Short Description:
The first roll of the dice in a Craps round is called
the "Come Out Roll". The basic opening bet in Craps,
which is placed just before the Come Out Roll, is
called the "Pass Line Bet." Pass Line Bets are instant
winners when the shooter's Come Out Roll is 7 or 11,
and lose when the Come Out Roll is 2 (Snake Eyes),
3 (Cross Eyes), or 12 (Box Cars). If 4, 5, 6, 8, 9,
or 10 are rolled on the Come Out Roll, that number
becomes "The Point". "The Puck" (a small round plastic
marker labeled "ON" in this case and "OFF" in other
cases) shows that The Point has been established,
and is located on the Craps table over the box for
the number rolled as The Point: "4, 5, six, 8, nine,
or 10".
To end a round of Craps and resolve Pass Line Bets,
the shooter must roll either the Point or 7 after
the Come Out Roll. The possibility exists for a Craps
round to continue all night, if the shooter fails
to roll the Point or a 7 before the sun rises. Pass
Line Bets cannot win until the Point is rolled, and
cannot lose until a 7 is rolled. Because unresolved
Pass Line Bets may not be removed, players must wait
for a roll of the Point or 7 to determine the outcome
of their Pass Line Bets.
The Different Bets:
Before the dice are rolled, bets can be placed in
various fields of the Craps Table. First, using your
left mouse button, click on the value of the chip
you wish to wager. Next, place the chip in the desired
betting area on the Craps Table by clicking in the
area, using your left mouse button again. Should you
wish to alter or remove a bet, click on your wagered
chips with your right mouse button. Please note that
some bets may not be removed. Once you have finish
placing your bets, click on the "ROLL" button to roll
the dice.
Pass Line Bets:
A "Pass Line Bet" is placed in the area labeled "PASS
LINE," before the Come Out Roll (i.e. the first roll
of the dice in a new Craps round). A wager on the
Pass Line wins if the Come Out Roll is 7 or 11, and
loses if 2, 3 or 12 is rolled. If 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or
10 are rolled, that number becomes "The Point." To
win a Pass Line Bet, the shooter must roll The Point
again before rolling a 7. If the shooter rolls a 7
before rolling The Point again, your Pass Line Bet
loses. A winning Pass Line Bet pays even money (1
to 1). Once The Point has been established, unresolved
Pass Line Bets may not be removed or reduced. Pass
Line Bets must be resolved by a roll of The Point
or a 7.
Don't Pass Line Bets:
A "Don't Pass Line Bet" is essentially the reverse
of a Pass Line Bet, and is placed on the Craps Table
in the "DON'T PASS BAR" area, before the Come Out
Roll. If the shooter rolls 2 or 3 on the Come Out
Roll, a Don't Pass Line Bet wins. However, if the
Come Out Roll is 7 or 11, all Don't Pass Line Bets
lose. If the Come Out Roll is 12, Don't Pass Line
Bets are returned to the player, in a Push. If the
Come Out Roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, that number
becomes The Point. Once The Point has been established,
Don't Pass Line Bet win if the shooter rolls a 7 before
rolling The Point again. If the shooter rolls The
Point again, before rolling a 7, Don't Pass Line Bets
lose. A winning Don't Pass Line Bet pays even money
(1 to 1). Unlike Pass Line Bets, unresolved Don't
Pass Line Bets may be removed or reduced. To remove
this bet click the right mouse button on the chips.
If you have placed an Odds Bet as well, a single right
button click will remove the Odds Bet, and an additional
click will remove the Don't Pass Line Bet.
Come Bets:
A "Come Bet" is placed in the "COME" bar area, before
any roll of the dice, once The Point has been established
by the Come Out Roll. The rules for Come Bets are
essentially the same as Pass Line Bets. Come Bets
win if the shooter's next roll is 7 or 11, and lose
if the roll is 2, 3, or 12. If the shooter rolls 4,
5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, that number becomes "The Come Point,"
and the dealer will move the Come Bet from the "COME"
bar to the box corresponding to the established Come
Point: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or 10". If the shooter
rolls the Come Point again, before rolling a 7, the
Come Bet pays even money. The Come Bet will stay in
place until the come point, or a 7 is rolled. Similarly
to the Pass Line Bet, unresolved Come Bets may not
be removed or reduced. They must be resolved by a
roll of the come point or a 7.
