==Rules of play against other players ("Street Craps")==
{{Unreferenced section|date=April 2018}}
Recreational or informal playing of craps outside of a casino is referred to as street craps or private craps.  The most notable difference between playing street craps and [[bank]] craps is that there is no bank or house to cover bets in street craps.  Players must bet against each other by covering or fading each other's bets for the game to be played. If money is used instead of chips and depending on the laws of where it is being played, street craps can be an illegal form of gambling.

There are many variations of street craps.  The simplest way is to either agree on or roll a number as the point, then roll the point again before rolling a seven.  Unlike more complex [[proposition bet]]s offered by casinos, street craps has more simplified betting options.  The shooter is required to make either a Pass or a Don't Pass bet if he wants to roll the dice.  Another player must choose to cover the shooter to create a stake for the game to continue.

If there are several players, the rotation of the player who must cover the shooter may change with the shooter (comparable to a blind in [[poker]]).  The person covering the shooter will always bet against the shooter.  For example, if the shooter made a "Pass" bet, the person covering the shooter would make a "Don't Pass" bet to win.  Once the shooter is covered, other players may make Pass/Don't Pass bets, or any other proposition bets, as long as there is another player willing to cover.
