Crapless Craps at Hard Rock Atlantic City
How to Play
This fast-paced game is played by placing various bets on a Craps table and throwing two dice to the opposite end of the table. The game begins with a come-out roll. The dice are offered to the player in a clockwise direction around the table. To shoot the dice, a player must bet the Pass Line. The shooter selects a pair of dice and tosses them past the stickperson dealer to the other end of the game, where they need to bounce off the craps table wall. Once a point is established, players bet that the point will roll again before a 7, as well as other betting options.
Wagers
- Pass Line: Pass Line Bets can be made only before the first roll of the dice known as the "Come Out Roll." Players win on a natural 7 on the Come Out Roll. Any other number rolled becomes the point. To win, the shooter must roll their point again before rolling a 7. A Pass Line Bet cannot be placed, reduced, or removed once the Point has been established until it wins or loses. This bet pays even money.
- Come Bets: Come Bets are made any time after a shooter has rolled a point. These bets are similar to Pass Line Bets in that they become subsequent points during a shooter's roll.

- Field Bets: A Field Bet is a one roll bet that can be made at any time. If
