@anniem , I have not been to Vegas for a few years. Binion's was the place for cowboys and cowgirls. It is located on Fremont Street. I still play craps in Atlantic City NJ. The young players do not understand how to play the psych of this game, let alone the odds. Females are no longer considered bad luck at the tables. A good craps player studies the table before cashing in for chips. I look for a shooter who is wearing diamond rings. Actually I am look for a Tony Soprano that is throwing the dice. Will not play with someone who is using their shoe money.
I was alive and well when the casinos arrived in Atlantic City, but never visited them. We'd go further south to the beach. As a kid my parents had a friend who had a house in Bay Head, I have such lovely memories of that place.
You must do well at the craps tables, you sound as if you know your stuff.
Tony Soprano, that brings up a perfect image of what you are talking about. Did you watch it? When I was around 15 we had a nutty teacher for Italian in HS. He wanted to have lunch with a lady in Little Italy in NY so he created a "field trip" and took the whole class. When the bus arrived he opened the door and said "Be back at 4. Have an Italian lunch" and let us all go completely unsupervised. I wandered around the whole day and I recall seeing some Tony Sopranos hanging around some doorways. None of us had enough money to buy a restaurant lunch, but we had a good time site seeing.
