Publisher's Synopsis
Craps is a casino dice game that involves a great deal of action and strategy, both with money and the dice.To understand how to play casino craps, a player first needs to understand the craps table personnel and where they are located. The most common table personnel for craps games in casinos include dealers, a boxperson and a stickperson.The boxperson is in charge of the craps table and is the immediate supervisor for the entire game. The supervisor is also in charge of the chips and must handle any disputes between the dealers and players.The dealer to the boxperson's right side is the 2nd base dealer. Any craps player on that side of the game is on the 2nd base side. A key way to remember this is to look at the field. On 2nd base, number two on the field is the furthest from the boxperson.The dealer to the boxperson's left is the 3rd base dealer. Any craps player on that side of the game is on the 3rd base. A key way to remember this is to look at the field. On 3rd base, number twelve on the field is the furthest from the boxperson (1+2=3rd base).The dealer moving the dice with a long-hooked stick is called the stickperson. The stickperson is located center of the table-opposite of the boxperson.If a player is "straight out" they are located at the middle end of the table on either side.Supervisors use the color of a player's clothing, as well as the players position to designate the player for ratings.While it may seem complicated at first, Craps is a relatively simple game to understand and play. The fast pace of play, variety of betting options, and entertaining action draw even make Craps a game that's almost as fun to watch as it is to play.Get your copy today by scrolling up and clicking Buy Now to get your copy today
