^C^1CASINO CRAPS
^Cby
^CAnthony Oreglia
If you've ever been to Las Vegas or Atlantic City, you probably saw the craps
tables at the casinos. There, the high rollers stake fortunes on rolls of the
dice, placing bets with arcane names like Pass, Don't Pass, Hard 6, and Big 8.
In the dazzling, frenetic atmosphere of a casino, it's easy to lose all
your money before you know what hit you. But now BIG BLUE DISK gives you a
chance to play the game of Craps, learn how it's done, and experiment with
betting strategies, without risking any real cash.
Casino Craps implements the rules of Craps as it is played in most casinos.
A wide variety of bets are supported, and when you select one, it tells you
what rolls will win and lose, and what the payoff is, before you lay your money
down. Once you're done betting, it's time to roll and see if you make your
point or crap out. Of course, if you have a hunch the roll will go bad, you
can place your money on "Don't Pass," which pays off only if you lose.
As with all casino games, the odds are stacked in favor of the house;
they're not in business for their health. But once you learn basic rules and
strategies through this program, you should be able to avoid pitfalls which
cause novices to hand their money over to the casino even faster than average.
This may just keep you from losing your shirt next time you're in Vegas for
real.
