Come or Don’t Come. Hollywood Casino will offer additional odds; be sure to ask the Dealer or Supervisor how much you may bet. FIELD BET - A Field bet can be made on every roll of the dice. If 3, 4, 9, 10, or 11 is rolled, you win even money for your bet. If a 2 or 12 is rolled you win double your bet. A Field bet loses if a 5, 6, 7, or 8 is. CRAPS HOW TO PLAY The player whose turn it is to roll the dice is the “shooter.” The results of the shooter’s rolls will determine the outcome for all players who bet either with him/her or against him/her. On the shooter’s first roll, or “come-out,” players wager by placing chips on either the Pass line or Don’t Pass line. Craps can be played online or in a real casino, and it is one of the easiest casino games to learn. Depending on where you're from, you can even play Craps at a number of top-rated online casinos. It is a simple game and maintains only a few basic bets that one should grasp to get started playing Craps, namely the “passline” and “don’t. During a trip to Vegas, I decided to check out the live craps action at Aria. The craps table in this video was a $25 minimum, which was out of my budget fo.

I'm going to LV in a few weeks and am trying to learn Craps before I go.
I understand that there is a table minimum for Craps. I'll be staying at Ceasers Palace and it looks like it is $10.
Does that $10 minimum only apply to pass come don't bets? Or does it apply to everything (hard ways, buy, place, etc.)?

At a ten dollar minimum table: LINE BETS and FIELD bets must be at least ten dollars UNLESS they are bets for the dealers.
A PLACE BET is viewed as a COME BET wherein you've selected the number, so a PLACE BET would be subject to the minimum and any PLACE BET of SIX or EIGHT should be 12 dollars but if you want to cheat yourself by making it only ten its allowable, though foolish and any decent dealer will encourage you to make it 12.
Hardways bets can be the lowest chip on the table which is usually ONE dollar, if you want. Even at a ten dollar table. However, you should not be making hardways bets if you are a beginner.
BE sure to attend the lessons that are offered. And I recommend that you start out playing fairly early in the day when things are likely to be somewhat slow and dealers will be perfectly able to assist you without slowing everyone else down. Note: Feel free to let the dealers know you are a 'newbie'... they will pay extra attention to you and will probably find out you are newbie fairly soon if you don't tell them.
Remember, it is never NECESSARY to tip but it is often useful for you to do it and if you tip early in a game its best for you since they the crew will notice you right from the start, but always remember it is never mandatory and if you feel unhappy in any way there are other tables and other casinos.

I just returned from the strip and there were lots of casinos offering $5 tables during the daytime. You definitely want to play a lower minimum table if you are just starting out. Same idea as above, if you want to Place 6 or 8 on a $5 table, you should make it a $6 bet.

My best advice is that when you are learning don't worry about winning, and bet the minimum bet on the pass line and observe for 100 rolls. 100 rolls lasts about an hour. The edge is 0.42% per roll and the volatility is very tiny winning almost half the time on average. So you can expect to lose 0.42% of your bet 100 times, which is about half of one unit's cost to watch for an hour while playing and having fun. That only costs (on average approximately) $5 per hour on a $10 table.
You will be giving up the chance to win big, but also avoiding the possibility to win big too.
Low volatility is a good idea in my opinion when you just want to take up space an observe the game and maybe get a free drink or two.

You will learn way more by playing craps
and might just forget everything you learned before playing for real as you start your first session of play.
Happens a lot.

The table minimum,
normally in Nevada,
applies to the *self-service area* of the craps layout,
in other words,
the bets that the player can make themselves (place on the felt)
without assistance from the dealer(s).
(any casino can set their own rules)
*self-service area*
Pass line
Pass Line Odds
Don't Pass
Don't Pass Odds

Big 6 (some layouts do not have this bet)
Big 8 (some layouts do not have this bet)
Some layouts also have a Fire Bet

I always want to win enough to buy the entire casino and live a life of luxury amidst hundreds of naked adoring young babes.

Another thing you can do is play the craps simulator (the one at the bottom of the page) here:

I played craps for the first time in May and this is all very useful advice, thanks, especially 7craps for laying that out. FWIW, they had me betting 10 on the PL, 1 on AC on the comeout, then place the 6-8 for 12 each and back my PL bet with 3x Odds. (I was the only player that morning and knew the dealers from the card pit. Feel free to comment on that bet strategy as well.) I was curious about Dr. Johnny's bet, where you place the 5-6-8-9 and buy the 4-10 (though as a newbie I would prefer to do it for $32 rather than $64). It's my money and all, but is it common that people put up and remove bets short of a point/7out, or is it a general nuisance to the dealers and/or table as a whole? If anybody else is playing that area, they're having to pick up my chips from all the rest, and hand them back; seems like a hassle to me but maybe that's how it goes? I wouldn't care if it were within my reach, but apparently that's an area that's strictly run by the dealers.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

It may sound counter-intuitive, but getting paid less frequently will allow you to have a better chance to win.
All those bets have fine edges per roll (except the Any Craps at 11.11% per roll). But if you want a good chance to win, patience in getting paid has its rewards.
The dealers will advise you to take as many bets as possible. Placing just the pass line and making no other bet has no hedge. When you add the crap-check, you are buying insurance. You are less likely to lose AS MUCH but you are squelching your opportunity to win by betting AGAINST the craps. No pain no gain, basically. That's the first improvement is get rid of the crap-check.
The next improvement would be instead of betting both the six and the eight for $12 each, bet just one of them for $24 instead and just be patient. Better yet would be to put an extra $25 or $26 on your pass line odds depending on what point is established at least until you max out the odds.
If a dealer could convince you, they would have you hop every number every roll insisting that you will always get paid $31 or $32 no matter what you roll. Forget that's a $5 or $6 loss per roll guaranteed, but you're winning money every roll!
Only a true fool would bet this way, but many people who only give away a portion of their ability to win (by preventing losses on crap numbers on the comeout) don't realize that they lose 1/3, 1/5, or 10/11ths of their pass line depending on what the point is set to. If the casino can hide the fact that this is a loss, the player may not realize that they have lost until the point is not made.
Some folks run illegal craps games and pay all odds at even money because people are the gullible.
The crap check is at least a little less obvious. But 11.11% of $1 is $0.11 per roll. That's six times the cost of your pass line bet for that insurance, and 26x the house edge per roll!!!
Don't think 'it's only a buck.' Look at the cost, not the 'savings when a crap occurs.'
You have to have risk to have a reward. Kill the risk and there is no reward left.
There is risk, also, in betting the wrong number. That's a good thing. Don't try to bet all the numbers to eliminate the risk that your number doesn't roll.
Just wait. Patience is key to winning in craps.

Absolutely true. It's also the key to boredom. The times that I remember most clearly at the craps table (rare as they were) were when a shooter was on a hot roll and I was making money on almost every toss of the dice. That's the adrenalin rush of the game. When the shooter has a cheering section and people are laughing and clapping and having a fun time.
