Craps Is A Game of Strange Beliefs
by Larry on Friday, January 29th, 2010
Are you a superstitious person? You know, the kind of person who will not open an umbrella inside a house, will not wander below an open ladder and is compelled whirl around 3 times when stepping over a crack in the cement?
Here’s a number of the more popular craps folklores compiled by a few of the great craps players. By the way, they believe in most of this absurdness too!
1. If the stickman changes, in the middle of a throw, a 7 will be next.
two. If a drink attendant approaches the table, a seven will be next.
three. If the dice being rolled hits a player’s chips, a 7 is likely.
4. If the dice being rolled hits the glass, a seven will surface.
5. If there is a lot of talking amongst the dealers, constant sevens.
six. If the dice are rolled from the table, seven is going to be the following number.
7. If a new pair of dice are asked for, 7 is going to be next.
eight. If anybody bellows out the number "seven", a 7 will surely follow.
All of this might sound like a whole lot of zilch to you but now and then you will be involved in an active game where the bones are passing a little too frequently. If you keep tabs, you will notice that many of the superstitions are, in fact, happening.
You’ll notice that the stickman changes a little too regularly, that in place of 1 cocktail stewardess, the table now has 2 hostesses serving drinks and a number of other weird things that ultimately mean a seven is going to be rolled by the shooter.
Keep in mind, you can always bring your wagers off the table and wait until the next tosser. You can also turn your bets off, but if you do, do not turn them back on, because if you do… a seven will be next!
