Time waster - Craps

It's a very easy game. Think of it as 2 phases (assuming you're playing with the dice, not against them):

Phase 1: The come out roll phase. Pass line bet. We are stuck in this phase, rolling until one of three events occur-

a) 2,3, or 12 show up: Craps, lose pass line bet, restart Phase 1.
b)7, 11 show up: Win pass line bet, restart Phase 1.
c)Any other number shows up (4,6,8,5,9,10). That number becomes the point, and we enter Phase 2.

In Phase 2, the rules are easier. We roll the dice until one of two scenarios occur:

a) The point number we established in Phase 1 shows up- pass line winner, restart at Phase 1

b) The 7 comes up. Everybody loses the pass line bet and all other bets "with" the dice (except the Come bet which we'll learn in my next lesson). The table is cleared, and we restart at Phase 1.

Couldn't be easier. All of the other bets are just betting on every aspect of the action. Every bet besides a Come Bet or Pass Line bet with odds are sucker bets for the most part. Usually the old guy at the table throwing money everywhere is playing sucker bets all over the place. Hop bets, C & E's, world bets, high-lows, high horn 7, hardways (which I actually like), yo's, etc are all sucker bets but sometimes people place them just because they sound so cool! "Gimmie a 2 dollar high low, parlay the hard 8, give me the rest of the hard ways for a dollar and give me the six-three on the hop!"

I found this amazing online craps simulator. I absolutely love playing craps and I can't believe how well done this little web app is: Craps
