Craps

Vegas Class Report

Spread the love


I’ll keep this brief but wanted to quickly post a short review of the class completed yesterday (Sept 18). For this class I did a Video Elite on Friday along with Hard Nine. My bride, Lady Luck, did a Tune-Up with Mr. Finesse.

For the weekend, Hard Nine and I were joined by Harold for the Advanced course which was phenomenal.

I have done a Primer, 3 Refreshers (maybe 4, can’t remember) and now an Advanced. Each course has taught me more and more and helped to ingrain "the toss" in my mental and muscle memory. The change in my toss from Friday at the beginning of the Video Elite to Sunday was unbelievable. Not the same shot and I expect a significant change in my casino results.

Every group, Primers, Refreshers, and Advanced were on time and eager to learn and grow. People were there when the doors opened throwing and practicing. Many stayed during breaks and stayed after the day ended. And the instructors…what can I say. They stayed through bathroom breaks, lunch breaks, came early and stayed late to make sure that everyone, and I mean EVERYONE got what they wanted and needed.

I have always been so impressed with the instructors but never more so than this trip.

This was the first time that I really got to work with Billy the Kid and No Field Five and I was totally blown away. Their ability to spot my issues and work with me till they were resolved was nothing short of amazing. They gave us everything they had, taught us everything they know, and left us with the ability to critically analyze and correct our throws and how to play on different surfaces and how to adjust our shots based on the table.

I want to thank Dom, Mr Finesse, Daryl (NFF), Billy, Doc and Rose, Randman, Goldfinger, Vera and everyone involved for another great course.

For the Primers and Refreshers from this course and for all those who haven’t been back in a while, come back and keep coming back. When you are ready, take the Advanced and, for sure, do a video elite. You and your 401g will be better off for it.

Not much to add, but let me find something…..

Was great to meet Jawbones and his lovely bride and spend some time with them. It was also great to meet some of our west coast brethren, which is why I really wanted to do the class in Vegas.

As noted, the Advanced was a totally different experience. We were still able to build on the Video Elite throughout the weekend, but learning some of the finer points of the game both with the shot and many other aspects was extremely helpful. Special thanks to both BTK and NFF for the Video and Advanced work.

It was great shooting with quite a few folks, including a member of WI six shooters who I saw last night killing it, and met and played with today. The camaraderie of Craps is exponentially raised when with our own. War stories upon war stories! lol

A toast to the Sept ’16 Vegas class!

Thanks for the nice comments.
Billy and I enjoyed working with y’all throughout the weekend. Do "the Drill" at every practice and you will see amazing results in the next few months.
