If you are wanting thrills, noise and more entertainment than you can likely endure, then craps is simply the game to wager on.
Craps is a fast-paced game with whales, low-rollers, and everybody in the middle. If you’re a people-watcher this is one game that you’ll love to observe. There’s the high roller, gambling with a huge amount of cash and making boisterous announcements when she wagers across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty dollars across," you will hear them say. She’s the gambler to watch at this table and they know it. The whale will either win big or lose big-time and there’s no in between.
There’s the budget gambler, possibly attempting to acquaint himself with the high-roller. He will inform the other bettors of books he’s read on dice setting and converge on the hottest shooter at the craps table, ready to talk and "pick each others brains".
There is the disciple of Frank Scoblete latest craps class. Even though Frank is the best there is, his student will have to do his homework. This guy will take 5 minutes to set his dice, so apply patience.
My favorite players at the craps table are the real chaps from the good old days. These elderly gentlemen are generally composed, almost always congenial and most likely will always give tips from the "good ole days."
When you take the chance and decide to join the game, make sure you utilize appropriate etiquette. Find a place on the rail and place your money down in front of you in the "come" area. Never do this when the dice are moving or you will quickly be referred to as the very last character I wanted to talk about, the jerk.
