Perhaps it's time to give traditional "dice craps" another chance among voters in California? In nearly every casino there is now some version of "card craps" which mimics the game of "dice craps." In fact the card craps games are so close to traditional dice craps that there is no difference in the bets, the payoffs, the odds, or the potential revenue for the state or the casinos. Except... that if traditional dice craps is allowed there might be more revenue for the state and for the casinos and for casino jobs.
Not allowing "dice craps" in California casinos is one consumer protection that is decades out of date.
Let's put it to a vote again but this time, the sponsors should not make the mistake of linking this legislation to expanding casino gambling in California which is what happened last time it was up for a vote.
Make it a pure "dice craps" issue on the ballot. Oh, and you can include allowing real roulette on the same ballot initiative. "Card roulette" is the same game whether or not a dealer throws a ball.
