Gentlemen start your engines!

My new practice rig arrived last week along with the new stick of dice. I set it up and took ~100 practice rolls to get used to the rubber wall and not the cardboard box. It took me four rolls to get both dice to stay on the rig. The first two rolls one of the dice bounced over the back wall and the third roll a die shot off the front end like a cannon ball!

Once I started treating the dice like my girlfriend and not my wife, it went a lot smoother.

My first recorded session was better than expected. 41 hands with only 19 completing the five count. I did have three 20+ hands.
My SRR was 6.27 with an average hand of 8.99. I must be doing something right.

I was amazed at the difference the new dice made. The edges was so sharp I thought of shaving with one of the dice to see what would happen.
The way it grabbed the felt was something else, a die would bounce off the back wall and make a 90 degree turn.

I plan on talking a class but my vacation time for 2014 is already taken, so I’m shooting for 2015.

The next item in the budget is buying the smart craps software.

A throwing station is in the works, but right now I simulate the rail by throwing over an eleven inch stack of books.

In the mean time it’s watch the DVD, re-read the book and watch the videos on youtube and practice, practice, practice.

Rich in Mich
