The following glossary is a listing of commonly used craps terms:

3-Way Craps	A bet made in units of 3 with one unit on 2, one unit on 3, and one unit on 12. This is a horn bet without the bet on 11.

Any Craps	A bet that the next roll will be 2, 3, or 12. This bet pays 7:1 and has a house edge of 11.1%.
Any Seven	A bet that the next roll will be 7. This bet pays 4:1 and has a house edge of 16.7%.

Betting Right	Betting that the dice will pass – with the dice.
Betting Wrong	Betting that the dice won’t pass – against the dice.

Big 8	A bet that an 8 will be rolled before a 7 comes up. This bet pays even money, and has a house edge of 9.1%. A place bet on 8 pays 7:6 but is identical otherwise. The place bet is preferred, having a house edge of 1.5%.

Bring Out	A term used by dealers and players when betting on the hardway of a point, to “bring out” the point.
Buy Bet	Giving the house a 5% commission in order to be paid correct odds for a place bet. The buy bets on 4 and 10 allow the player to reduce the house edge from 6.67% to 4% on these bets. Some casinos collect the commission only on winning bets, while others collect it at the time the bet is made.

Come Box	The area on the layout where a come bet is made.
Come Out Roll	The first roll of the dice in a betting round is called the “come out” roll. Pass bets win when the come out roll is 7 or 11, while pass bets lose when the come out roll is 2, 3, or 12. Don’t bets lose when the come out roll is 7 or 11, and don’t bets win when the come out roll is 2 or 3. Don’t bets tie when the come out roll is 12 (2 in some casinos; the “bar” roll on the layout indicates which roll is treated as a tie).

Dice Pass	The dice are said to “pass” when the shooter rolls a 7 or 11 on the come-out roll. The dice “don’t pass” when the shooter rolls a 2, 3, or 12 on the come-out. If the come-out roll is a 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10, this roll sets the “point”, and the shooter continues to roll until the point is rolled again or a 7 is rolled (see “seven out”). If the shooter rolls the point before rolling a seven, the dice pass. If the shooter sevens out, the dice don’t pass and the shooter loses control of the dice.
Don’t Come Bet	A “virtual don’t pass bet”; a bet made after the come out roll but in other respects exactly like a don’t pass bet.

Even-Money	A payoff at 1 to 1.
Field Bet	A bet that the next roll will be 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12. This bet pays even money for 3, 4, 9, 10, and 11, and usually pays 2:1 for 2 or 12. Some casinos pay 3:1 for either the 2 or 12 (but not both), and some casinos may make the 5 instead of the 9 a field roll.
Floorman	A casino employee who stands behind the craps table, checking on the players and authorizing credit for players.
Free-Odds Bet	Another term for any odds bet where the house has no advantage. Either taken (or laid) on a Pass, Don’t Pass, Come or Don’t Come bet after the point is established.

Horn High Bet	A bet made in multiples of 5 with one unit on 3 of the horn numbers, and two units on the “high” number; e.g., “$5 horn high eleven”: $1 each on 2, 3, 12, and $2 on the 11.

Lay Odds	After a point has been established, the don’t pass bettor can place an additional odds bet that will win if the original don’t pass bet wins.

Playing live dealer craps online is the closest you can get to replicating the buzz of the tables in a land-based casino. More and more players are now enjoying craps from the comfort of their homes.

While some associate the game with shady mobsters playing to the jazzy sounds of Dean Martin, craps is truly a game for everyone. But only playing at the safest, most reputable, online casinos will ensure that everyone gets a fair roll of the dice.

We recommend the best live craps casinos right here on this page, and also explain more about playing live dealer craps online for real money.

It’s fair to say that live dealer craps has yet to take off like live dealer sic bo, live dealer roulette, or live dealer baccarat. Part of this is down to the way the game is played.

Unlike a landbased casino, where you can physically throw the dice, playing live craps online involves a machine that shakes and tosses the dice.

Still, there are live dealer online casinos that have managed to do a great job in bringing the game to fans. Below, we cover why it is important to choose the top live dealer craps casinos and provide you with everything you need to know to get up and running.

Cool, exciting, and endless fun, craps is a top choice for players who value their leisure time. And while playing live dealer craps online for real money should be big on excitement and laughs, it pays to be choosy about where you get your kicks.

In other words, you should only opt for one of the top-rated live dealer craps casinos to ensure a good time. And that’s why it’s always helpful to consult the experts when it comes to making your choice of site.

