Nothing too exciting but it was the only interesting craps play during my August trip. It was Monday morning 2:30am at the Orleans. About 10 guys at the table.
Lots of red chips with very few green. A younger guy with full shades walks up next to me and throws in a pile of 100s. Buys in for 2k, all black with 4 green. The box says "hey, Rob long time no see." Obviously a local. He mumbled something back. Picks up his chips in a very slow and deliberate manner. Drink girl comes by greets mr. 100s and he orders a hennesy boilermaker and tosses a green her way. 2 minutes later in the middle of a roll he sets a bunch of black on the table and says lay the outside numbers for $800. Next roll, seven out. Another five minutes go by and he makes the same bet. Next roll, seven out. The whole time he is standing back about a foot from the table nursing his boilermaker. Never touches the rail. The guy was wasted. Another five minutes go by and I am rolling. He lays outside again for $800. I throw a couple of more times without hitting outside and then seven out. A couple of minutes go by and he puts down $800 and tells the guy in a low gravely voice to lay outside. This time three outside number get picked off before the seven out. Mr. 100s has had enuf. He colors up with a $700 profit and mumbles he'll be back to the dealers. He doesn't toss them a toke. Dealers not happy.
Way to hit and run.
