Be smart, play clever, and master craps the ideal way!
Games that use dice and the dice themselves goes back to the Middle Eastern Crusades, but modern craps is just about a century old. Current craps formed from the ancient Anglo game called Hazard. Nobody absolutely knows the birth of the game, although Hazard is believed to have been made up by the Anglo, Sir William of Tyre, around the twelfth century. It’s presumed that Sir William’s paladins enjoyed Hazard through a siege on the fortification Hazarth in 1125 AD. The title Hazard was acquired from the fortification’s name.
Early French colonists brought the game Hazard to Nova Scotia. In the 1700s, when expelled by the English, the French headed south and settled in southern Louisiana where they after a while became Cajuns. When they left Acadia, they brought their best-loved game, Hazard, along. The Cajuns simplified the game and made it mathematically fair. It is said that the Cajuns adjusted the name to craps, which is derived from the name of the losing toss of two in the game of Hazard, referred to as "crabs."
From Louisiana, the game extended to the Mississippi riverboats and throughout the country. A few acknowledge the dice builder John H. Winn as the creator of current craps. In the early 1900s, Winn developed the modern craps layout. He put in place the Don’t Pass line so players can wager on the dice to not win. Later, he developed the spots for Place bets and added the Big 6, Big 8, and Hardways.
