California Craps Rules
Craps is one of the most exciting table games in any casino. The clinking of chips, the cheering and the colorful jargon (not to mention colorful characters) add up to an unforgettable game and what many consider to be an essential part of the Las Vegas experience.
7) California (Info for Dungeness crabs only): Dungeness crab CANNOT be harvested from San Francisco Bay or San Pablo Bay. Minimum shell width (Size is measured in a straight line across the back (caliper measurement) immediately in front of, but not including the tips): 5.75 inches – Hard shell Daily creel limit: 10 crabs per day. For a craps player, this is likely to become quite boring and annoying. You will not usually hear loud ruckus coming from Harrah’s Southern California craps tables like you would expect from other casinos. Roulette works with a similar workaround to that of craps in order to circumvent the very odd California. The California Constitution prohibits various gaming activities within the state, including casino-style gambling, but authorizes the Governor, subject to ratification by the Legislature, to negotiate and conclude compacts for the operation of slot machines and the conduct of lottery games and banking and percentage card games by federally recognized Indian tribes on Indian lands in California. 2010 Ford Transit Connect Fuse Box Pdf 2010 Ford Transit Connect Fuse Box Pdf PDF Download Free.
Craps, though, can sometimes be daunting to new players.
Never fear! We decided to get the inside scoop about craps from longtime casino pro, Guido Metzger, Director of Gaming Operations for the downtown casinos of Boyd Gaming. Boyd Gaming operates three downtown casinos, the Fremont Hotel & Casino, California Hotel & Casino and Main Street Station Casino, Brewery and Hotel.
Guido Metzger knows craps inside and out, so he gave us a quick video tutorial for beginners.
As Metzger says, the basics of the game are fairly straightforward, so stick to the two or three simple bets (pass line, plus odds—ask a dealer about the odds bet, because it’s not marked on the table) until you become more comfortable at the craps table.
Remember, on the “come out” roll, 7 or 11 wins and 2, 3, 12 lose. Seven is the most commonly-rolled number, so you’re sitting pretty on the come out roll!
If another number is rolled, the number is marked by the dealers, and the shooter needs to hit that number again, before a 7, to win.
That’s it! No, really. Everything else is flair.
Of course, the more you know, the fun there is to be had at craps.
Here are a few more craps tips from our resident craps whiz, Guido Metzger.
If you’re still feeling overwhelmed by craps, feel free to observe the table before plunking your money down. Craps dealers and your fellow players are often happy to share their wealth of knowledge so you can join the game. If you’ve never played craps before, seasoned players are going to love having you shoot the dice. Craps “virgins” are considered good luck!
Now, if you’re feeling emboldened with your newfound craps prowess, there’s a way to turn your craps mojo into big bucks at the upcoming $10,000 Sharpshooter Craps Tournament, Nov. 26-29, 2015 at Fremont casino.
