But there are also many confusing stories about the origin of the crap betting. Crap is generally a gambling amusement with a device called dice. It is a cube like object with some specific numbers in it. And then it is been rolled with in a certain area among the participants. In the past years of the gambling it was generally termed as the Hazard or the Asart. It was during that time of the history when Sir William an Englishman with his knights used crap betting as a past time. It was all during the time of crusades in the period of 1125A.D.

And this pronunciation again goes back to those Arabic accents of ?azzah or al zar?. Also there are various views originating from the minds of the British and then transferred to the French. So there is hardly any certainty regarding its origin. But apart from all these, while traveling round the rivers of the Mississippi a dice maker made another playing rule adding a mode of shooter or the man who rolls the dice. According to this the game was to be played against the shooter or against him. And this brought the code of modern crap which is still famous round the corner of the casinos.

Then it was considered as the status of the high profile and the famous, but gradually and slowly it got spread to the entire gamblers of the world. Easy and comfortable means of rules has really a great effect on the influence of the game to the gamblers.

Right from the new and the fresher, every one was intended to grab the game. Craps history took another turn during the initial period of the 19th century. After some trial and the error Sir John H Winn an Englishmen forwarded some simplification it its rules. And it worked out so popular that even the modern crab can?t deny those rules. And hence he was best known as the father of the modern cab. He introduced some slabs of betting like the ?Don?t Pass line? bets and the ?Pass line bets?. This helped a lot for the participants and the casinos for the better play of the game with a smoother condition.

The best reason for its popularity around the globe was during the World War I and II.
