| The first roll of the dice in a Craps
round, be it free or gambling craps is called the "Come Out Roll". The
basic opening bet in Craps, which is placed just before the Come Out Roll, is
called the "Pass Line Bet." Pass Line Bets are instant winners when
the shooter's Come Out Roll is 7 or 11, and lose when the Come Out Roll is 2 ,
3, or 12. If 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 are rolled on the Come Out Roll, that number
becomes "The Point". "The Puck" (a small round plastic marker
labeled "ON" in this case and "OFF" in other cases) shows
that The Point has been established, and is located on the Craps table over the
box for the number rolled as The Point: "4, 5, six, 8, nine, or 10". |
