So Sunday my wife and I drive up to an Indian casino in Connecticut for a great give away. She wonders off to do her shopping and i find my position at SL1. After 10 minutes, the dice come to me. Since I haven’t played since the AC class, I decide to 5 count myself. Thank god because I threw a point/seven. table is fairly empty, so dice come back to me in about 15 minutes. I am 5 counting everyone so between myself and everyone else, I am down $200. I put my $15 pass line down and establish a point of 5. Back it up with $100 because they are a 5x house and they allow you to push the house on odd amount bets. And bam right back with a perfect 3-2. This continued for maybe 15 minutes or 24 throws and put me into the win column. 15 minutes later, I get the dice again. I don’t bother 5 counting myself this time and I threw 19 numbers before the 7 and again nice profit. But this time I noticed a tingle in my right shoulder. The table is a little more crowded now and it takes about 25 minutes for me to get the dice back. Again I don’t 5 count myself and was throwing pretty nicely. Debbie walks over to me and says we should go get some lunch before we have to go over to the convention center. I told her my shoulder was really starting to hurt so after this roll was a good quitting time. I continued to get to roll 26 when I heard a pop as I released the dice and felt a sharp pain shoot down my arm. Luckily, I hit the hard 6. The next 6 rolls I had to shoot with my left hand as my right arm was in agony. I finally sevened out after 32 numbers, a great profit and a torn rotator cuff as I found out this morning with a MRI. So, my craps days are going to be limited over the next few months as I prepare for surgery, but I at least wen out on a really good note. Good luck to everyone in Tunica next week.

Michael
