The craps table is undoubtedly the loudest, most energetic, and most intimidating area on any casino floor.

Despite its complex appearance, the fundamental rules of the game are actually quite simple to grasp.

The Most Important Craps Bet

The absolute best way to start is by placing a simple wager on the area marked ‘Pass Line’.

If the first roll of the dice is a 7 or an 11, the entire table celebrates and you double your money.

• Betting the Pass Line means you are cheering for the same outcome as the vast majority of the table
• The camaraderie of everyone winning together is what makes craps so uniquely exciting
• Keep your strategy simple: bet the Pass Line, take maximum odds, and enjoy the show

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.

Craps is the most social game in the casino, and joining a hot table is an unforgettable experience.
