Be smart, play smart, and pickup craps the ideal way!
Dice and dice games date all the way back to the Middle Eastern Crusades, but modern craps is approximately 100 years old. Modern craps come about from the 12th Century Anglo game referred to as Hazard. No one absolutely knows the origin of the game, but Hazard is believed to have been made up by the Anglo, Sir William of Tyre, around the 12th century. It’s theorized that Sir William’s knights played Hazard during a blockade on the castle Hazarth in 1125 AD. The title Hazard was gotten from the citadel’s name.
Early French colonizers brought the game Hazard to Canada. In the 1700s, when displaced by the British, the French moved down south and found sanctuary in the south of Louisiana where they at a later time became known as Cajuns. When they departed Acadia, they took their favored game, Hazard, with them. The Cajuns streamlined the game and made it fair mathematically. It’s said that the Cajuns adjusted the title to craps, which is gotten from the term for the bad luck throw of two in the game of Hazard, referred to as "crabs."
From Louisiana, the game moved to the Mississippi river boats and all over the country. A great many acknowledge the dice builder John H. Winn as the creator of current craps. In the early 1900s, Winn built the modern craps setup. He created the Don’t Pass line so gamblers could wager on the dice to not win. Later, he developed the spaces for Place bets and added the Big 6, Big 8, and Hardways.
