How To Play Craps
Your chips are stacked by denomination (L1, L5, L25, L100, L500) at the bottom right hand corner of the screen above your Username. Select the amount you would like to wager on a given roll(s) by clicking the left mouse button on the chip of that denomination. This activates that specific chip denomination. Next, place your bet on the Craps table by clicking on a Bet field. To specify a bet that does not equal to an existing chip denomination, simply click on another chip denomination after placing your previous chip on the table. For example, to bet L30, click on the L25 chip and place it on the table then click on the L5 chip and place it on top of the L25 chip. There are many types of bets available in Craps (both regular and supplementary ones after the first roll), all of which are summarized in the following two sections below. Your total bet will be displayed in the LTotal BetL field to the right of your Balance. You have the option of throwing the dice yourself or having the computer throw the dice for you. If you prefer to throw the dice yourself please ensure that the checkbox just below the Done button is selected. Once you have placed your bet(s) on the table, press the Done button. A new game window will appear at the right-hand side of the screen. Simply pick up the dice that are sitting in the dice tray by left-clicking on them. To release the dice, simply release the left-mouse button. This shooter window will close automatically once the dice have stopped rolling.
If you prefer not to throw the dice make sure that the checkbox underneath the Done button is de-selected. After placing your bets on the table click on the Done button and the dice will be rolled for you. The outcome for the last five rolls is displayed in the top left-hand corner of the screen. Anytime you win or lose money, a message will be displayed in a rectangular window at the top of the game screen. You may close this window by clicking on the x in the
