Online dice games exist in several variations and are the favorite pastime of many players.

Craps rules

In a casino, creps is a playing table and two dice (hexahedrons). The players take turns throwing the dice. Craps is divided into two stages: Come Out Roll (the first roll of the shooter) and Point Roll (roll after the establishment of the Point number). The player rolls the dice on the playing table, and the amount of points rolled on the dice determines the further course of the game.

In the event of a roll of numbers on dice 7 or 11, the player rolls the dice again.

When a combination of dice 2, 3 or 12 comes up, the player loses and passes the dice to another player in the queue.

If a combination of dice 4, 5, 6, 8 or 9 (Point) falls out, the game goes to the second stage – Point Roll. In this case, the player will roll the dice until the Point or 7 set by him is dropped on the playing table.

In an online casino, dice is usually played by four people. The boxman monitors the actions of the dealers, the two dealers collect the lost bets, and the stickman accepts the bets, announces the numbers of the numbers that have fallen out after the throw, and is generally responsible for the course of the game.

While online craps is played with the same rules as a land-based table craps game, it comes in many variations, so it’s always a good idea to carefully read the rules of the online craps game you’ve chosen. It is also important to choose a reliable online casino with a good reputation.

As with any other game, it never hurts to practice and watch others play dice before you start playing for money. Careless play can cost you a lot of money.
