Point

Craps

The box number (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10) established by the come-out roll when the shooter does not roll a natural (7 or 11) or craps (2, 3, 12). Once the point is established, the puck (marker) is turned to the “on” side (white) and placed on the corresponding box number on the layout. The shooter’s objective becomes to roll the point number again before rolling a seven. If the point is made, the pass line wins, a new round begins with a new come-out roll, and the shooter retains the dice. If a seven is rolled before the point (“seven out”), the pass line loses, and the dice pass to the next shooter.
