Play smart...learn how to play casino craps the right way!
Take an Open Spot
by William J. Enslen, Jr.
Be smart, play smart, and learn how to play craps the right way.

You see a table with several open positions.  Which spot should
you take?  That's a matter of personal preference.  Is there a
gorgeous man or woman playing alone at one end of the table?  
Which players are smoking?  Which look bored?  Which appear
drunk or obnoxious?  Pick a spot where you'll feel the most
comfortable.

I like playing on the end, immediately next to the dealer.  On the
end, I don't have to worry about players on both sides of me.  I
don't like playing next to the stickman because I always seem to
be in the way of him reaching for the dice or maneuvering the
stick.  One time, the guy accidentally bopped me on my head
with his stick.  Of course, he was very apologetic, but that didn't
make my head feel any better.

After playing for a while, you'll get a feel for your favorite
position.  You don't have a choice when it's crowded.  If you get
a lousy spot (e.g., an obnoxious guy is next to you), simply
move to another open spot.  If the table is full, wait until
someone leaves and take their position.  Be aware of a player
"coloring up," which is a sign that she's leaving, and tell the
dealer that you want to move into her position.  The dealer will
then hold that spot and not allow a new player to quickly step in.
 The dealer will politely ask the new player to move to the spot
that you vacate.  Obviously, when you change positions, don't
forget to take your chips.

People next to you can affect your mood and entire playing
experience.  They can make it fun or miserable.  You might get
stuck next to a chain-smoking fat guy with wicked body odor, or
it might be a group of heavily drinking babes spilling out of their
halter tops.  So, choose your spot wisely.

Now you know!  Remember, be smart, play smart, and learn
how to play craps the right way.
