I hate to say this but I have seen several dice controllers do this and it is so awkward. One players who was told to move his chips asked "why"? The dice controller shouted across the table that this was "my landing zone".

Are some of these people really stupid?

Some players – including GTC and ex-GTC players – cannot get this through their heads. I have stopped shooting with those who behave this way.

Normal craps players? Many are so dim that they can’t see themselves!!!!!

Just bounce the dice off the offender’s chest a few times. 😆

Works for Timmer! 😉

We should never ask someone to move their chips if you think they are in your so called landing zone. A true dice controller will practice becoming a "target Shooter", hitting a specific spot on the table, This is done by practicing and there is no substitution for practice. A good shooter should be able to drop his dice within a 6" circle.

I agree with Stickman when he said he will walk away from a table where someone asks another player to move his chips.

A few years ago I was at the table and one of our GTC advanced students was getting into a long roll. The chips at the end of the table were spaced out and he was using the space in between as a target zone. Things were great. Along comes another GTC student from the other end and asked him to move his chips. The change in the target zone got into the shooters head and the roll soon ended. Fly under the radar at all times.

The road to a seven out is paved with good intentions.

Yesterday, there were two people at the end of the table, with their chips perhaps 3-4 inches apart. I targeted between them, had a nice 26 roll with 90% sixes and eights, and never hit their chips. If one practices correctly, one can do it.

How? DON’T!
What part of no don’t people understand?

Now, there were a couple times when I was on a nice, tasty roll, a few players at the other end made it a point to have people move down and out of the way of the landing area. They were very observant fellows. Most aren’t, so adjust or move on.

I’d like to chime in on that and say that I have also witnessed random rollers moving their chips without anyone asking them to, and even commenting that they don’t want the shooter to 7-out because of chips in the way. It’s a real hoot when that happens!! 🙂

If you can not move your landing zone you have so little control over the dice that does it really matter, i mean if his chips are in your way and you are good enuuf to hit that spot everytime you are good enuff to move the landing zone.

so move the zone and be the star you are.

Kinda like a major league pitcher that can only throw it down the middle,opps that pitcher never makes the majors.

So true brothelman.

On my last trip, After making a point, a guy bought in and placed his chips right in my landing area. Since I was on the comeout roll, I aimed and nailed the landing right on top of his chips. Dead Square! My teammate looked at me in frustration about the chips. I whispered, "I did that on purpose". He commented back, "I bet you can do that again". We’ll, since my roll did establish a point, fun time was over and I’d had to wait. Luckly, I made that point in the next few rolls. (yes, I did adjust my landing area) After the payouts, I turned to my teammate smiled. The dice came and I set aim. DARN, missed, soooo close. But it was an 11, so I’ll get another go. I refocused and nailed the edge of his top chip. It flipped up slightly in the air and rolled away a few inches from the other. (So he had to reach down to reset them) I’m about ready to bust laughing but I have to remain calm. I looked back to my teammate and just smiled with a hugh cheesy grin.

I have to agree with Agame, the same thing has happened to me. Also at the casino I usually go to, I have seen the dealers move a players chips that are in the landing zone. When asked the player was told " the shooter likes to shoot (or land) the dice in that spot". The dealer soon received a nice tip.

Congratulations, this ever so slightly eclipses the 6’s roll that Frank often quotes concerning Stickman’s 22 6’s in 29 rolls for a 75.86% mark.

Your 26 roll with 90% 6’s and 8’s would have 23.4 6’s and 8’s.

I think my percentage must be off. I doubt that I eclipsed Jerry. I do know that all the money was on the 6’s and 8’s for all of us.
