craps

Casino game adapted from the game of hazard by Bernard de Mandeville in the early 19th century. It is played with two dice: a throw of 7 or 11 wins; a throw of 2, 3, or 12 loses.

If none of the above show on the first toss, the ‘shooter’ tries to repeat the number originally thrown before throwing a 7 or 11.
