Craps Rules

  • PASS LINE and DON'T PASS Bets - are made on the "Come-Out" roll when "Puck" (marker) is showing "OFF" (Black side).
  • PASS LINE - wins on 7 or 11, loses on 2, 3, or 12 on "Come-Out" roll (first roll of dice). Any other number becomes the "Point" (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10). If the "Point" rolls again before a 7 you win even money. The dealer will mark the "Point" with the "Puck" "ON" (Whiteside).
  • DON'T PASS - loses on 7 or 11, wins on 2 or 3, 12 is a Push on the first roll of the dice. Any other number becomes the "Point" you are betting against. If the 7 rolls before the "Point" rolls again you win even money.
  • COME and DON'T COME Bets - can be placed only when the "Puck" is showing "ON" (Whiteside).
  • COME BETS - win on 7 or 11, lose on 2, 3, or 12. Any other number becomes your "Point" (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10). If your "Point" rolls again before a 7 you win even money. The dealer marks this "Point" with your chips.
  • DON'T COME - loses on 7 or 11, wins on 2 or 3, 12 is a Push on the first roll of the dice after bet is placed in the Don't Come square. Any other number will become the "Point" you are betting against. If a 7 rolls before that "Point" you win even money. The dealer will mark the "Point" you are betting against with your chips by placing them behind the appropriate number.
  • ODDS - once a "Point" is established, you may take Odds WITH the dice on your PASS LINE or COME LINE Bets. The ODDS PAY:

    • If the point is 6 and 8, odds pay 6 to 5
  • You may Lay Odds AGAINST the dice on your DON'T PASS or DON'T COME bets - The amount required to Lay Odds is determined by the ways the "Point" can roll in comparison to 7.
