1. Each player shall, prior to a new shooter's initial come out roll, place his or her fire bet on the numbered designated area for the placement of fire bets that is closest to his or her position at the craps table.

2. Whenever there is a voluntary or compulsory surrender of the dice by a shooter pursuant to 13:69F-1.11(a) prior to the throwing of a loser 7, any pending fire bet shall be settled upon the successor shooter throwing a loser 7.

3. Once all fire bets are placed, the dealer shall bring in each fire bet in numerical order and place it on the corresponding number of the designated area in front of the craps bank of chips, where such bets shall remain until they are either lost or paid.

Each fire bet point marker shall be visually distinguishable from and have a diameter larger than any authorized gaming chip. Fire bet point markers shall be maintained by games personnel at the craps table.
