ABSTRACT:
A simplified version of traditional casino style craps is provided where all bets are determined through a single roll of the dice, thus making the game easily understood by novice gamblers. The layout of the game includes a primary, second and third wagering areas. The primary wagering area provides an even money payout through two possible betting lines, an Under Seven line and an Over Seven line, based on the sum total of the roll of the dice in relation to the most probable roll of a seven. The primary wagering area also includes a non-betting line of Seven-You Lose All Bets, that clears all bets when a seven is rolled, even those bets placed within any of the other wagering areas. The second wagering area also includes two betting lines, one that predicts that the sum total of the dice will be a three and the other that the total will be an eleven. The betting lines of the second wagering area payout at 10 times the wager. The third wagering area has six betting lines, and each line represents the shooter rolling one of the possible combinations of doubles. The third wagering area has a payout for each betting line that is 25 times the wager. The only betting restriction of the game concerns who may become the shooter, which is chosen from only those players that bet within the primary wagering area. A successive shooter is the next clockwise player who is immediately adjacent the previous shooter and one who has placed a wager in the primary wagering area.
