dice game where players make wagers on the outcome of the roll, or a series of rolls, of a pair of dice. It is known for its fast pace and the wide variety of betting options available to players. The game is often seen as a communal activity in casinos, with players rooting for or against the roller, also known as the &#8220;shooter.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_of_Craps\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">History of Craps<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Curious about what are craps? Craps has a rich history that dates back to medieval England. The game evolved from a similar game called &#8220;Hazard,&#8221; and was later brought to America by French colonists. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over time, it became popular in the United States, particularly during World War II, when soldiers played the game to pass the time. Today, craps is a staple in casinos around the world, both in land-based and online formats.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Craps_Table_A_Quick_Tour\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Craps Table: A Quick Tour<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The craps table might look intimidating at first, but understanding its layout is key to enjoying the game. The table is divided into three main sections:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pass Line and Don\u2019t Pass Line: These are the most basic bets in craps. The Pass Line bet wins if the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll and loses if they roll a 2, 3, or 12. The Don\u2019t Pass Line bet is the opposite.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Come and Don\u2019t Come Bets: Similar to the Pass and Don\u2019t Pass bets but can be placed after the come-out roll.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proposition Bets: Located in the center of the table, these are one-roll bets with high payouts but also high house edges.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding these sections will help you place your bets confidently.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1530\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1530\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1530\" src=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-1.jpg\" alt=\"Learn how to play Craps Game\" width=\"600\" height=\"339\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-1.jpg?v=1719481035 600w, https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-1-300x170.jpg?v=1719481035 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1530\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Learn how to play Craps Game<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Craps_Terminology_Learn_the_Lingo\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Craps Terminology: Learn the Lingo<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Craps has its own unique language.

The shooter then makes the come-out roll.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2: Come-Out Roll<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the roll is a 7 or 11 (a natural), Pass Line bets win.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the roll is a 2, 3, or 12 (craps), Pass Line bets lose.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any other number becomes the &#8220;point.&#8221;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Step 3: Establish the Point<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The shooter continues to roll the dice until they roll the point number again (resulting in a win for Pass Line bets) or a 7 (resulting in a loss for Pass Line bets).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4: Additional Bets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Players can place additional bets, such as Come bets, after the point is established. These follow similar rules to the Pass Line bet but can be placed at any time.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Popular_Craps_Betting_Strategies\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Popular Craps Betting Strategies<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Craps is a game of chance, but employing certain betting strategies can help players manage their bets and potentially improve their outcomes. To get a better understanding of what are craps and how to play effectively, here are three popular betting strategies:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Pass_Line_Strategy\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Pass Line Strategy<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Pass Line Strategy is the most straightforward and recommended approach for beginners who are just learning what is craps game. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you place a bet on the Pass Line, you are betting that the shooter will win. If the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll, you win. If the shooter rolls a 2, 3, or 12, you lose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If any other number is rolled, that number becomes the point. Your goal is to support the shooter to roll the point number again before a 7 is rolled. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To enhance this strategy, once a point is established, you can place odds bets behind your original Pass Line bet. This additional bet called the &#8220;odds bet,&#8221; has no house edge, which increases your potential winnings.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1531\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1531\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1531 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-7.jpg\" alt=\"Pass Line Strategy\" width=\"600\" height=\"321\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-7.jpg?v=1719481697 600w, https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-7-300x161.jpg?v=1719481697 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1531\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pass Line Strategy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Dont_Pass_Strategy\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Don\u2019t Pass Strategy<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Don\u2019t Pass Strategy is essentially the opposite of the Pass Line Strategy, involving betting against the shooter. When you place a bet on the Don\u2019t Pass Line, you are betting that the shooter will lose. If the shooter rolls a 2 or 3 on the come-out roll, you win. A roll of 7 or 11 results in a loss, and a roll of 12 is a push.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any other number rolled becomes the point, and you are betting that a 7 will be rolled before the point number is rolled again. Although this strategy is less popular among players due to its contrary nature, it offers a lower house edge, making it a viable option for those looking to maximize their chances over the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_3-Point_Molly\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 3-Point Molly<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 3-Point Molly Strategy is a more advanced approach that involves a combination of Pass Line bets and Come bets, allowing for multiple opportunities to win. If you&#8217;re wondering what are craps and looking to deepen your understanding, this strategy can be a game-changer.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1535\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1535\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1535 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-5.jpg\" alt=\"3 Point Molly Strategy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-5.jpg?v=1719481704 600w, https:\/\/hunnyplay.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/what-are-craps-5-300x169.jpg?v=1719481704 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1535\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">3 Point Molly Strategy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To start, you place a bet on the Pass Line. Once a point is established, you back your Pass Line bet with an odds bet. Next, you place a Come bet. If the Come bet wins on the next roll (a 7 or 11), you win and place another Come bet.
