junioA Beginner's Guide to Playing Casino Craps
The craps table is undoubtedly the loudest, most energetic, and most intimidating area on any casino floor.

You do not need to memorize every single bet on the board to have a fantastic time playing craps.
Understanding the Pass Line Bet
The absolute best way to start is by placing a simple wager on the area marked 'Pass Line'.
On the very first roll (the Come Out roll), your Pass Line bet wins instantly if the shooter throws a 7 or 11.
- If any other number is rolled (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10), that number becomes the 'Point'
- Once the point is established, the shooter must roll that exact number again before rolling a 7 to win
- If a 7 rolls before the point, the game ends, everyone loses, and the dice pass to the next player
How to Avoid Angering the Dealers and Players
Craps has a lot of superstition and physical movement, meaning there are several unwritten rules you must obey.
Always buy your chips when the dice are in the center of the table, never while the shooter is preparing to throw.
| Behavior | Reasoning | Action to Take |
|---|---|---|
| Throwing the dice | They must hit the back wall to be random | Toss them smoothly, don't lob them high |
| Buying in | The game moves very fast | Wait for a pause in the action to drop cash |
Craps is the most social game in the casino, and joining a hot table is an unforgettable experience.