Don't Come Bets:
A "Don't Come Bet" is essentially the opposite of
a Come Bet, which is placed after the Come Out Roll
in the "DON'T COME" bar area. Don't Come Bets win
when the shooter's next roll is 2 or 3, and lose if
the roll is 7 or 11. If the shooter rolls a 12, the
bet will be returned to the player in a Push. If the
roll is 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, that number becomes
"The Come Point," and the dealer will move the Don't
Come Bet from the "Don't Come Bar" to the left corner
of the narrow, uppermost bar over the box corresponding
to the Come Point: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or 10". After
the Come Point is established, Don't Come Bets win
even money if 7 is rolled, and lose if the Come Point
is rolled. Don't Come Bets will stay in place until
the Come Point, or a 7 is rolled. However, unresolved
Don't Come Bets may be removed.
Odds Bets:
An "Odds Bet" is a "Back Up" bet on an original Pass
Line Bet, Don't Pass Line Bet, Come Bet, or Don't
Come Bet. The maximum Odds Bet is 3.6 times your original
bet on numbers 6 and 8, 4.5 times your original bet
on numbers 5 and 9 and 6 times your original bet on
numbers 4 and 10.
Pass Line Odds Bets:
After the Point has been established, a Pass Line
Odds Bet is placed by clicking the left mouse button
on the Craps Table, outside the "PASS LINE" bar, under
your original Pass Line Bet. A winning Pass Line Odds
Bet pays true odds: 2 to 1 when the point is 4 or
10, 3 to 2 when the point is 5 or 9, and 6 to 5 when
the point is 6 or 8. Unlike the original Pass Line
Bet, an unresolved Pass Line Odds Bet may be removed.
Don't Pass Line Odds Bets:
Once the Point has been established, a "Don't Pass
Line Odds Bet" is placed by clicking your left mouse
button anywhere on the "DON'T PASS BAR" area. A winning
Don't Pass Line Odds Bet pays true odds: 1 to 2 when
the point is 4 or 10, 2 to 3 when the point is 5 or
9, and 5 to 6 when the point is 6 or 8. An unresolved
Don't Pass Line Odds Bet may be removed by clicking
the right mouse button.
Come Odds Bets:
Once the Come Point has been established, a "Come
Odds Bet" is placed by clicking your left mouse button
directly under your Come Bet, within the box that
corresponds to the Come Point: "4, 5, six, 8, nine,
or 10". A winning Come Odds Bet pays true odds: 2
to 1 when the point is 4 or 10, 3 to 2 when the point
is 5 or 9, and 6 to 5 when the point is 6 or 8. Unlike
the original Come Bet, an unresolved Come Odds Bet
may be removed.
Don't Come Odds Bets:
Once the Come Point has been established, an "Odds
Bet" is placed on your "Don't Come Bet" by clicking
in the space directly under your Don't Come Bet, within
the narrow, uppermost bar. This bar is above the box
that corresponds to the Come Point: "4, 5, six, 8,
nine, or 10". A winning Don't Come Odds Bet pays true
odds: 1 to 2 when the point is 4 or 10, 2 to 3 when
the point is 5 or 9, and 5 to 6 when the point is
6 or 8. An unresolved Don't Come Odds bet may be removed.
Field Bets:
A "Field Bet" is a bet that the next roll of the dice
will be 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12. It is placed in
the "FIELD" bar area, before any roll of the dice.
If the next roll is 3, 4, 9, 10 or 11, the Field Bet
wins even money. If 2 is rolled, the Field Bet wins
2 to 1. If 12 is rolled the Field Bet wins 3 to 1.
If 5, 6, 7, or 8 is rolled, the Field Bet is lost.
Big 6 and Big 8 Bets:
A "Big 6 Bet" is a bet that 6 will be rolled before
7. Equally, a "Big 8 Bet" is a bet that 8 will be
rolled before 7. A Big 6 or a Big 8 Bet is placed
in either the "6" or "8" box, which is located in
the left corner of the craps table. A Big 6 or Big
8 Bet wins even money if the shooter rolls a 6 or
8 before rolling 7. Unresolved Big 6 and Big 8 Bets
may be removed.
