\nExperienced this last week on a Cruise Ship: Shooting with a new dealer working my end of the table. Point established, bets placed across. First toss hits a box number, play stopped so the table supervisor can explain the pay out to the new dealer, I’m standing there waiting for the dice to be returned, there were three payouts of various amounts. It seemed like two minutes later I get the dice and another box number hit, same routine as previously described, there was no apology from the supervisor for the delay. Several minutes later the dice are passed to me and the point hit. Upon receiving the payout I took my bets down including the dealer bets and told them the pace of play was unacceptable. I had been playing with the more experienced dealers over a week and they understood. What were we taught about any interruption of a shooter, "turn your bets off", In this case quietly leaving the table was in order. TheUsualSuspect, Semper Fi carry on<\/p>\n

What a pain somewhere somewhere below the waist. The least the supervisor could have done was to tell you what was going to happen so you could leave before making a bet. <\/p>\n

\tWe do have some feelings for the new inexperienced dealer. He had to learn some time. <\/p>\n

I had a dealer on a ship who was 2 weeks out of dealer school. Nice guy, and I was alone at the table a lot, so I would help with payouts and the others would say \u201cleave one take one\u201d and I\u2019d pick up on those as well. Since I had to deal with him for the entire cruise, I treated it as a game, kept me cool headed and did well.
\n\tIt seems perhaps your situation was worse and another tax, at least at first was definitely warranted. Nice move.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

On a cruise, I have all the time in the world.. I will just order a drink and go into a meditating state until the dice come back, thinking about the perfect shot. It is really not in their interest to not keep the dice rolling.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Expect]anything to happen at the craps table on a cruise.<\/p>\n

\tSome things I recently witnessed;<\/p>\n

\t2 guys started to give lessons to their girlfriends while using their hands pointing to the numbers ON the table with the dice in the air!<\/p>\n

\tMultiple stacks of money plopping down at the opposite end of the table WHILE I swinging my arm back.<\/p>\n

\tArms, fingers, drinks, hanging over the rail.<\/p>\n

\tWaiters tapping me on the shoulder to sign for a drink.<\/p>\n

\tOpposite end dealer knocking a tall stack of chips over as the dice were settling.<\/p>\n

\tLATE BETTERS all the time. moving like the Flash on the opposite end.<\/p>\n

\tVery little correction to bad players unless I told them to say something.<\/p>\n

\tTipping helps.<\/p>\n

\tI am getting used to the distractions, had some big wins.<\/p>\n
