Craps

A Day Late but Not A Dollar Short

Spread the love


Lois had a wonderful 31 roll hitting the small, tall and all. This only after getting a hard time for not hitting the wall at a casino down the street.

We had enough points for a nice breakfast at one of the local casinos. Afterwards we went to their craps table. A setter was shooting so I went off to buy chips as he had already hit 2 points. I got back just in time to place the 6 and 8 before the 7 out.

Our turn is next. I had a roll under 5 but not a penny was lost. Lois’s first roll was short and I lost a little. Next I went to the dark side while the cubes worked their way around to me. Made a little money. I pass and Lois gets the dice. She checked up short one time because their felt is wool and when the dice hit the corners stuck. We apoogize to the
box. He tells stick man if it happens again he will have to pass the dice. I took my bets down and picked up the odds on Lois bet. After several box numbers one die goes straight into the wall and the other veers off into the side wall. I hear the box man tell stick to pass the dice at which point I tell Lois to pick up her line bet. The box man starts yelling "You can’t pick that up". to wit I reply "You broke the contract. You said pass the dice". All red faced he says no, no, I didn’t. So I apologized put her line bet back and nothing else. We had been betting for the dealers but that didn’t matter. Several more box numbers and Lois hit her point. She says pass the dice, color us up and off we went to casino #2.

Lois had 7 fives. 4 sixes, and 3 eights, two poins made and 1 come out 7 as a part of the 31 numbers.

Our apology to Dragon Boat Racer and company for not being able to contribute like this to your profits on your recent trip. Hopefully next time we will do better. Thank you very much for the lovely dinner.

I loved that Lois made her point and then said she wanted to pass the dice.

After one miss of the back wall they tell her that one more and they will pass the dice? Those folks are nuts. That’s no way to win over customers. Lois made the right choice to take their money and run!

When this happens to ee and it is not often, I usually take down all bets possible and leave the base pass line bet and say this is for the dealers and leave, passing the dice. This is especially good if the dealers have been good. I find that the dealers and stick usually don’t care (especially if I have been betting for the dealer), it is usually the pit critters causing the problem.
