Craps Lingo
OK craps newbies, here we go. Now. Walking up to a craps table can be pretty intimidating. First there's the people. Eyeing you. Checking you out....
However, if you're a woman, and new to the game, you will be welcomed with open arms. You, missy, are good luck, Congratulations!
If you are male, and a virgin craps player, DO NOT TELL ANYONE. You, sir, are bad luck. Sorry to be the one to break it to you.
Now, as if that weren't bad enough, there's still that whole thing about other people's bets being entirely dependent on what YOU roll. How's that for pressure? Yeah.
And last but not least, there's the slang. Craps slang.
You know, that craps lingo that streams out of dealers and savvy players mouths like they're calling an auction. Don't fret, friends of GamblingBee. We will show you the ropes. But wait! You say. We turn slowly towards you. Yes, we reply? What good will knowing craps terms do me if I'm playing alone online? We shake our heads sadly. Craps lingo isn't for other people, friend. It is for you, for your heart and soul and inner craps player! Speak it to your computer.
In fact, Gambling Bee encourages you to yell at your computer, kiss it, talk to it and thank it when you're are gaming online. It's part of the experience. So practice those terms, check out our online craps rules for more info, and then take a peak at our online casino reviews to pick a place to try out all your new fancy craps lingo.
