If you’re watching for excitement, boisterousness and more excitement than you can stand, then craps is the casino game to play.

Craps is an exciting casino game with high-rollers, budget gamblers, and everybody in between. If you’re a people-watcher this is one game that you will want to study. There’s the high roller, gambling with a big bankroll and making loud declarations when he wagers across the board, "$520 across," you’ll hear the whale say. He’s the gambler to observe at this table and they know it. They will either succeed big or don’t win big and there’s nothing in the middle.

There’s the budget gambler, maybe trying to acquaint himself with the high-roller. He’ll tell the other players of books he’s read on dice positioning and hover around the hottest player at the craps table, eager to talk and "share ideas and thoughts".

My preferred players at the table are the true gents from the old times. These senior guys are ordinarily even-tempered, generally gentle and will frequently offer hints from the "good ole days."

There are a great many other personalities that you will find around a filled Craps table. When you bite the bullet and commit to participate in the game, make certain you use proper etiquette. Find a position on the rail and place your money down in front of you in the "come" space. Never do this when the dice are rolling or you will be known as the last personality I wanted to mention, the jerk.
