I found the game described at the following link:

If I understand it properly there are a number of different wagers one can make.
The house advantage differs based on the wager.

Looks like a game of all hop bets. Is that accurate? Guess I’ll spend my Krone on Harley shirts!

Thanks, Skinny

Got to the table to study how it was played. Danes love this version, the bets were heavy on any seven and hop 7’s.

I took a spot at the end of the 8′ (maybe shorter) table at left base so I could sort of throw a right handed stick right throw of sorts. I bought in and I bet 20dkk on any seven on the shooter before me to make sure I’d get the dice. I lost the bet (every bet is a hop bet effectively). On the next roll, the shooter lost by hitting the high after setting low dice as the target.

I’d decided to bet the box only. Minimum on all bets was 20dkk, 50dkk on low, high, any pair I believe.
I put 20dkk on each box number and rolled a hard six. That set the target as low dice and paid me 6:1, I reset the box and railed 20dkk. My next roll was a 5. Good roll, low dice so I got 7:1, reset my lost box bets, and railed 40dkk. My next roll was an 8. High dice, ending my hand, paid 6:1, railed it all and walked away up 60dkk or $10. Was fun to throw one hand, but stinks that I threw 3 solid box numbers yet lost the dice on an eight!

On to real Craps on my cruise back to the states!

Sounds crazy. Still don’t know if I understand the game. But still an interesting post. Thank you for sharing.

Rose and Doc

Doc, basically, instead of setting a point, you set high or low as a target, then shoot until you hit the wrong side. So by setting low with a six, I was ok with the 5, but the 8 was bad as a high number and Ended my hand. There are other bets but every bet is a hop bet.

I suspect they deal this very similar to roulette.

In other words, I am guessing it starts with people placing their bets on the layout until the dealer declares, "No More Bets". He may even pass his hand across the layout to indicate no more bets will be accepted.

When he says, "Do Throw" that would be similar to the croupier setting the ball in motion on the roulette wheel.

After a successful throw, the dealer may mark the winning wager. He might even put a token on the winning wager. After that he would remove all the losing wagers, leave the "stand off" wagers in place along with those that are still in play.

After removing the token, the players would be allowed to remove their winnings.

Betting would then be allowed for the next throw and it would begin a new round.

Is it anything like that at all?

Skinny,
They weren’t quite as stringent as that and now that you mention it, it did feel a little like Roulette.

One dealer handles the whole table, being such a small one. They kept track of rolls on a sign just like on Roulette so you could see how the rolls have progressed, but no clear marker on which side of the table is the target side, which can be confusing.

After all wagers are out, the dealer handed out a pair of dice by setting them in a decent spot, and pushing them the last 12" with the stick. The boat, kept on the rail to the dealer’s left, had four pair of dice: Blue, Red, Yellow, Green…. if anything funky happens with the dice (dice out, etc) they give you another pair, and the dealer did allow them to choose the color, but again, only one pair of each color. Upon throwing the dice, the dealer simply tapped the winning number or combo with the stick, which is hilariously only about 2′ long. They then collected all losing bets, and paid the winning bets.

Hardline,
Thanks for sharing! Doesn’t sound like a very lucrative game but the experience sounds fascinating. I am sure you will never forget playing "Craps" in Denmark. It is worth the loss of a few bucks for the happy memories you will have forever! 😀
