Instruction manual

CRAPS
Players: Any number from two and up. The
players bet amongst themselves. In gambling
houses, the players are grouped around a large
table resembling a billiard table, stenciled with a
layout shown where bets should be placed and what
odds are paid.
The Play: The player who starts the game places
in the center whatever he wishes to bet and
announces its amount. Any other player or players
may fade such portions of the bet as they wish, by
placing that amount in the center with the shooters
bet. Any part of the bet not faded is withdrawn by
the shooter. No more than the amount offered may
be faded.
The shooter rolls the dice. The shooter wins if his
first roll is a 7 or 11 (a natural). He loses if it is a 2,
3 or 12 (craps); he has a point to make if it is a 4, 5,
6, 8, 9 or 10. When he gets a point, the result is not
yet decided. He must roll them again and again, as
often as necessary, and he will win if his point
appears before a 7, but he will lose if a 7 appears
first. All intervening rolls are meaningless.
When the shooter loses, those who faded him take
such part of the center bets as belong to them
(always exactly double the amount they bet, for all
center bets are at even money). When the shooter
wins (passes) all of the money in the center belongs
to him and he may make another center bet if he
wishes, increasing or decreasing his previous bet as
he sees fit, but no one is ever forced to bet, and he
may give up the dice if he prefers.
The shooter loses the dice when he gets a point and
fails to make it. In this case, or when he voluntarily
passes the dice, the player at his left becomes the
next shooter.
