Etiquette in the game of craps

 What better way to show you know how to play craps than displaying your creative and composite craps etiquette?

The craps rules of etiquette are the unwritten rules of the game that keep all players in line with their behaviour and make the gaming environment a much more pleasurable experience.

There are certain rules that pertain to casino security when playing craps. First any craps competitor is advised not to touch the dice with more than one hand and pass them directly from hand to hand. If you want to change hands then you must of course throw the dice and get on with the game of craps.

So, if you’re releasing the dice you should out of courtesy throw the dice across the table so that it hits the furthest wall from where you are throwing the dice in that craps game. And of all things you won’t want to roll those dice right into the boxman’s bank or any place where the dealers are holding the stacks of money. If the chips on top are knocked off then the bet you are playing for in this craps extravaganza is whatever remains at the top of that towering stack.

If the die hits where it shouldn’t, don’t touch it!

Here’s another interesting technique in craps, don’t attempt to shove money in the dealers hands and have him give you chips. It is forbidden for the dealers to touch you the craps contender. You will need to place your money on the layout and then call “change only.”

There is another policy that many casinos have, which is called the “no call bets.” When calling this at craps table it is necessary that you have at least wagered away the minimal amount of chips mounting on the table. Here the dealer isn’t required to place the bet where it belongs and making this one a valid bet.

Now there is of course some commonly observed etiquette when playing aside from security.

You can be courteous and pass the dice to the next player, but remember that there must always be at least one shooter in order for the game to continue its purpose.

Craps without charisma cannot continue.

When you have that blatant desire to tip common courtesy as informal as it may sound includes tossing chips onto the table and shouting “for the boys.”

You can also make a two-way bet in the craps of fun. This goes half for the dealer and half for the player in the game of craps. The dealer’s bet is smaller, but at least there are some small earnings if he does make out.

The number seven is considered bad luck – it is also known as “big red.” Also, note that changing dice in the middle of a roll is bad luck and highly not recommended.

Craps has many different courtesy calls and combinations of etiquette. The key is learning how to properly display it in the craziness of this casino game.
