I was very appreciative of everyone\u2019s welcome, and how happy they were to see me return. The students were amazingly ready to absorb everything, and the progress from Saturday to Sunday was unbelievable.<\/p>\n<p>\tWednesday morning the dealer at the tables was interesting. One base dealer told me, \u201cYou can\u2019t eat on the table.\u201d (I am a diabetic, and was eating some crackers.) Of course, he didn\u2019t say we couldn\u2019t drink \u201con\u201d the table. I did say I wasn\u2019t \u201con\u201d the table, but that didn\u2019t make any difference to him. He remained quite a sourpuss.<\/p>\n<p>\tThen Thursday morning there was the crazy bettor betting blacks on the hardways, and crazy mad when he lost, buying back in 3-4 times. He moved tables 3 times that we were there, looking for wins, which never materialized.<\/p>\n<p>\tThursday afternoon I rolled the dice, and they landed one on top of the other. My point was 5, and the top die was a 2. The dealers didn\u2019t know what to do, and called the supervisor over, who smashed the dice. We asked what is the casino procedure, and he answered either to separate the dice and call the number, or smash them and it\u2019s a no call. He elected to have a no call. We never knew what the bottom number was. (Was it a 3? We\u2019ll never know.)<\/p>\n<p>\tAll through the day, there were two young drunks playing next to me, who decided I was their \u201cGrandma,\u201d and kept calling me that. They were poker players, and didn\u2019t know all the ins and outs of craps, so I kept reminding them of the good bets versus the bad ones they were making. They started making money, and kept thanking me for being their \u201cGrandma,\u201d and kept reappearing every time we were on the table.<\/p>\n<p>\tWe didn\u2019t get many chances to shoot because there were so many GTC\u2019ers, but Sandtrap did manage a 35 and a 22 roll on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>\tGoddess<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Finisher on July 28, 2015, 4:17 am<\/p>\n<div>Was this before the class or after?
