You see a craps table with a few available spots. Which spot should you occupy? That’s a matter of individual choice. Is there a gorgeous man or woman playing alone at 1 end of the table? Which individuals are using cigarettes? Which look apathetic? Which appear inebriated or awful? Select a spot where you’ll feel the most at ease.
I prefer playing on the end, immediately beside to the croupier. On the end, I do not need to worry about gamblers on both sides of me. I do not like gambling near to the stickman because I constantly seem to be in the way of him trying to get the dice or moving the stick.
After gambling for a bit, you’ll get a taste for your favored spot. You don’t have a choice when it is packed. If you end up in a lousy location (like, an atrocious person is next to you), just move to a further free spot. If the craps table is filled, hang out until a player leaves and take their spot. Be aware of a gambler "coloring up," which is an indication that she’s leaving, and inform the croupier that you want to move into her seat. The dealer will then reserve that spot and not allow a new player to quickly step in. The croupier will politely ask the new gambler to switch to the location that you leave. Obviously, when you switch positions, don’t leave your your chips.
Players next to you can have an affect on your mood and full competing experience. They can make it fun or miserable. You could get stuck next to a smoking fat player with horrid body odor, or it could be a group of drunk hotties busting out of their halter tops. So, choose your spot wisely.
