Last night the Wisconsin six shooters got together for a practice session at my home.
Set44 and Carlito and I. It was a very good session, i think we all learned some stuff and it is
just a lot of fun when GTC folks get together. We worked on release, arm tension and landing.
After about 2-3 hours it was time to eat and since the one of the local casino’s was only a short
skip past the food stop( 30 miles) we had to head over. Now mind you, we went 30 minutes to eat , which
just happened to be in the direction of the casino. When you are that far already, i mean what
choice do you HAVE???
I am always nervous about such a trip. After a good practice session you dont want to mess it up
with a bad trip, just like playing at class, a poor casino stop can ruin a good day at class.
Anyway the casino has a tub and it is a ncie table with a nice bounce and good crew. We got there
and the place was dead, the craps table was closed. They had sent them home. I talked to the pit
boss and he said well he would try find a dealer. Shawn is a good craps dealer and he was there so
i mentioned that and he agreed.
We started poorly, Set44 was in position, Carlito and myself were not, so after a poor round, i moved
more into postion, Carlito moved to the other side and we were off to the races.
Nothing really long, but a good number of rolls in the mid teens to mid 20"s
We made money on almost every roll. I think the tub is a good practice tool because it makes
you relax and throw a soft shoot.
About 11:15 suggested we head back home… we decided on one more round, Sett44 and I did not do anything
and Carlito made up for what we lost on those rolls..
Enough for one day….. great practice.,… great casino stop.
I thanked the guys for opening the table and out the door Shawn said thanks for stopping, you made my "week"
They allow dealers here to keep their tips and his box was almost full…..
The dealers made money…. the GTC guys made money… and the casino lost….. is this a great life …or what??
