Craps Is A Superstitious Game
Are you a superstitious person? You know, the kind of person who
won't open an umbrella inside a house, won't walk under a ladder
and has to spin around three times when stepping over a crack in
the pavement?
Here's a list of some of the more common craps superstitions
compiled by some of the great craps players. Incidentally, they
believe in a lot of this nonsense too!
1. If the stickman changes, in the middle of a roll, a seven
will follow.
2. If a cocktail waitress approaches the table, a seven will
follow.
3. If the dice being thrown hits somebody's money, a seven is
likely.
4. If the dice being thrown hits the glass, a seven will appear.
5. If there's too much chatter among the dealers, frequent
sevens.
6. If the dice are thrown off the table, seven will be the next
number up.
7. If new dice are requested, seven is likely to follow.
8. If someone yells out the number "7", a seven will surely
follow.
All of this may sound like a whole lot of nothing to you but
sometimes you can be involved in an active game where the dice
are passing a little too frequently. If you pay attention, you
will discover that several of the superstitions are, in fact,
occurring.
You'll notice that the stickman changes a little too often, that
instead of one cocktail waitress, the table now has two
waitresses serving drinks and many other strange happenings that
ultimately mean a seven is going to be thrown by the shooter.
Remember, you can always bring your bets down and wait until the
next shooter. You can also turn your bets off, but if you do,
don't turn them back on, because if you do... a seven will
follow!