A great live craps casino is not only 100% safe and secure, but will also stand up to the scrutiny of its games, software, deposit methods, bonus schemes, and more. We ensure that no online casino we recommend to craps players is anything but remarkable in all areas that matter.

Would you like to learn more about how we rank our the best online casinos for live dealer craps? Well, since you are here now, it would be rude not to share this information with you.

Ranking Online Casinos for Live Craps

We follow a strict set of guidelines when ranking all of our real money gambling sites, regardless of the type of betting or gaming. These guidelines ensure that we know everything about a site inside out before we recommend it to you.

You will find many of the important factors we analyze below. Just keep in mind that there are particular areas that we always make sure to look at, while other areas are only relevant where the best live dealer craps sites are concerned.

Playing casino games like live dealer craps for real money might be a whole lot safer than in the past, but that’s no reason to be less diligent.

In fact, the sophistication of online fraudsters and tricksters tends to be reactive to the increases in security features of casinos. And while playing live craps online is safe for the most part, if casinos do not have the latest SSL-encryption technology or advanced security protocols, they can often be at risk.

We ensure that the live dealer craps sites we recommend are trailblazers when it comes to keeping you safe. Not only do we review each site’s safety and security procedures, but we always ensure that the site is fully licensed and regulated, as well as 100% trustworthy.

Some real money casinos lag way behind when it comes to processing payments, which is not what you want when waiting to receive your winnings.

Our top-rated live dealer craps casinos don’t, and that’s why we rank them so highly. Aside from a smooth and hassle-free withdrawal process, you can expect to be united with your beautiful cash a lot quicker.

Depending on your withdrawal method, you could have your winnings in your hands within a day or two. That kind of speedy service is what keeps players happy. After all, if you were forced to wait an excessive amount of time, why would you bother?

The best bonuses for live dealer craps online are those that give the player a genuine chance of converting them to cash.

Unfortunately, not all bonuses that glitter are gold. Some of them aren’t even bronze. Worse yet, some of them are just downright ridiculous, and should be thrown into a giant hole in the Nevada desert and buried like the useless crap they are.

Our leading live craps casinos don’t play the game of talking big and delivering zilch. Instead, you can find incredible welcome bonuses, reloads, and tons of other promotions that are more than capable of getting you excited on these sites.

Is it viable for any live dealer craps casino to offer players just a couple of ways to deposit? We don’t think so. In fact, our ranked sites would not be where they are today if they failed to be inventive with their deposit methods.

Why would you choose a site to play on that cannot provide you with options? The answer is that you wouldn’t, right? But the simple fact of the matter is that many players get caught out by not checking deposit methods before they sign up.

Our recommended live craps sites are transparent in what payment methods they offer players. You can expect to see a healthy mix of credit and debit cards, e-wallets, Bitcoin, pay-by-phone, and a lot more.

High definition live dealer craps games are not just the way forward. We believe that they should be the norm.

If capturing an authentic craps experience is your aim, then our recommended live dealer online casinos is where it’s at. From crystal clear, high-definition streams to crisp, exquisite software, these sites all rate highly on doing things well.

There are many sites that we have reviewed in the past that are, unfortunately, not on the same page. These sites insist on using poor, outdated software that makes it feel like you’ve woken up in older times. Naturally, these sites get a big old thumbs down from us.

Choice of Games

Another very underrated aspect of the best live dealer craps casinos is the choice of games available at any given time.

Not only do we like to see a nice number of variants of the casino classic, but it’s always nice when a site can provide you with other games to play. After all, you might enjoy playing live dealer sic bo if you’re a fan of craps.

While we value quality over quantity, that does not mean that one has to exist without the other. As you can find out by visiting them, the very best of our recommended live dealer casino sites have nailed it.

Benefits of Playing Live Dealer Craps Online

Many folks new to the live dealer format might not be aware of just how much fun craps can be in this setting. And while the best live dealer casinos have a tendency of letting the games do the talking, sometimes, it’s worth pointing out why they are worth your time.

There are many reasons why playing real money live craps online can be so much fun. You get a certain level of privacy and customizability that you just can’t find at bricks and mortar casinos.

If you’re not quite ready to make the leap into the world of live dealer craps, perhaps the following might persuade you otherwise.

You will not find a more authentic replica of a craps game like online craps with live dealers. Nothing comes even close.

Not only are you playing on genuine craps tables with real dice, but everything looks identical to the real thing. If that wasn’t enough, the games are facilitated by real human dealers, making it a super fun experience for those who want to play as though they are in Vegas, Atlantic City, or any other major casino environment on the planet.

