Craps Players Are The Worst

I agree, the majority of craps players are the absolute worst. I have experience so many interesting scenarios over the years that I feel it would be fun to talk about some of them . In this thread I will not talk about how to win , which I do, but I will talk about some crazy experiences with many idiots and bad energy players on the craps table. Many stories are comical however they are very sad.

This morning I rolled into a casino and walk up to the craps table. There were only two people on the table which is beautiful. I did not cash in in the middle of the role as I waited with proper etiquette until the guy made or missed his point. He was cursing and screaming with every role as he kept switching his bets back and forth and kept missing the numbers he was betting. I could not have scripted it. He literally played the roll the worst you could play a role. The point was four . He had the don't pass and placed the five and eight. He proceeded to roll the six and then the nine. Then he moved his 5 to the 9 and 8 to the 6. The next three roles were 8, 8, n 5. He was cursing and saying all kinds of crazy shit and I just had to laugh out loud.

He gave me a dirty look and asked me if I was just going to stand there. I told him that I never jump in the middle of a roll and he should appreciate it. I then told him that I have a feeling he is going to make the point because his energy sucks. The next roll was a 4 .. He made the point and lost his don't pass bet. LMAO

As you guys may know. I never draw first blood, but when someone starts with me I can be fierce and give it back to them 20 fold. He started cursing more and I told him that he's barking up the wrong tree and he is the worst craps player I've ever seen. All of the dealers and Pit Bosses were laughing and the guy stormed off.

what IS a 'role'?

"proper etiquette' imo
is when the dice are in the middle of the table. I have had dealers and boxmen tell me that personally.

never wait to buy in

The worst patrons in a casino. Or anywhere.

I’ve never had problems with strangers in public anywhere other than a craps table.

So some guy was having a bad roll and a poor attitude and you took it upon yourself to start something (by laughing at him) then escalate it further when he reacts to your initial dig? Also glad to know it's the "worst he could have played it" when all the EV's were the same and the rolls were random. Hind Sight shouldn't tell you if you played right or wrong... Sounds like you have some karma comin your way?

p.s. I do agree that in general craps players really are the worse (at being polite to other gamblers).

you really mean the losing craps players

and I have played all over the world at many craps tables and the ones (players) that are winning are really very very nice and fun to be around.

kind like me

imo,
I say almost ALL Blackjack players are the worst casino patrons.
they tell others how to play, when they ruined the table by taking the dealer's bust card
and so on and on and on

When saying that craps players are the worst... This would be a colloquialism.

A 'ROLE' is a speech recognition typo on my phone. Sorry you did not figure that out.

You misread my post... I was minding my business and did not say anything until he made the remark to me about if I was going to just stand there. So no, I did not initiate.

And yes, he could not have played that roll any worse. If you understand craps and have seen the game you would know. Regardless of the randomness and EVof every roll.

Yes I do have karma coming my way. I still have a lifetime of repentance from my 20s!

do not be sorry.

again
proper etiquette
as you state as FACT, is false, in other words, I say you are 100% wrong
(you are stating just your opinion and nothing more BUT you fail to say it is your opinion)

buy-in when the dice are in the center of the table
that simple
the dealer will tell you what is up and if you have to wait

NEVER wait til the point is won or lost

that is such poor unsolicited advice, imo

I see you have lots of that kind of advice in past threads and posts too
well, thank you for sharing

sorry, you do not get it

Even when you are quiet people can start with you.

I was playing DP once, know I should never pick it up but I had a feeling.

Guy who is showing his girl how to play tells me I cannot pick it up.

"Yes I can."
"No, you can't."
"Yes, I can."

Guy asks the dealer, who tells him I can. Guy emasculated himself in front of his girlfriend. I just go back to betting.

Guy on my other side asks what a DP bet is, I politely tell him.

The last time I played I subscribed to the etiquette about waiting for a come out roll to buy in. I was still standing there some ten rolls later at a crowded table and the dealer finally asked me, "Did you want to play?" I said that I was waiting for a come out roll, but the dealer strongly suggested I didn't have to wait.

So, I'm rethinking my policy on that. What do the die hard craps players say?
