Learn How to Play Craps Game

While there are differences in playing a real game of Craps at a real Casino and playing this Java applet version of the game, the concepts remain the same.  This game takes into account all the correct odds as well as the correct payoffs.  Therefore, when playing this game it is best to imagine yourself in Las Vegas playing with (and hopefully winning) real money!  Obviously, when playing in Las Vegas you don't need a Java enabled Web Browser.  However, in this game you will require Java Applets to be enabled on your Web Browser.

Your computer, the browser and the applet do most of the work for you.  Think of this game as having a very knowledgeable and helpful Craps Table crew.  The Stickman informs the applet what to do, when to do it and notifies you when certain actions need to be taken.  And the Dealer will keep you covered by making sure you have varying denominations of chips to make bets with and change your bet amount (when necessary) in order for you to get the best house advantage.

Just as in a real Casino, the Dealer and Stickman (the applet in this case) will not tell you WHERE to make bets or HOW MUCH to bet.  Rather, the details of taking the fullest advantage of free-odds and calculating the correct payoffs are handled for you.  All you need to do is point and click the mouse.
