Crapless Craps
There are NO don't pass or don't come bets. Lay bets are still permitted.
Every number but the 7 is now a point number on the come out roll.
The game gets it's name from the crap numbers 2,3 and 12 that do NOT cause the pass line to lose on a come out roll.
Crapless Craps started at the Stratosphere Hotel and Casino on The Strip in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Bob Stupak, the former owner of the Stratosphere Hotel & Casino, is given the credit for the game of crapless craps.
Crapless craps is available in Mississippi casinos, the Stratosphere on "The Strip" in Las Vegas and at the Plaza and Vegas Club downtown Las Vegas casinos. The Las Vegas casinos all offer 10 times odds.
Crapless Craps is also known as Ruse Craps, Never Ever Craps and Never Craps.
Besides the obvious difference between Crapless craps and regular craps where the player now can NOT lose or
"crap out" on the come out roll, there are no don't bets available. The don't pass and don't come bets can not be made.
Lay bets and Buy bets are
still the same. The true odds on the 2 and 12 pay 6 to 1 and 3 to 1 on the 3 and 11.
Place bets and Buy bets can now be made on the 2, 3, 11 and 12.
Odds for the pass line and come bets are still the same with the addition of odds for the 2, 3, 11 and 12.
