Bettors at a Craps Table
February 5th, 2026 by Donald

If you are wanting thrills, noise and more enjoyment than you might be able to endure, then craps is the only game to gamble on.

Craps is a quick-paced game with whales, budget gamblers, and everyone in between. If you’re a people-watcher this is one game that you’ll love to observe. There’s the high roller, playing with a huge amount of cash and making boisterous declarations when he bets across the board, "Five Hundred and Twenty dollars across," you’ll hear the whale say. He’s the bettor to watch at this game and they know it. The whale will either win big-time or lose big-time and there is no in between.

There is the budget gambler, most likely attempting to acquaint themselves with the high-roller. He will inform the other competitors of books she’s read on dice setting and converge on the most accomplished shooter at the table, all set to talk and "share ideas and thoughts".

There’s the student of Frank Scoblete latest craps workshop. Even though Frank is the best there is, his devotee needs to do his homework. This guy will require 5 minutes to setup his dice, so practice understanding.

My favorite individuals at the table are the true chaps from the good old days. These senior gents are usually tolerant, generally generous and most likely will always share advice from the "good old days."

When you take the chance and choose to join the game, be certain you use correct etiquette. Find a place on the rail and put your cash down in front of you in the "come" spot. Never do this when the pair of dice are moving or you will quickly be known as the very last character I wished to talk of, the jerk.
