Online Craps game- play Craps at free casino
Online Craps is a game of fast paced casino action, centered around a pair of dice. In the case of online craps, the dice may be virtual, but the excitement is the same. Free online casino craps is readily available with reliable applications to simulate the action packed thrill of rolling the dice. Whether you are a new player who can benefit immeasurably from the free craps casino play, or a novice with years of experience - Online craps brings a new and adventageous dimension to the usual table game play. There are many wagering options in casino craps, making it a game of strategic play using both luck and skill:
The first roll of the dice is called the Come Out Roll. For this roll, players usually bet on either the Pass Line or the Don't Pass Line. If a 7 or 11 is rolled, the game ends and bets on the Pass Line pay out even money (1:1). If the roll is 2, 3 or 12 - the Pass Line bet loses. The Don't Pass bet is just the opposite of the Pass Line, paying 1:1 on 2, 3 and 12 and loses on 7 or 11. If any other number is rolled ( 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10), a Point is established and the game continues.
Once established, the point is represented by a white marker indicating the placement. All Don't Pass and Pass Line bets are locked and can't be removed or added to. The player can now place an Odds bet on any Pass Line or Don't Come bets on the table. The amount you can wager on Odds bets in craps is limited using the '3-4-5 times odds' structure, meaning you can play 3x odds when the point is 4 or 10, 4x if the point is 5 or 9, and 5x when the point is 6 or 8.
In addition, a Field Bet can be placed at any time. This would be a bet on the hopes that 2,3,4,9,10, or 11 will come out on the next roll. If you place a Field Bet and a 3, 4, 9, 10 or 11 is rolled, it pays even money (1:1). If a 2 is rolled, it pays 2:1 and if a 12 is rolled, payout is 3:1. Any other value rolled results in a loss.
The Big 6 Wager pays when a 6 is rolled before a 7. If you place a bet on Big 6, and a 6 is rolled before a 7 is rolled, your bet is paid 7:6. You lose if the the 7 is rolled before 6. The Big 8 Wager works on the same principle, using 7 and 8 instead.
A " Hardway Bet" is when you roll either a 4, 6, 8 or 10 and the dice show exactly the same value (ie: Hardway 8 is achieved by rolling exactly two 4's). There are 4 possible hardway bets and you win if the hardway bet is rolled before a 7 or before any other combination of the dice that are equal to the same value, but is not a hardway. Hardway 4 pays 7:1, Hardway 6 pays 9:1, Hardway 8 pays 9:1 and Hardway 10 pays 7:1.
The Come and Don't Come area bets are much like the Pass and Don't Pass bets except they can only be wagered on after a point has been established. Once a point is set, you may bet on Come: the bet will be paid even money if the next roll is 7 or 11, and it will lose if 2, 3 or 12 is rolled. If a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10 is rolled when a Come or Don't Come bet is placed, then the point is called a Come Point and the chips will move to the area representing that point. Come and Don't Come odds work exactly the same as Pass Line and Don't Pass odds. They may be placed as soon as a Come Point has been set and pay the same as Pass Line Odds and Don't Pass Odds.
A Place Bet to Win is a wager on 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10. It is betting on the chance that this number will be rolled before a 7. The bet can be made at any time and pays out as follows: winning Place Bet on 4 or 10 pays 9:5, a winning Place Bet on 5 or 9 pays 7:5 and a winning Place Bet on 6 or 8 pays 7:6. A Place Bet to Lose is the opposite to Place Bet to Win, meaning you are betting that the dice will roll a 7 before the value you're betting to lose. Place Bet to Lose pays: 4 or 10 pays 5:11, 5 or 9 pays 5:8 and 6 or 8 pays 4:5.
Buy Bets resemble Place Bets except they pay true odds minus a 5% commission. When rolling the number of your buy bet before a 7 pays as follows: 4 or 10 pays 2:1, 5 or 9 pays 3:2 and 6 or 8 pays 6:5, each of these minus a 5% commission of the amount of your bet. Lay Bets are just the opposite in that you are betting that a 7 is rolled before the number of your Lay Bet. As before, your bets are paid true odds when they win, minus a 5% commission. That is, 4 or 10 pays 1:2, 5 or 9 pays 2:3 and 6 or 8 pays 5:6, each minus 5% commission on your original bet.
Any Seven is a one-time bet that pays out 4:1, if the next roll is a 7. Otherwise it loses.
Any Craps is a one-time bet that will pay 7:1, if the next roll is a 2 or 3. Otherwise it loses.
Crap 2 is a one-time bet that will pay 30:1, if the next roll is a 2. Otherwise it loses.
Crap 3 : a one-time bet that will pay 15:1, if the next roll is a 3. Otherwise it loses.
Crap 12 : a one-time bet that will pay 30:1, if the next roll is a 12. Otherwise it loses.
Proposition 11: A one-time bet that will pay 15:1 if the next roll is a 11. Otherwise it loses.
