Thread: Craps- GAME fine tunning.

How come my cancel button does not work when the user is asked to place a bet and he hits the cancel button?
if the user hits the cancel button how do i make it end the round and end the game (terminate program)?
the code in question is highlighted in red font and I am also open to any suggestions that might make my program better

thank you that did the trick
