Craps is a classic casino dice game. It has always been popular with high stakes gamblers, hence the term "high rollers". Indeed, craps is fast paced and addictive at any level. There is no other casino game where you can win and lose so much money so fast.
The interesting thing about craps though is
that it really has a culture unto itself. You
can spend years playing blackjack or poker
with grim faced gamblers and then be
amazed at how totally different the lunatics
at the craps table are. These people have
their highs and lows just like other players
but when the table is "hot", they go... insane. Its fun.
There are some interesting strategies
to playing craps. On one hand you take a
mathematical approach, like the Free Odds
Basic Strategy, this will give the
lowest house edge. There is another
interesting strategy called the 5 Count,
developed by a craps pro called The
Captain. While this is less a mathematical
strategy, it is more a system designed to
identify and exploit good shooters.
