Yes Alan! I did notice your name. You were described in the article as a "regular Craps Player at Caesars" back then. Do you still frequent Caesars? Fortunately or unfortunately, I live in Hawaii, therefore I can only go to Vegas two or three times a year. Have been playing casino craps since 1983 when I won $1700 on my first experience at Harrahs in Lake Tahoe and have been hooked ever since. The Fire Bet only adds to my crap table adrenaline addiction.
Played and won an "All Bet" at Aria a few weeks ago. Shooter needed to make a 2 for his final number and he nailed it!!! Yahooo!!! I had $10 + $1 on the Small, Tall and All so got paid about $2400. Shooter had a $1 therefore we all (dealer too) celebrated that "pair of Aces". A great thrill but I still prefer the 6 point Fire Bet but I am not complaining.
New Idea:The casinos should create a video from the years of surveillance tapes and create The Worlds Greatest (and/or strangest) Craps Hands video. Those 1 hour+ rolls are mini masterpieces that should be available for those that appreciate it! Perhaps with your Media connections you can start producing it! I would pay for a DVD of it!
Thanks again for this great Blog. Keeps me reminiscing about all the great experiences on the Crap Table.
