How To Shoot Dice
| |
By Richard Manning, Jr.
There are few places that exist in this world where total strangers can form an
instant bond, a steadfast allegiance strong enough to seemingly make time and
space dissipate and make them feel as if they practically shared a bassinet as
newborns. Usually, this unique type of situation tends to form in unpleasant
realms, such as a wartime foxhole or a stuck elevator. Thankfully, there is a
better place where this type of camaraderie exists, and it helps to create an
overall mood that lands somewhere between giddiness and euphoria. There is the
craps table.

It is that very atmosphere that makes craps the king of all casino gaming
tables. When you saunter up to an empty spot on a craps table and place your
chip on the pass line, you immediately become part of a team, surrounding
yourself with people who share your same goals and wishes for instant monetary
gratification. Place a pair of dice on your hand, and you instantly become lord
over all that surround the felt. You live the dream of a megalomaniac for as
long as you hold the cubes, and if they happen to catch fire in your palm, a
temporary feeling of celebrity is yours; an exhilarated surge that may even
supercede the joy of winning your bets. Within seconds, you are slapping glad
hands with the obnoxious guy to your left who keeps spilling his screwdriver
down his chin with every attempted swig. The gorgeous, shapely woman in the
suggestive halter top at the end of the table-the one that you would otherwise
have no chance with-is calling you studmuffin. The elderly woman to your right
is telling you about her beloved grandson like you were at his last birthday
party. It is a thrill that just slightly tones down when you crap out, only to
pick up the second it is your time to shoot again as if it never lessened.
Simply no other table can compete with that kind of vibe.
The rules and betting structure of craps may be confusing or intimidating to
some, but there is a simplified objective at the game’s heart, one that does
not require a croupier’s help. That objective is, if you are happy, then every
body else is happy. Well, except for that one guy in the corner of the table
that keeps playing the “don’t pass” line, but that’s his own fault.
