Let’s start with a look at the craps layout, then explain the available layouts.Įach area of the craps layout signifies a different bet. That procedure can go on for any number of rolls.

If he doesn’t, he “sevens out,” and the dice rotate to a new shooterĬraps can be as simple as betting on one number and either winning or losing on each roll, or as complex as making a bet, waiting until the shooter rolls a target, or “point” number, then hoping the shooter can roll the same number again.

If the shooter makes his point, he keeps rolling with a new comeout.

If the shooter rolls a point number on the comeout, he keeps rolling until either he rolls the same number again to win an even-money payoff, or rolls a 7 to lose.

Pass bettors win if the roll is 7 or 11 and lose if it is 2, 3 or 12.

The pass sequence starts with a comeout roll and the shooter rolls the dice.

Some other bets require that the dealer move your chips.

Players bet by placing chips on the pass line on the craps layout.

Craps has dozens of wagers available, but the game is structured around the pass line bet.
