Players at a Craps Game
Jun 21st, 2018 by Gina

If you are seeking thrills, noise and more entertainment than you might be able to bear, then craps is the only casino game to enjoy.

Craps is a fast-paced gambling game with high-rollers, low-rollers, and everybody in between. If you’re a people-watcher this is one casino game that you will absolutely enjoy observing. There is the high roller, gambling with a huge amount of money and making boisterous proclamations when she bets across the board, "520 dollars across," you will hear her say. He’s the bettor to watch at this game and they know it. They will either win big-time or lose big-time and there is no in between.

There’s the low-roller, most likely trying to acquaint himself with the whales. He will tell the other competitors of books he’s read through on dice tossing and hang around the most accomplished shooter at the table, ready to confer and "pick each others minds".

There is the devotee of Frank Scoblete most recent craps class. Although Frank is the very best there is, his student will have to do his homework. This guy will take 5 mins to setup his dice, so practice patience.

My preferred players at the table are the real gents from the good old times. These elderly gents are generally patient, almost always kind and will almost always offer tips from the "good old days."

When you take the chance and make a choice to participate in the game, be certain you use appropriate etiquette. Find a position on the rail and lay your money down in front of you in the "come" spot. Never do this when the dice are being tossed or you’ll be referred to as the final personality I wished to talk about, the jerk.

Learn to Play Craps – Tricks and Techniques: The Background of Craps

Be brilliant, play smart, and discover how to play craps the ideal way!

Games that use dice and the dice themselves goes back to the Crusades, but current craps is approximately one hundred years old. Modern craps come about from the 12th Century English game called Hazard. No one knows for certain the ancestry of the game, but Hazard is believed to have been made up by the Anglo, Sir William of Tyre, in the twelfth century. It’s theorized that Sir William’s knights gambled on Hazard through a siege on the citadel Hazarth in 1125 AD. The title Hazard was acquired from the fortification’s name.

Early French settlers brought the game Hazard to Nova Scotia. In the 18th century, when banished by the British, the French moved south and settled in the south of Louisiana where they after a while became Cajuns. When they left Acadia, they took their favorite game, Hazard, along. The Cajuns streamlined the game and made it mathematically fair. It is said that the Cajuns changed the name to craps, which is derived from the term for the losing throw of 2 in the game of Hazard, known as "crabs."

From Louisiana, the game extended to the Mississippi scows and all over the country. Many consider the dice builder John H. Winn as the founder of modern craps. In the early 1900s, Winn developed the current craps layout. He appended the Do not Pass line so players can wager on the dice to not win. At another time, he designed the boxes for Place bets and added the Big 6, Big 8, and Hardways.
