Let me first off state that I in no way believe myself to be a skilled craps shooter. I play it for entertainment value and for cover.
With that said, I stopped in at the Showboat this afternoon, just passing through, and bought in for $100 at the $10 table in the House of Blues Casino. For the most part there were about 7 or 8 players. The first roll I had I think I hit 3 points and a bunch of numbers in between before I finally sevened out. It was good enough to get me up over $400. The dice come back around to me and I sevened out right away the second time, and my chips were almost gone to the point were I was getting ready to dig in for another $100. I had all my chips on the table and one shooter hit a couple numbers and points to get me right back in the game and almost back up to my high point. The third time I had another nice roll with several numbers mixed in with 3 or 4 points again.
I figured I'd hang around long enough to shoot one more time before calling it a day, and proceeded to loose as 4 shooters in a row could not hit a single point. Right before the dice were to come back to me again, The pit comes in and announces the table is being changed to a $100 minimum. There was no warning. I had to look around and double check that I was still at the Showboat. Last time I checked, the Boat isn't exactly a high roller's haven - They had a $25 blackjack table in the the high limit area last night! Obviously, everyone cleared out and the table was left empty.
