If you are looking for excitement, noise and more fun than you might be able to bear, then craps is the only game to take part in.

Craps is a fast-paced game with high-rollers, low-rollers, and everybody in the middle. If you are a people-watcher this is one casino game that you will like to observe. There’s the high-roller, playing with a huge amount of cash and making loud announcements when she wagers across the board, "520 dollars across," you will hear him say. She’s the player to observe at this table and they know it. The whale will either win big-time or lose big-time and there is no in the middle.

There’s the low-roller, most likely trying to acquaint himself with the high-roller. He will tell the other gamblers of books he’s read through on dice throwing and hang around the most accomplished shooter at the table, prepared to confer and "pick each others brains".

There is the devotee of Frank Scoblete latest craps workshop. Even though Frank is the very best there is, his devotee needs to do his homework. This player will require 5 mins to setup his dice, so apply patience.

My preferred players at the table are the true chaps from the good old days. These senior gents are generally tolerant, almost always generous and most likely will always share advice from the "great old days."

When you take the plunge and decide to join the game, be certain you use proper etiquette. Locate a position on the rail and place your cash down in front of you in the "come" area. Never do this when the dice are moving or you’ll quickly be referred to as the last character I wanted to mention, the jerk.
