or No 10: You can make this bet and take it down anytime. You can bet both the 4 and 10 at the same time. You are laying the odds ( say $40 ) that a 7 will be thrown before a 4 or 10.

You put down $41 ( 5% on a $20 win is $1 ) and the dealer will put your money in the don’t come box above the 4. Now you hope a 7 is thrown before a 4. A win will pay $20. I like to make this bet after a 4 or 10 is thrown. I also follow how often the 4 and 10 are being thrown at the tables. If a lot of 4’s are coming up, I’ll favor the 10. This bet can be hedged with a bet on the hard 4 or 10. The downside to this bet is that you are risking twice as much money as you’ll win. This method is very good in the casino craps. If you’re still confused then it can’t heart to use the online casino preview instructions.

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.”

Craps History

There is more than one theory about the true craps history.

By one theory, in ancient times rolling of bones was done to worship the gods, and that formed this evolved both dice and various dice games including the popular Craps, or in our days online craps.

Another theory has the game evolving from an early Arab game passed through England, France and North America, this game called backgammon.

On one thing about craps all historians seem to agree, Craps was brought over to North America from Europe in the early 1700's. The game was first played on riverboats across the United States and then moved west with the frontier as the country grew and developed.

There are two general types of Craps played in our days - "Street Craps" and "Bank Craps". Street Craps is the variety you would find being played in informal settings. The betting is simplified, and someone must cover the bet in order for the game to progress. Bank Craps on the other hand is the form played in casinos and also in online casinos. The betting is more complicated and the house covers the bets or banks the game, so the players are in effect playing against the house.
