Over the past few years the game also migrated and made its way into France and Britain. The game was renamed as Hazard the moment it was introduced in Britain. The French people were the first who introduced the game to Canada and after that it migrated to New Orleans. After traveling on river boats across New Orleans the game managed to reach the shores of America on West coast.

When placing your bets in a game of craps, the structure is divided into two different formats. Players can either bet with the dice or there are also chances that they can place their bet against the dice. Whenever you are betting with the dice, it is always considered as the right type of betting, and in case you are placing your bets against the dice then it is always looked up as wrong type of betting. When speaking mathematically, there is no difference between the two types of bets that the players make.

So the moment the player shoots the dice he is also expected to hit either 7 or 11, which are also considered as the winning numbers that are going to payout in even money to the players. The moment the players hit 12 or 2, then these numbers are said to be craps and the players always lose their bet. But in case you manage not to hit 7, 11, 2 or 12 then this is considered as points in craps, then you should try and hit the same number once again, before you roll 7. In case you hit a point and then hit a 7 you shall win and will be paid in even money.
