How to Play Craps – Simple Rules for Beginners

Craps is a fast-paced dice game that's full of excitement and surprisingly easy to learn. Players bet on the outcome of a roll of two dice, making it a great game for beginners at fun casino events.

How Craps Works

A player, known as the "shooter", rolls two dice. Players place bets on what they think will happen next. The most common bet is the Pass Line Bet, which is simple and ideal for first-time players.

2. The Come-Out Roll

The shooter rolls the dice for the first time.

  • A 7 or 11 wins immediately.

  • A 2, 3 or 12 loses immediately.

  • Any other number becomes the Point.

3. Point Established

If a Point is rolled (4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10), the shooter continues rolling.

4. Rolling for the Point

The shooter keeps rolling until:

  • The Point number is rolled again – Pass Line bets win.

  • A 7 is rolled first – Pass Line bets lose.

5. New Round Begins

Once the round ends, a new Come-Out Roll starts.
