Why Is There No Craps At Indian Casinos
W e’re starting to receive questions about a fairly new variety of craps called “Bubble Craps.”We here at the Crapspit avoid this game (we explain why in a moment), so we don’t know the details of how to work the user display, the payoffs, etc., but we can provide a basic description so you can then decide if it might be something you’d want to check out in the casino. Craps is found in all Las Vegas casinos that have more than a handful of table games. The rules are generally the same from one casino to another except for the odds permitted online bets and whether the Field pays double or triple on 12. Because the casino knows that if you play craps with cards, the house edge increases because there are only so many cards and pairings. With dice there are set odds and the house edge is lower.
Clay Thompson explains why Arizona tribes don't offer roulette or craps at their gaming facilities:Back in the early 1990s – which is a pretty long view for Arizona – the state signed its first gaming compacts with Indian reservations. As you might recall or might imagine, there was quite a bit of huffing and puffing about this from various opponents, including predictions of moral turpitude, widespread crime, slow dancing, gum-chewing and a loss of journalistic integrity. As it turned out, the main thing that happened was that lots of people went to the reservations to play the slots and life on the reservations was improved by the inflow of all that money. In 2002, voters approved a set of new rules for Indian casinos that permitted table games such as blackjack and poker, but not roulette or craps. I guess they thought that would be just a bit much.Get the Story:
