Video craps

Damn good point marcus!

But you don't get to roll the bones. Sorry, pushing a button, to me, makes it a slot. I have yet to play one. I have a buddy who played one, just to while-away some time before dinner. He says he enjoyed it. Plus, it didn't cost him too much. I say I will probably not play one. It just does not look like the game we all know and love (and sometimes despise.) My 2 cents.
I've played these machines before. You're right, they are NOT as much fun as the "real thing". However, when you're the shooter...well, button presser...it is fun to hover your hand over the button while screaming, "Big Money, Big Money, And...STOP!" like it was Press Your Luck from the 1980's!! =D I'm Peter Tamarket!

Funny. "No Whammy, No Whammy...NO WHAMMY!"

While I've watched this being played, once the point gets established, I've tended to see many long rolls before a 7 comes. But yes, points are earned although some machines in some locations may have restrictions (with a sticky label possibly on the machine).

I'm saying this because I seem to remember seeing at Plaza Casino in Downtown LV a label saying that it could not be used for Freeplay or I think other promotions (maybe such as multiple points).

And the commission. I'm no math major but some joints don't pay right for placed points. Good luck!
I played this at the Palms and it was fun for a diversion. More like slots than real craps but would be good for novices to learn and not be intimidated. No points though at the Palms when I was there.
