What Crapless craps is

A variant where 2, 3, 11 and 12 can become points rather than immediate come-out wins/losses.

How to play

Objective: For a basic pass-line game, win on a come-out 7 or 11, or establish a point and then roll that point again before a 7.

  1. Place a pass-line or other chosen wager before the roll.
  2. On the come-out roll, pass-line bets win on 7/11 and lose on 2/3/12; other numbers establish a point.
  3. If a point is established, the shooter continues rolling.
  4. The pass line wins if the point repeats before 7; it loses if 7 appears first.
  5. Other bets settle according to their own rules and durations.

Rules worth checking

  • Do not treat every craps bet as having the same risk.
  • Free odds, where offered, are separate from the base line wager.
  • One-roll proposition bets often have very different house edges from line bets.

Always use the rules inside the exact game you open. Table rules, pay tables, side bets, RTP and feature behaviour can differ even when two games share a familiar name.

What to check before choosing this variant

The name alone is not enough to establish the exact rules you will receive. Compare the in-game help screen and pay table with the differences described above, then confirm wager limits, optional side bets, special payouts and any feature that changes the normal rules of craps. If the operator offers more than one version, use the published rules—not the thumbnail or marketing name—to decide whether two tables or games are actually equivalent.
