Pickup Craps – Hints and Tactics: The Background of Craps
October 19th, 2021 by Gina

Be brilliant, play smart, and pickup craps the ideal way!

Games that use dice and the dice themselves date back to the Middle Eastern Crusades, but modern craps is just about 100 years old. Modern craps evolved from the ancient Anglo game called Hazard. Nobody absolutely knows the origin of the game, however Hazard is said to have been created by the Englishman, Sir William of Tyre, sometime in the 12th century. It’s supposed that Sir William’s knights bet on Hazard amid a siege on the castle Hazarth in 1125 AD. The title Hazard was gotten from the citadel’s name.

Early French colonists imported the game Hazard to Canada. In the 18th century, when banished by the British, the French relocated down south and located safety in southern Louisiana where they at a later time became Cajuns. When they departed Acadia, they took their best-loved game, Hazard, along. The Cajuns modernized the game and made it fair mathematically. It’s believed that the Cajuns changed the title to craps, which is acquired from the term for the losing toss of 2 in the game of Hazard, recognized as "crabs."

From Louisiana, the game migrated to the Mississippi river boats and all over the country. Most think the dice maker John H. Winn as the creator of modern craps. In the early 1900s, Winn assembled the modern craps setup. He created the Don’t Pass line so gamblers can wager on the dice to lose. Later, he created the boxes for Place bets and put in place the Big 6, Big 8, and Hardways.
