If you are on the hunt for excitement, noise and more enjoyment than you can bear, then craps is simply the game to play.

Craps is a quick-paced gambling game with whales, budget gamblers, and everyone in between. If you are a people-watcher this is one game that you will absolutely enjoy observing. There’s the high roller, playing with a huge amount of money and making boisterous proclamations when he wagers across the board, "$520 across," you will hear the whale say. He’s the gambler to observe at this game and they know it. The whale will either win big-time or lose big-time and there’s no in between.

There is the budget gambler, possibly attempting to acquaint himself with the whales. He will tell the other players of books he’s read on dice setting and converge on the most accomplished player at the table, ready to talk and "share ideas and thoughts".

There is the disciple of Frank Scoblete most recent craps class. While Frank is the very best there is, his devotee will have to do his homework. This player will take five minutes to arrange his dice, so practice patience.

My favorite players at the craps table are the real chaps from the old times. These elderly guys are normally patient, mostly congenial and will almost always give pointers from the "good old days."

When you take the plunge and decide to participate in the game, make certain you use proper etiquette. Find a place on the rail and put your cash on the table in front of you in the "come" area. Refrain from doing this when the dice are in motion or you’ll be known as the final character I wished to talk of, the jerk.
