Players at a Craps Table
If you are on the hunt for thrills, noise and more entertainment than you can likely endure, then craps is the only game to bet on.
Craps is a fast-paced game with high-rollers, budget gamblers, and everyone in between. If you are a people-watcher this is one game that you will absolutely enjoy observing. There is the whale, buying in with a huge amount of cash and making loud announcements when she wagers across the board, "520 dollars across," you’ll hear the whale say. He’s the gambler to observe at this game and they know it. The whale will either win big-time or lose big and there is no in between.
There’s the budget gambler, most likely attempting to acquaint themselves with the whales. he/she will inform the other bettors of books she’s read up on, on dice throwing and bum around the hottest shooter at the craps table, prepared to confer and "share ideas and thoughts".
There is the student of Frank Scoblete most recent craps class. While Frank is the very best there is, his devotee will have to do his homework. This player will take 5 minutes to setup his dice, so apply patience.
My preferred people at the table are the true gents from the good old days. These experienced guys are usually composed, mostly generous and will almost always give tips from the "good ole days."
When you take the chance and choose to join the game, be certain you use good etiquette. Find a spot on the rail and place your money down in front of you in the "come" spot. Refrain from doing this when the dice are being tossed or you will become referred to as the very last character I wished to mention, the jerk.
