If you are on the hunt for thrills, noise and more entertainment than you can likely endure, then craps is the only game to enjoy.

Craps is a quick-paced gambling game with whales, low-rollers, and everyone in between. If you’re a people-watcher this is one game that you will like to observe. There is the high-roller, playing with a large amount of money and making loud proclamations when he bets across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty across," you’ll hear her say. He’s the bettor to watch at this game and they know it. The whale will either win big or lose big and there is no in between.

There is the low-roller, most likely trying to acquaint themselves with the high-roller. He will tell the other bettors of books he’s read on dice setting and bum around the most accomplished player at the table, all set to talk and "pick each others minds".

There is the student of Frank Scoblete latest craps class. While Frank is the very best there is, his disciple needs to do his homework. This guy will require 5 minutes to set his dice, so practice patience.

My preferred players at the table are the true gentlemen from the old times. These senior gentlemen are generally composed, almost always kind and will almost always give hints from the "good ole days."

When you take the plunge and choose to join the game, make sure you utilize correct etiquette. Find a spot on the rail and lay your cash down in front of you in the "come" area. Refrain from doing this when the dice are moving or you’ll quickly be referred to as the very last character I wanted to talk of, the jerk.
