Craps - Basics of the Game
Can you consciously play a night of craps without being called a crab? Why would anyone call you that anyway? Maybe because craps was once formerly known as crabs, but although it has no real formal relation it has been on a roll and become a part of casino culture.

For anyone familiar with the ancient Old English game of Hazard would know that Craps is its modern and simplified version of this game.

All a casino crazed craps player needs to know how to do is strategically roll two dice, which comes by pure luck and wager with it and go for that great win. And aside from wagering away for the win, the craps contender will want to also attempt to draw in the craps crowd.

The basics of the game are by far very basic. What happens is that there is the player who actually rolls the dice this player is called the shooter. Another craps term worth your knowledge is the first roll of a new round called a “come-out roll.” All craps bets are based upon the total sum of each roll and how far you will take the game – if you will play the night away.

Craps betting cannot be bargained for and its own wagering world has combinations that will lead to the pots of gold making you a famous, popular and beloved craps casino favorite.

It’s important to know what craps come-out rolls are, such as pass the line betting. This is when the shooter rolls as seven or an eleven. A “craps” happens when an Ace, two, three or twelve is rolled making the competitor a loser. Points can be scored if the player happens to roll a four, five, six, eight, nine or ten. When craps points are scored then the pass-line better win if rolled two times in a row, yet will lose if the player immediately after a point rolls a seven that’s why it is called a “seven-out.”

While the greatest experience one can find is vying away at the casino craps table with thousands of spectators, it is important to know the four key employees. The first is the box man who guards the pile chips for possible cheating thieves. This character also supervises the dealers and handles coloring out players. The second characters in the game are two base dealers who stand on two sides of the box man. They collect and pay bets. There is also the stickman who stands opposite the box man from the table and announces the results with a long wooden stick and manages the gambling wages.

There are various forms and stages of the game, which are not difficult, but merely you as the player must go out there with composure and confidence. You have the chance to strut down the red carpet to success down to the creative craps table, take the two dice and roll to great winnings. Draw in that crowd and roll everyone away.

Technical Craps Methods
Craps is a fun casino game and all the more so can be entertaining when you know the ins and outs of it. The key to enjoying yourself in a game of craps is learning the technicalities of the game, which can make the game roll more smoothly.
The first thing we must learn about is the Martingale system. This proves that in a game like craps, which is based upon mere chance so there is not one single wagering method that will get a craps contender earning some change, yet it does not keep the craps competitor from having his favorite style betting.

This is where there martingale system comes into play. In craps, this bet begins with a mere dollar, but the odd side of it is that the bet doubles whenever the player loses. But when he wins the one dollar bet starts all over again. The biggest downfall of this craps system is that if you’re on a craps winning streak then you’re estimated winning sum is already determined and if you go on a losing streak you’ll be out of money in no time.

Another important craps technicality the gamer should know when getting into the philosophy of the game is that of the gambler’s fallacy. This philosophical theory is a craps term, which says that the die when rolled influences the probabilities of future die rolls. Of course the reality of the matter is that the dice act independently so the chances of it landing on a specific number is just a matter of luck.

Another member of the craps mania is the parity hedge system, which quite a few have dubbed a hoax. Yet there are those hypnotic craps contenders who still believe in it.
When playing away in this one of a kind casino favorite, the way the dice is set can make all the difference. This is because craps is a game of throwing the dice and hoping for lady luck to land on your side. The dice setting theory however is not so obscure as other methods out there on the list that have become some players superstitious luck charm.
Surprisingly from the dice setting a winning strategy could be devised from this system. Few authors have even take the time to write about specific dice settings will in the end determine how the dice will land and whether a craps player will walk away with winning wonders.
Among other things yet to go with dice setting in a game of craps is that also of dice control or influencing the actual throwing of the dice. Some believe that in the specific way a dice is thrown the odds of the game could easily be altered. For one to take complete control of the dice through the mind or through some other form is a matter of belief of a human being’s ability for physical control. Whether playing a game of craps involves various methods or superstitions is up to you.
