Craps is an easy casino game to learn, and once you've got to grips with the basics, you can start playing!

Craps is played with two standard six-sided dice, and your goal is to guess the outcome. Like Roulette and Blackjack, the game is played in rounds. Before the round starts, place your bet on the Craps table. Click or tap on a betting chip and put it on the betting area you want to wager on. Each section represents a different bet, and the first roll of the dice is called the 'come out roll.'

There are two main bets, the 'pass line' bet and the 'don't pass line' bet. There are also more than 40 extra bets which you can wager on. Some of them are quite complicated. But for beginners, let's focus on the following.

• When betting on the 'pass line' bet, a roll of 7 or 11 is a win (called 'natural'), and the opposite is true for the 'don't pass line' bet, a 7 or 11 is a loss. When this happens, it's the end of the round, and a new round can start.
• If the dice roll came out to 2, 3 or 12, then the 'don't pass line' bet wins, and the 'pass line' bet loses (called 'craps').

If the dice rolls come out to a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, the number becomes the 'point,' and the dice are rolled repeatedly until the dice lands on the 'point,' or a 7.

• Rolling the point number results in the 'pass line' bet winning, and the 'don't pass line' bet losing. If, however, a 7 is rolled, the opposite is true.

Each of our Craps games has a "help" menu, which contains important information and explanations about the game, its rules, and payouts. See our help and support section below for more information.

Like virtually every casino game, there's the classic version that stays true to the game's core rules and gameplay, plus exciting variations that introduce different betting options, sets of rules, and payouts.

• Bank Craps – The most commonly played and known variation of Craps and thought of as the standard set of rules and way to play.
• Crapless Craps – A simpler version of Craps that removes the 'don't pass' bet and changes the pass bet rules. An 11 is no longer a 'natural' win, and all numbers apart from a 7 become the point number. This also means that 2, 3 and 12 are no longer losing numbers.
• High Point Craps – This version of Craps has changes that alter the gameplay significantly. If your first roll is a 2 or 3, it doesn't count, and the dice are thrown again. If you roll an 11 or 12, you'll automatically win. All other totals become the point. To win, you need to roll a total greater than the point.
• New York Craps – One of the first things you'll notice when playing New York Craps is the table is different. It's called a double-end dealer. The 'come,' 'don't come' and 'place' bets are removed, and you can bet on box numbers 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, or 10. There's also a 5% commission on any winnings, which reduces the house edge.
• Simplified Craps – This is a very simple version of Craps. Roll a total of 2, 3, 4, 10, 11 or 12 to win. A 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 is a loss. The house edge is worse than regular Craps, 2.8% but is much simpler to play.
• Diceless Craps – Played with 44 decks of cards instead of dice. Each deck of cards only has Ace to 6 cards, which represent the dice numbers.

Similar to Roulette, risky bets in Craps have higher payouts. The ‘pass line’ and ‘don't pass line’ bets offer the lowest house edge and payout 1:1, where-as bets with a higher house edge, such as field bets payout 2:1 with a 5.5% house edge.

If you want to play smartly, follow these tips for the optimal craps betting strategy. Remember, Craps is a game of chance, and no system will guarantee you a win. But they can help increase your chances.

Pass and Come bets: With these bets, you have the lowest house edge (1.41%) and fair odds. You'll want to bet on the shooter before a point is set, and then bet on the come if they have.

Don’t Pass and Don’t Come Bets: Don’t pass and don’t come bets are the opposite of pass and come bets. You’re betting against the dice roll instead of on it.

Laying Bets: With a laying bet, you're placing a wager against a specific number appearing. A good strategy is to place a lay bet on 4 and 10 not being rolled, as they have the lowest chance of appearing.

Place 6 and 8 Bets: The most common number which appears is 7, followed by 6 and 8, which is why they're also good betting options.

The 3 Points Molly Strategy: The idea behind the 3-point Molly strategy is to begin betting with the shooter during the initial roll and wagering come bets with the highest odds such as single or double odds. When you win, place another bet and then continue until the shooter 'craps,' i.e. loses.

Bad Craps Strategy: Bets You Should Avoid

Bad strategies should be avoided because the house edge is often too high, and the payouts too low. Only play like this if you have no problem taking on the added risky nature of this play style.

Big 6 and 8: These are even money bets which pay 1:1, and they're a bad bet because there are more ways to lose than there are to win.

Hardways, 4, 6, 8 and 10: Hardways bets have a big payout at 9:1 and only payout when identical numbers appear. So, a 2+2, 3+3, 4+4, or 5+5. This is viewed as a bad strategy because the house edge is as high as 9%.

Proposition Bets: To win this bet, you need to hit the number on the very next roll, or you lose. The house edge can be as high as 16%, which is why it's best to avoid.
