The Ultimate “How To” Guide to Bubble Craps and Bubble Crapless Craps by ICONIC21

The Basics: Two Versions, One Goal 

Craps is a fast-paced game where players bet on what two dice will show.  

Both versions follow the same steps but choosing Traditional or Crapless changes how the game will start. 

Phase 1: The “Come Out” Roll 

Each round starts with this roll. The outcome decides if you win, lose, or move on to the next phase. 

Here’s what sets ICONIC21 apart: In Bubble Craps, rolling a 2, 3, or 12 means you lose right away. In Bubble Crapless Craps, these numbers become Points instead, so you stay in the game and have more chances to win. 

Phase 2: The Point Phase 

If a Point is established, any number that didn’t cause an immediate win or loss, the hunt begins. 

• To Win: The shooter must roll the Point number again. 

• To Lose: The shooter rolls a 7 before repeating the Point. This is the “Seven Out,” which ends the round. 

Core Betting Options 

Pass Line (The Foundation)

This is the main bet in Craps and you place it before the Come Out roll. 

• Bubble Craps: Win on 7/11; lose on 2/3/12. 

• Bubble Crapless Craps: Win on 7; no instant losses at the start. 

Don’t Pass (The “Dark Side”)

This bet is available in Bubble Craps and functions as a bet against the shooter. You win if the shooter rolls a 2 or 3 on the Come Out, or a 7 before the Point. 

In Bubble Crapless Craps, this option is removed because numbers 2, 3, 11, and 12 are transformed into Point numbers. This mechanic creates the game’s “no-loss” style, ensuring players cannot “crap out” on the initial roll. 

Odds Bets (The Professional Edge)

Once a Point is set, ICONIC21 allows you to place Odds Bets behind your Pass Line or Come bets. In Bubble Craps, you can also place Odds behind the Don’t Pass Bar and Don’t Come Bar. These pay higher ratios to reflect the mathematical difficulty of hitting the Point: 

• 6 or 8: Pays 6:5 

• 5 or 9: Pays 3:2 

• 4 or 10: Pays 2:1 

• 3 or 11: Pays 3:1 (Crapless Only) 

• 2 or 12: Pays 6:1 (Crapless Only) 

Place to Win Bets

A strategic way to back specific numbers to appear before a 7. ICONIC21 offers competitive payouts: 

Specialty & Side Bets 

One-Roll (Proposition) Bets 

These bets resolve on the very next roll and offer high-risk, high-reward excitement: 

• Field Bet: Wins if the next roll is 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12. 

• Any Craps: Wins if the next roll is 2, 3, or 12 (7:1 payout). 

• Seven Bet: Wins if the next roll is 7 (4:1 payout). 

• Hardways: A bet that a number (4, 6, 8, or 10) will be rolled as a “double” (e.g., 3+3) before a 7 or an “easy” combination (e.g., 4+2). 

Achievement Bets: Small, Tall, and All 

To add more variety to the session, ICONIC21 features multi-roll side bets. These track every number rolled and stay active until a 7 appears or the mission is complete. 

• Small (30:1): Roll all numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 before a 7. 

• Tall (30:1): Roll all numbers 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 before a 7. 

• All (150:1): The ultimate jackpot. Roll every number (2 through 12) before a 7. 

Strategic Summary: Which Version to Choose? 

• Bubble Craps: Ideal for players who prefer traditional table dynamics and the strategic balance of the classic ‘Pass/Don’t Pass’ experience

• Bubble Crapless Craps: The perfect “beginner-friendly” entry point. It eliminates the sting of instant losses on the first roll, making it a high-action, high-retention favourite for modern iGaming lobbies. 

Whether you play it safe or aim for the 150:1 “All” jackpot, ICONIC21 provides the data, the speed, and the atmosphere to make every roll count.
