Craps Secrets That Craps Players Should Know
Here are some craps secrets that you need to know for your own benefit during a craps game.
Craps Secret 1. Stopping the play of craps
Yes, it can be done, to stop the play of a craps game at the table. The condition is you should have a very good reason why the play must be stopped. There are times that craps dealers will make some errors due to their human nature, and if ever these errors occur, you have the privilege to stop the craps game and ask for the Pit Boss to settle things down.
Calling the Pit Boss over to the craps table is a rare event because commonly, it is the boxman who will settle the problem first. If the boxman can't handle it, the floor person will then be called. If the problem is still not resolved, that is the time that the Pit Boss comes over to the craps table.
Craps Secret 2. You have no bestfriend at the craps table you are playing
There are casino employees who will see to it that you are a loyal patron and they are never present at the craps tables or at any other table games. They have their own office cubicle that is known as the casino hosts. It is their job to see that you are happy and that you received the comps that you truly deserved. If you don't have any casino host, you can ask for one and they will willingly help you during your craps games.
Craps Secret 3. Limits for the proposition bets are not announced
Each craps table has a poster stating the table minimum and maximum but none for the proposition bets. Prior to putting your bets on the proposition area of the craps table, it is a good habit to ask first the dealer what are the minimum and maximum bets for the proposition bets.
Craps Secret 4. Use chips to keep in track at the craps table.
Just like card counting in blackjack, you can determine the way to bet in craps by keeping track on the Pass/Don't Pass bet or Sevens/Inside Numbers. You can do it by placing a red chip for each Pass and a white chip for each Don't Pass. This will help you keep track on the numbers out of every 36 dice rolls and then start over again.
Craps Secret 5. Changing minimums at the craps table
Generally, casinos always change the craps table minimums depending on what day and time of day it is. Mostly on weekdays, the table minimums are as low as $2, the higher table minimums happen on evenings, and the highest table minimums are on weekends.
