\nHey, this stuff really works!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\tI\u2019m very pleased to share that I had my first unofficial 30+ roll a week ago at a nice casino in Connecticut. I played 2, then 3 numbers starting with 2X odds. Even though in the beginning I was rolling every number but mine, I started hitting my numbers and went to maximum odds. I even bumped up my pass line bet and kept going. Thanks to all the instructors and especially to Dom and Frank for their dedication in organizing GTC to help us beat the casino. Looking at my notes from this year\u2019s A.C. class in March (thanks, Timmer), I worked at lightening my grip, shortening my backswing, getting up and out over the table, and especially getting a good trajectory on the dice so that they hit the wall and make that SMACK sound. I recall Dom even personally showing me in A.C. how to start gripping the dice perfectly aligned. Back to my craps session; it was great fun and pretty cool walking away from the table not only with some extra $ in my pocket, but also with the confidence that I can do it again! Thanks again to all.<\/p>\n

\tBy the way, don\u2019t beat me up too bad but I still haven\u2019t got that practice rig \u2013 the only thing I have to say is that sometimes \u201clife gets in the way\u201d. I\u2019m sure it\u2019s only a matter of time before I purchase one and make the effort to put in the necessary practice time to improve.
\n\tI must add a few observations from my session that I found interesting.<\/p>\n

\t1.\tI\u2018m a lefty and was shooting from SR1 when during my roll another player came up to SR2 to play. A player on his right cautioned him, \u201cHEY he\u2019s throwing the dice. Give him all the room he needs!\u201d
\n\t2.\tAnother one said \u201cyou can be our designated shooter!\u201d
\n\t3.\tIn the middle of the roll, I got distracted, paused, and asked the stick man to take the dice back. After a few moments, I was ready again.
\n\t4.\tDuring my roll, I gazed over at a player who kept betting the Don\u2019t Pass. I didn\u2019t let it bother me, but after the roll I had to ask him, \u201cWhy?\u201d All he said was that he\u2019s stubborn. Pretty dumb I say.<\/p>\n

\tI\u2019ll be on vacation in Vegas in October. I hope to see you there.<\/p>\n

Stealthman,<\/p>\n

\tTimmer was my instructor in A.C. in March. After the class he sent me a summary of all the instructor’s comments on my throw. Very helpful.<\/p>\n
