| - 5 stars strictly for the $5 craps all night long. I've never lost money on a craps table at binions. in fact, i've made pretty good money. IN FACT, i think of the craps tables at binion's as my second job. i don't go in asking myself if i am going to win or lose money, i ask myself, "how much money are you going to win tonight, laura?" because that is the attitude of someone who WINS at craps. and in life. except for that second part, everything i said above is true. sorry, True.
my advice: get your spot at a table and hold on to it for dear life even if some drunken frat boys are yelling things like, "hey red! you better move your ass or i'll move it for you!" don't deal with these schmos...you're not here to flirt, you're here to win so block them out and get into the craps ZONE. either that or have one of the dealers call security. seems like everytime i'm here, there is either a lewd comment made in my general direction or a body part is groped by one of these charmers. don't worry, the dealers are more than happy to kick their drunk asses out so don't hesitate to yell, "hey, Ernie! can you get these yahoos outta here...i'm here to gamble, not to babysit! i know you know!" once the fray boys are gone...it's time to play CRAPS!
more advice: don't go to the craps table (even the $5 all night crap table) with less than $100. this is a game you have to go into big (um $100 is big to me i work in non profit so LAY OFF!!!) to win even bigger. don't worry, it will all pay off. half of this is a mental game...you are an athlete (albeit a drunk, fat one), picture the win. make it real. always bet at least $6 on the 6 & 8 and don't forget to back up your bet on the pass line with at least $5 ($6 if the mark is a 5 or 9!) Listen...craps is the most fun and best odds of any vegas game (i think tied with black jack which requires some skill so fuck that!) and it's not that hard...it just can look intimidating. grab your spot at the table, trade a couple of quips with the awesome dealers, ALWAYS tip (you watch their backs, they'll watch yours, capiche?) and don't go heavy on the free drinks. remember, you're here to win. not to have a good time. oh...and if a table is cold, just leave. walk away. the number one mistake of a new gambler is not leaving a cold table. ooh ooh...when you get to a table, ask the dealers, "is this table hot, boys?" THEY LOVE THAT! um, this helps if you are a young woman and flashing a bit of clevage. actually, maybe it's the clevage they like. i would not recommend doing this if you are a dude. this is vegas, they will not hesitate to take you out back and kill you. actually, i don't know if that's true but i like to think that it is.
i have made over $1,000 playing craps at binions. i don't want to be the only one. i am sharing this information with you so that you may go forward and win. and to you i say: big money, no whammy! mama needs a new pair of shoes! winner winner (faux) chicken dinner!
p.s. feel free to email me for an extended list of ways to win big at craps. i have many tips. most of them legal.
