When it comes to playing the casino game of craps, there surely is more excitement to be had at the brick ‘n mortar table, as opposed to the online casino. And not that playing online craps isn’t fun, there’s just something about having other people around the table shouting out numbers and rooting on a hot shooter. Yet, with all this excitement, comes some distractions too.

Serious craps players, like the columnist and author, Frank Scoblete know this all too well. In fact, Scoblete recently wrote a little something to to this effect in his column at online gambling directory, Casino City Times. In it, Frank addressed questions written in by another craps player who was considering playing online craps.

The player, who apparently is a big fan of Scoblete and has read three of his gambling books, asked whether Scoblete thought dice outcomes were different for online craps than the brick ‘n mortar version. In other words, he was wondering if online craps was rigged or had worse odds than his local casino. According to the player, he noticed less sevens and more two’s and twelve’s come up in the online version.

If you’re familiar with the rules of craps, you will know that is not a good thing. I suppose this begs the question, what version of online craps software was this player using and was his mistrust of online gambling coloring his comparison of seven’s, two’s and three’s. He definitely didn’t undertake a mathematical analysis to validate his suspicions.

And while the player could have indeed come across some less than favorable odds, that would only be because he wasn’t playing on a reputable, certified casino software platform. In short, Scoblete set the player on the right path, citing the odds are the same in both versions and that he would actually have less distractions playing online craps (full circle). Rack another one up for online gambling!
