The background of Craps dates all the way back to a dice game known as Hazard, which goes back to Bernard de Mandeville in New Orleans in Eightteen Thirteen. Hazard is thought to be a offshoot of Azzahr, which means ‘the die’ a game enjoyed by Arabs.
The game developed as it spread out from the Arab regions to Europe and then to England. By the early 18th century, cultivated established rules for Hazard had been established. France started playing the British variation of Hazard and is believed to have been imported to America by early French settlers. In the mid-1700s, when the English beat the French in British North America, the French colonizers moved to Louisiana. Dice were played on river boats, casinos and wharfs and a streamlined ‘American’ version of Craps was created. The game moved west and is a favored game that is competed in all over the United States and around the world.
The name ‘Craps’ is believed to be a French expression of the term crabs, which alludes to two ‘1s’. There are 2 general kinds of Craps that are bet on-street Craps and bank Craps. Street caps, accurately called because it is played on the streets is where a hurler makes a point and then attempts to make that point. The wagering is made either for or opposed to the player and another person must cover the bet for the game of craps to carry on.
In bank Craps, which is the popular game, competed in in casinos, the casino funds the game. The participants compete with the house-the casino covers all of the bets of all of the players. Craps used to be a quite well-loved game but in the last 20 years had split itself and other games, like poker and twenty-one became more well-known. However, Craps is observing a surge in recognition once again in web casinos and in land based casinos.
