My wife and I are in Niagara Falls, Playing craps this morning since 2am last night. All was good, we are getting the feel for the tables here. While getting ready for breakfast this morning, missed out on a hot shooter rolling the bones for more than 40 minutes and making the two ladies at my table 2k or more in winnings.
Man I can't believe it, all night waiting for that hot shooter to take it over the top and it had to happen just as we were walking away from the table during our 45 minute breakfast. Oh well, life goes on.
So time is 5:47pm and we got lots of sleep. ready to hit the tables here in Niagara.

Why did you choose to roll randomly instead of setting the dice correctly?

I shot randomly yesterday and hit the all small and tall bet. No one at the table thought a random shooter could do it. So only me and one heavy hitter made bets on the all tall and small. If felt so good none of them made any money.

Technically, everyone is a random roller.

It's 4:24 am just got back home from Niagara Falls. My experience there was over all very profitable with many opportunities to press my bets to a higher level than normal.
The fallsview tables have a different feel at the table, not much of that "clickity clack clack" type rolling I was expecting.
Dealers are also very professional and friendly there.
No I didn't reach an average goal for for rolling nines, but I did cash out $1000 + $500 chip to pocket for the 23hrs stay.
Ended off the night dropping $100 each in a slot machine and lost it. Still $1300 is a good day lasting over 18 hours of table play. The comps are also very good there.
They gave us $30 breakfast for two, $50 dinner buffet for two, along with a $30 comp for the Deli ($100 comps in just the two days is very nice)
Up here in Brantford we are lucky to get $20.00 for more than 6 hours of play with 100.00 average bet.
I'm not sure if who ever was supposed to meet us but they never showed up.

So true sometimes. That 40 minute roll would have made our day.Quote: IbeatyouracesI hope you realize that if you were there, different outcomes would've happened.
One of the ladies at the table managed to tell me what roll he was using.
it was 5,4 at the top and 4,5 facing.

Wow, that's surprising she rolled so well with (IMO) an inferior set.
What're your thoughts on the 6,3 offset w/ wedge split set? IME it's more advanced than it's sister set: the duo-inline crossover. As we all know, it's also a tougher set to master (subjectively, that is)...but once mastered, the benefits are tremendous.

it wasn't her that rolled the 40 minute roll. it was a guy next to her that also showed her the set.
The wedge offset thing i've never tried but there is a regular here in Brantford that does something similar with the 3-v that works for him, but No personal experience on my part. I'v never tried.

I didn't roll randomly. I used my dice set as always.
No firebets were made
Most points I made were 3 points but cashed in on many repeating 5's/8's/hard8's and quite a few repeating craps numbers.
I will be honest and say it's a tough place to make a good substantial profit, due to the high amount of tourists there (Random rollers) There were quite a few good ones but still prefer Brantford tables for making money more consistently.

I don't know how anybody can make money these days with all the random shooters and poorly rested and hydrated players. Plus, I'm sure the same casinos that take cards out of their shoe games and break the law by not letting players play two hands in blackjack, angle the diamonds on the back wall off kilter and alter the angle of the table slightly with a hidden button.
