When throwing the dice in a Craps game, the player is expected to hit the farthest wall at the opposite end of the table. The dice may not be slid across the table and must be tossed. They may not be thrown higher than the eye level of the dealers.
The dice in a Craps game must not land in the boxman's bank or on any of the dealer's working stacks of money.
When either of the dice land on chips or markers not in the boxmans bank or the dealers working stacks, the number that would be on top if the object the die is leaning on were removed, is the number that is used to make the call.
If a die hits a player or dealer and rolls back onto the table, the roll counts as long as the person being hit did not interfere with the die.
In most cases in a Craps game, the shooter may "set" the dice to a particular configuration, but if they do, they must be quick about it so as not to delay the game. Some casinos have "no setting" rules, and the player must throw the dice as given to him.
Do not try to place money in the dealer's hand or expect the dealers to hand you chips. Dealers are not allowed to touch the players at any time. Players are expected to place cash on the layout and announce "change only" or a specific bet and amount. The dealer will then place chips on the layout or in front of the players.
When offered the dice to shoot, a player may pass the dice to the next player without fear of offending anyone; however, keep in mind that at least one player must always be a "shooter" betting on either the pass line or don't pass line for the game to continue.
Players in a Craps game are expected to tip the dealers, especially if they are winning. Most of the dealer's income is generated from tips. The most common way to tip is simply to toss chips onto the table and say "for the boys". Another method is to place a bet next to your bet and call out "dealers". A "two-way" bet is one that is half and half for the players and dealers.
After the come-out roll, it is considered extremely rude to say the word "seven", as that is considered bad luck. This is a guaranteed way of offending other players.
It is considered bad luck to change dice in the middle of a roll.
Center bets are made by tossing chips to the center of the table and calling out the intended bet; the stickman will then place the chips correctly for you.
It is not considered rude to correct a dealer that you feel has made a error. Mistakes happen and disputes are often resolved to the player's benefit, mainly in the interest in keeping their business.
It is considered rude to "late bet", or make wagers while the dice are no longer in the middle of the table. While entirely permissible, excessive late betting will generally garner a warning.
