If you are wanting excitement, noise and more entertainment than you can bear, then craps is the only game to gamble on.

Craps is a quick-paced game with whales, budget gamblers, and everyone in between. If you are a people-watcher this is one game that you’ll like to observe. There’s the high-roller, playing with a big amount of money and making loud proclamations when he bets across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty 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-time and there’s no in between.

There is the budget gambler, most likely attempting to acquaint himself with the high-roller. He will let the other competitors of books he’s read up on, on dice setting and hang around the hottest shooter at the table, all set to talk and "share ideas and thoughts".

There’s the student of Frank Scoblete latest craps class. Although Frank is the best there is, his student must do his homework. This player will require five minutes to arrange his dice, so practice patience.

My preferred people at the craps table are the real gents from the old days. These experienced gentlemen are usually composed, mostly congenial and most likely will always give pointers from the "good ole days."

When you take the chance and choose to participate in the game, make sure you use proper etiquette. Find a place on the rail and put your cash on the table in front of you in the "come" area. Never ever do this when the dice are moving or you’ll quickly be referred to as the last personality I wished to mention, the jerk.
