The fastest, most thrilling game in the casino is without a doubt Craps! It is also the easiest game to spot in the house - just listen for the cheering and yelling and watch as people's towering adrenaline shoots right through the roof. The craps table is about three times the size of a blackjack table - with high sides and a sunken layout. Like blackjack and poker, it's a game of skill, which can be played with a high degree of success if your technique is watertight. The bets are placed on the rolling of two six-sided dice - labelled 1 through 6.
As fun as it can be, this fast paced craps game can be very intimidating to most first-time players. As you watch all the commotion, it is difficult (if not impossible) to get the gist of it and you can quickly become disoriented. One should approach craps with some caution, because of its fast and unpredictable nature. Money can be won and lost extremely quickly at a craps table; lost especially if you're a novice. A smart player will do his homework first and approach the game of craps prepared and well informed. But don't worry, there isn't too much to cover before you get started.
There are some elements of the game that you should know before placing a bet at the craps table: the rules, strategies, odds of winning and most of all, the table layout and where to place your bets.
