If you are on the hunt for thrills, noise and more enjoyment than you can likely stand, then craps is the only game to play.

Craps is a quick-paced gambling game with whales, budget gamblers, and everyone in between. If you are a people-watcher this is one casino game that you will like to observe. There is the whale, playing with a huge bankroll and making boisterous announcements when she wagers across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty dollars across," you will hear her say. She’s the gambler to watch at this game and they know it. The whale will either win big-time or lose big and there is no in the middle.

There is the budget gambler, most likely trying to acquaint himself with the high-roller. he/she will tell the other competitors of books she’s read up on, on dice setting and hang around the hottest tosser at the craps table, all set to confer and "share ideas and thoughts".

There’s the student of Frank Scoblete most recent craps class. Even though Frank is the best there is, his devotee has to do his homework. This player will take 5 minutes to set his dice, so practice patience.

My favorite people at the table are the true gentlemen from the good old days. These elderly gentlemen are generally patient, almost always kind and will very likely always offer tips from the "great old days."

When you take the chance and decide to join the game, make sure you utilize proper etiquette. Find a position on the rail and lay your money down in front of you in the "come" spot. Never do this when the dice are being tossed or you will become known as the final character I wished to mention, the jerk.
