Why play craps online
Anyone who has ever spent some time around a craps table in a land casino will tell you that it can be a pretty unforgettable experience. A lot of noise, a lot of pressure and nothing quite beat the excitement of a shooter going on a roll and making a number of straight passes. When this happens not only the shooter sees their chip count rise dramatically, but also everyone else around the table that are clutching on the shooter's coat tails.

You would think that everyone round the table would be happy but that is not always the case, as there are always a large number of gamblers who will bet for the house and hope that the shooter's run of luck will end and they will get paid out on their bets.

That's why it's understandable why the atmosphere around a craps table is usually always white hot, especially as the croupiers wind up both sides of the table and as the shooter's run continues they speed up the betting and increase the pressure.


Casino fans either love or hate this action and that why many of them were happy to see that when online casinos first began to sprout up around ten years ago, there were many to see that craps was high up on the list of games that can be played online. Since then online Craps has become one of the most popular games in internet casinos. Certainly more tranquil that the land casino version, it still offers all the betting possibilities and with the pressure taken out of the game entirely a player can take all the time that they need to place their bets, and alter them as the point is played out and the percentages begin to waver in favour of the house.


That’s probably the best part of playing craps online from home – you can control your atmosphere, your playing, your scheduling for wagering and throwing of the dice. You don’t have a pit boss pushing, which can lead to unnecessary haste and ultimate mistakes. By taking control of your online game you can look for the advantages of lowest house edge, you can ease into the game at your own speed. The nightmare of trying to place a bet is a thing of the past, you can even place all of your bets automatically and sit back and watch the action unfold, till the shooter makes the point or throws the dreaded seven, and the whole sequence starts anew.
 

Online craps players soon get used to the powerful software and true to life graphics that online casinos have become known for, and with new gaming technology constantly being introduced, the fond memories of being pushed and shoved around a craps table are slowly starting to fade. Instead they are being replaced by the civilised thrill and spills of playing craps online, when you want and often where you want, thanks to the development in WiFi technology and smart phones. Instead of going to a casino to play craps, instead you can take it with you.
