It has been a difficult year getting on a craps table this year but I found on open with the dealers waiting for shooters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This table is always full with regulars. I told my wife and Goddess I was going to walk down to the cage and break a bill for tip money. Wouldn’t you know I see this table open. The time may be important. It was two in the afternoon. <\/span><\/p>\n The locals were still at work. Or recovering from lunch. I don’t know. I have not thrown dice in the past year or practiced at the house because we had a elderly family member move in after a fall and move in with us with all her stuff and medical appointments. You know how it swings. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The craps tables have been sketchy since covid. The last good game I had was in Vegas two years ago at the place Elvis performed.<\/span><\/p>\n It was a hot day on this trip and the humidity in the casino made the dice stick to my fingers. It was a ten dollar table and I started with one hundred buy in. I used COME bets and bought in for another hundred. To deal with the sticky humidity I slid my fingers to the top of the dice. This worked just fine. Players started showing up at the table. I was stick left next to the stick. Two players on the end stick right and one guy stick right. One guy was on my left with two on the left end.<\/span><\/p>\n I felt like I should return to my wife with the tip money but I could not leave. Three of us were shooters and the rest didn’t want the dice and passed them on. I could not believe it. I couldn’t leave in this situation. How often does this come up.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I really enjoyed my game. It always feels good to pull those COME bets down. You can lose your shirt with COME bets but when your hot your hot. I played for an hour and one half and bet only on a couple of the shooters. One guy was always good for shooting 5″s. The other guy tens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n My betting was cautious having just arrived to the casino. But now I know that early afternoon is game time for me. I hope.<\/span><\/p>\n I doubled my money and found a playable table. And I can still throw the dice. I’m pleased. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Primer, Henderson, NV\/ Las Vegas January 2019<\/span><\/p>\n Two consecutive 50 minute rolls Las Vegas Casino on the Strip.