Play When and From Wherever You Want

If you work in the mornings and like to play in the afternoon or evenings, you’re free to do so at your leisure.

Online Gambling Craps

But even those who have unusual working patterns who can only play at random hours can find games whenever they desire. The beauty of playing on any of our recommended live dealer craps casinos is that there’s always a game happening.

If that’s not enough, you can also play live dealer craps via mobile or through one of the site’s live dealer casino apps. Regardless of whether you want to try your luck on your smartphone, laptop, or tablet, you have the option to choose where and how you want to play.

Not only do you have the benefit of playing live dealer craps for real money from the comfort of your own home, but you can also customize things as you please.

Many of our recommended sites allow players to not only choose their own dealers but also to select settings according to how they want to play. From color schemes and skins, to the look of chips and the layout, you would be surprised at what can be done these days.

But perhaps what’s more importantly is that you get to bring the casino experience to you. That means no gratuity, overpriced drinks, or food that you don’t want to eat. The games and dealers are streamed to you, so you get to play in your own space and in your preferred setup.

Say Goodbye to RNG Software

Random number generator (RNG) software has been around for the best part of four decades, and is still used today.

And while online craps with RNG software can still be a fun experience, there are many players who are left a little underwhelmed by the way things work. With live dealer craps, things have a distinctive human feel, and that can make a big difference to your overall experience.

Playing craps for real money on dated software with poor graphics is no competition for the live dealer experience. It’s also easier to feel as though things work in a more natural and harmonious way when playing with human dealers.

When you’re on any of our live dealer craps casinos, you are guaranteed a safe and secure experience.

Online Gambling Craps Casino Sites

Our sites are fully licensed and regulated with official software and the most modern security processes available. We never recommend sites that are anything but completely trustworthy and reputable.

That means you can get down to playing live craps safe in the knowledge that you are in good hands.

Craps for Beginners

If you’re a complete craps novice, we have some very helpful information available that can speed up your learning process. But before we get to that, just know that craps is a pretty straightforward game to play, and learning the basics should not take long at all.

As live dealer craps is effectively the same as playing at a casino, you might be unaware of some of the important stuff such as rules, odds, and perhaps even basic strategy. But adopting this knowledge will be beneficial to your chances of winning.

Below, you will find links to information that covers the A to Z of craps and help you hit the tables with confidence.

While we are confident that we have covered everything there is to know about playing live dealer craps online, we also know that you might have some additional queries.

Below, you will find frequently asked questions pertaining to online live dealer craps, and our answers to those questions.

Is it legal to play live dealer craps online?

That depends on whether it is legal to gamble in the jurisdiction where you are located.

As there is no single piece of legislation that governs real money online gambling, you must first make sure that gambling is not prohibited where you are based. If you need some help finding this out, you can check out our guide to online gambling and jurisdictions.

If you want peace of mind, then playing at our recommended live dealer craps casinos is naturally what we would suggest.

The reason being is that we can say, with absolute confidence, that these sites are legitimate and 100% safe. Unfortunately, we cannot vouch for any site we don’t recommend. This is because we have either found them to be unsafe following a review or have not reviewed them at all.

Is the house edge particularly high in craps?

Players who use the optimal betting method in craps can bring the house edge down to 1.36%, which makes craps pretty good by all standards.

For the purposes of comparison, double-zero roulette is 5.26%, baccarat is 1.06%, while blackjack can be as low as 0.28%. That said, there is more to playing craps than the house edge. The casual, exciting nature of the game makes it a hit regardless of the fact that it has one of the lowest house edges of any casino game.

While there are many similarities between craps and sic bo, these are two games that are different.

In sic bo, every roll of the dice results in a win or loss on bets. Craps, on the other hand, relies on certain rolls before they can be judged to be winning or losing bets. Craps is more popular in the west while sic bo is huge in the east, but both games are fun.

How much money can I win playing live craps?

There is no way to tell how much money you can win playing craps, as this would depend on your stake and how much luck you have at the tables.

As live dealer craps is a game of chance, the usual laws of betting apply. You will win some bets and lose others. It is important to know that any gambling game comes with a chance of losing money, so never bet more than you can afford.

You might have forgotten our recommended live dealer craps casinos at the top of this page, but we don’t blame you.

Having covered so much, your brain might be busy processing what you have learned today. So, once again, here are the best online casinos for live dealer craps.

Enjoy!
