Craps

It was a thing of beauty…

Spread the love


All I can say is “what a day”. We are here in Atlantic City for the seminar this weekend. Thursday is setup day. Our routine goes something like this. We wake up and try to find a game so we can play a session. Then we will meet everyone for breakfast, and go to the hotel where the seminar is being held so we can setup our equipment for the seminar.

So before breakfast, Dom and I find an open game and buy in. The first time we each got the dice not much happened. I was struggling with the feel and the dice just did not feel right so I did not do well. Dom gets the dice and uncorks a beautiful 43 roll hand. What a great start to the day. We color up and meet everyone for breakfast.

The setup goes well and then we all go to the White House Subs for lunch. If you have not been there, I highly recommend the place. After lunch our group goes back to the casino hotel and everyone goes to their rooms for a little rest.

Dom sent a text about playing another session, so I met him at the craps pit and we found an open game with only one player, and we buy in. Dom gets the dice first and has a short hand. I followed with a short hand. Then the magic happened. Dom gets the dice again and explodes with an 80 roll hand! It was a thing of beauty. The come betting worked to perfection. I want to thank Skinny for his marvelous explanation and description of how to play 5X odds games. I started with $15 pass and come bets with full odds, and when that wonderful hand ended I had my come bets up to $75 with full odds. It was a session that I will never forget.

Dom posted earlier about me spotting an issue with his setup. Since he made that correction he has been on fire. What a great day indeed!

Thank you Dom, and thank you Golden Touch!

Fantastic!!!

80 roll hand, just amazing. Congrats to Dom.

NFF, I’m ecstatic the come betting worked so well for you. It is a thing of beauty to watch those line bets increase from $15 to $30 and then to $75. What fun.

WOW–congrats on a great start to the weekend. BUT bummer, wish we could have been there if only standing in the back ground watching!!! That would have been exciting to watch. Hope you have many more and of course a great class.

Look forward to seeing everyone at the next class weekend.

What can you say that hasn’t been said about Dom’s fantastic session at the table, the cream of the crop came to the top. It would have been a beauty to just watch such grace and control. We can only dream of moments like this. TheUsualSuspect, Semper Fi carry on

Usual Suspect,

I missed you in AC. This was probably the first time that I have not seen you while we were in AC. I hope you are doing well.

I feel honored to have experience and see the two of them demolish the tables. Since I am big on studying each table, something I studied during the advance class I seem to be on target with my choice of tables that I feel are more playable to the GTC throw. I find myself more often running into the wrecking crew.