Place Bets:
There are two types of place bets:
1. A "Place Win Bet" is a bet that either 4, 5, 6,
8, 9, or 10 will be rolled before a 7. A Place Win
Bet is placed in the narrow, unlabeled bar located
just under the box with the corresponding number on
the Craps Table: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or 10". Winning
Place Win Bets are paid according to the following
ratios: 7 to 6 on numbers 6 and 8, 7 to 5 on numbers
5 and 9, and 9 to 5 on numbers 4 and 10.
2. A "Place Lose Bet" is a bet that 7 will be rolled
before either 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10. A Place Lose Bet
is placed in the right-hand side of the narrow, unlabeled
bar located just above the box with the corresponding
number on the craps table: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or
10". Winning Place Lose Bets are paid according to
the following ratios: 4 to 5 on numbers 6 and 8, 5
to 8 on numbers 5 and 9, and 5 to 11 on numbers 4
and 10.
Buy Bets:
A "Buy Bet" is a bet that either 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or
10 will be rolled before 7. A Buy Bet is placed in
the box (labeled "BUY") corresponding to the number
on the Craps Table: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or 10". A
Vigorish (vig.) of 5% is charged on your profit from
this bet. Buy Bet winnings are then paid at true odds:
6 to 5 on numbers 6 and 8, 3 to 2 on numbers 5 and
9, and 2 to 1 on numbers 4 and 10.
Lay Bets:
A "Lay Bet" is essentially the reverse of a Buy Bet.
A Lay Bet is a bet that 7 will be rolled before 4,
5, 6, 8, 9, or 10. The Lay Bet is placed in the top
bar (labeled "LAY"), above the box corresponding to
the number on the Craps Table: "4, 5, six, 8, nine,
or 10". A Vigorish (vig.) of 5% is charged on your
profit from this bet. Lay Bet winnings are then paid
at true odds: 5 to 6 on numbers 6 and 8, 2 to 3 on
numbers 5 and 9, and 1 to 2 on numbers 4 and 10. Unresolved
Lay Bets may be removed.
Any 7 Bets:
An "Any 7 Bet" is a bet that the next roll of the
dice will be a 7. It is placed on any roll of the
dice, in the "SEVEN" field, on the craps table. If
7 is rolled, you win 4 times your bet.
Any Craps Bets:
An "Any Craps Bet" is a bet that the next roll of
the dice will be 2, 3, or 12. It is placed on any
roll of the dice, in the "ANY CRAPS" field on the
craps table. If 2, 3, or 12 is rolled, you win 7 times
your bet.
Horn Bets:
The "Horn Bet" is a one roll bet, by which you are
betting that 2, 3, 11 or 12 will appear on the next
roll of the dice. This bet box is placed in the center
of the "one roll" layout.
If 3 or 11 is rolled, the bet pays 3 to 1.If 2 or
12 is rolled, the bet pays 7 to 1, minus one fourth
of the bet.
For example, if you bet a $4 horn and a 2 is rolled,
you will win $4 X 7 = $28 - (1/4 of $4) $1 = $27.00.
To put it another way: Let's assume you bet $1 on
the 2, 3, 11 and 12 Prop Bets; If you win on the roll
of a 2, you will be paid $30. However, you also lost
$3 on the 2, 3, 12, and thus your net win will be
$27.
Hardway Bets:
A "Hardway Bet" is a bet that the shooter will roll
either a 4, 6, 8, or 10 as doubles (2+2, 3+3, 4+4,
or 5+5) before rolling a 7. The Hardway Bet is placed
in the box on the Craps Table containing the two illustrated
dice corresponding to the number. Rolling a number
by doubles is said to be rolling the number "The Hard
Way." For example, a roll of 4+4 is called a "Hard
8," while a roll of 5+3 or 6+2 is called an "Easy
8." A winning Hardway Bet pays 7 to 1 on numbers 4
and 10 and 9 to 1 on numbers 6 and 8. If you roll
an "Easy" before rolling a "Hard" you lose your bet.
Unresolved Hardway Bets may be removed.
