Craps can make a good change of game at your online casino

If you are one of those online casino players that is looking for something a bit different then one casino game worth a look is craps. Craps in an American casino is a very noisy experience as the craps table can accommodate around 20 players at one time and the excitement is allowed to build as a single roll of the dice invariably does not decide the outcome meaning further rolls are needed. Online casino craps is a much more subdued affair as you are alone at the table but at the same time that does allow you to get your head around what can at first be a very confusing casino game. The casino game of craps only uses two dice and craps at online casinos is no different so the outcomes are pretty restricted making it easy to follow but there are a number of bets which can be placed at various times which is what can make online craps confusing for the beginner. Fortunately online casino craps has a couple of simple bets which you can use to get your craps experience started and they are the pass line bet and the don’t pass line bet which are nearly but not quite opposite bets. The pass line bet wins straight away if the throw results in a 7 or an 11 and loses if it is 2, 3 or 12 but in all other cases the result is called the point and further throws are needed. In online casino craps you leave your original bet in place and if during subsequent throws result in the point value being repeated before a 7 is thrown then you win. Conversely of course if the 7 comes up before the point then you lose. There are several more bets which are possible at online casino craps so you are advised to read the rules but as casino games go craps can be pretty exciting.
