Bettors at a Craps Game
If you are wanting excitement, noise and more fun than you can endure, then craps is the only game to wager on.
Craps is a fast-paced gambling game with high-rollers, low-rollers, and everybody in the middle. If you’re a people-watcher this is one game that you’ll love to watch. There’s the big spender, gambling with a large bankroll and making boisterous proclamations when she bets across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty dollars across," you’ll hear them say. He’s the gambler to watch at this table and they know it. They will either win big-time or lose big-time and there is no in between.
There is the low-roller, possibly attempting to acquaint themselves with the whales. He will let the other bettors of books he’s read up on, on dice tossing and bum around the hottest shooter at the table, all set to confer and "pick each others minds".
There is the disciple of Frank Scoblete latest craps class. Despite the fact that Frank is the best there is, his student has to do his homework. This player will take 5 minutes to arrange his dice, so practice patience.
My preferred individuals at the table are the true chaps from the good old days. These experienced guys are generally patient, almost always generous and will very likely always share hints from the "good ole days."
When you take the chance and choose to join the game, make sure you use good etiquette. Find a spot on the rail and put your money down in front of you in the "come" area. Refrain from doing this when the pair of dice are being tossed or you’ll be referred to as the very last character I wished to talk of, the jerk.
