Craps is a fast-paced dice game popular in casinos, known for its excitement and high energy. The game revolves around betting on the outcome of the roll of two dice, with players gathered around a specially designed table. The main player, known as the "shooter," rolls the dice, while others place bets on the result.
The game starts with a "come-out" roll, where the shooter aims to roll a 7 or 11 (known as a "natural") to win, or avoid rolling a 2, 3, or 12 (known as "craps") to avoid losing. If the shooter rolls a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, that number becomes the "point," and the goal shifts to rolling the point number again before rolling a 7.
Craps offers a wide range of betting options, allowing players to wager on specific numbers, the probability of a roll being even or odd, and more. With players cheering on the shooter and the rapid pace of play, craps creates a lively atmosphere that’s as engaging for new players as it is for seasoned veterans. The combination of luck, strategic betting options, and communal excitement makes craps a standout choice in casinos around the world.
