Default Re: Teach me to play craps

Complete idiots guide to playing craps:

1. Walk up to table
2. Wait until the shooter (person rolling dice) is not rolling.
3. Put money on table in front of dealer. Receive chips.
4. Wait until the puck (black/white disc used to denote which number is the point) is "Off" (will be black with white lettering).
5. Place min bet for the table on the pass line.
6. If shooter rolls 7 or 11 you win. Take winnings leave pass line bet. A 2, 3 or 12 and you lose. Replace pass line bet. Any other number becomes the point.
7. Place double your original bet directly behind your original passline bet (but not on the passline).
8. Hope shooter rolls the point.
9. Profit.

Way too complicated.

1. Walk up to table
2. drop money on table, get chips
3. put minimum money on "come". If it's not the right time, dealer will helpfully move it to "pass" for you.
4. after dice are rolled drop everything else you have and say "odds". Dealer will helpfully give you back everything over the max odds.
5. repeat 3, 4 forever (or until all chips are gone). When everyone at the table cheers, you collect money.
