Question by Dub Bassist: How do you play street craps (shoot dice, etc)?
I understand the rules of craps and know how it is played in a casino. Also, I understand how the betting in casino craps works. But what about street/private craps/dice/7-11?

What I’m not sure about is how the betting goes. I assume the main difference between street and casino variations is that in casino craps there is a casino/bank, which (i think) is absent when you play it with your friends, unless someone acts as the “banker”

Please don’t just give me a link because I’ve searched the internet and have found several sites offering such vague instructions as “the betters have to cover the shooter”. I don’t know what this means exactly, so if someone could explain to me how the betting process works, I’d appreciate it
are there ‘pass’ bets in addition to ‘no pass’ that can be made in the street variety?

Do the betters individual match the amount the shooter bets?
