So if you're dealing solo in a tub, would you pay/take props at the beginning (before down behind and field) or the end (after paying place bets). I wouldn't be sure because when normally on base it's never in my checkdown list, the stick handles it. But when you're base AND stick ... owwww my head hurts!

I have seen dealers 'removed', from live games. Or fired on a game i've seen dealers get in to fist fights on a game, i've seen dealers that never returned from a break. Strange as it sounds I don't ever think I saw a dealer walk off a live game, if I did I don't remember it.

In FloriDUH we have alot of wacky shiz going on, casino ships that become fishing boats or dive wrecks.

I dealt it at NYNY when the casino opened. I hate that game!

I've dealt the tub at the Royale. Back hurts after dealing that thing. The Casino Royale is the worst job on the strip. It's the only place I've ever seen a dealer walk off a live game and quit.

"Floriduh".

When I typed Casino Royale, I meant the dump located between Harrah's and the Venetian on "The Strip" in Las Vegas. Not some fishing vessel in Floriduh, named Casino Royal.

We actually got rid of our tub last week. Now, every night we have the "real" craps table open. So far it seems we have had more shooters than normal.

I have seen one tub in a party night, a buddy of mine told me he has one I can have, can't wait.

'VegasMan1" there was a Casino Royal casino boat in Florida, I don't suppose we are talking about the same location, are we ?

'appistappis' Are you talking about Florida's casino boats ?

I loved it when I dealt. We had one at NYNY when we first opened. Nobody else liked it. They got rid of it after 6 months. "Craps Shoot" I think it was called. Had chairs too

many years ago, I dealt the dreaded tub on one of the ships....great for getting extremely efficient at dealing craps but a living hell when we would have 12, 13 even 14 players (we would have two rows of place bets on each side

I dealt the tub at Casino Royale back in 1998, as others have said, you easily control the pace of the game. If you get run over, it's your own damn fault. You do need to watch the players like a hawk. So easy to take shots on that game. Make sure they eye has at least two cameras on it. Ellis Island is one of the few places that has a working tub that I know of in Vegas these days. It's hardly ever open.

I broke into craps with a tub. There were two base layouts and you could get four or five players on each side. We almost always had a base dealer and a stick. If it got busy and you were the base dealer then it was like dealing on a big table only dealing both bases. I was real happy to see it go.

have also seen at small places where they run an inside stick and put a wall up just past the prop box. It was comical to see players set the dice and try to "cheat" with the short distance to the wall. It is a VERY short roll to the wall if you were standing next to the normal stick position.

Thats the kind we have. I've never seen the two sided tub (two sets of...

I broke in where there was a tub and yes there is no game protection. However it can be fun and it is experence like no other. You have no help so you have to just slow down and make correct payoffs. Procedure
well the only you can have is just pay one side of the table and then the other and case your layout like a hawk so that you catch (most) of the cheep shots.
THE TUD A GREAT WAY TO WORK YOUR ASS OFF FOR NOTHING LOL.

I was in Biloxi back in Sept. of 96 I think, and saw what they called 'Fast-Action Craps'. Its shape was more like a kidney, with a slight curve. There were cupholders built into the padded rail. It wasn't open when I walked through (slow weeknight), but I would have played had it been.

From your description, I'm glad we don't have it, but there are a couple of whiners on my shift I would like to torture if we did.

Ive dealt on a tub dice table at a small place in Vegas, awhile back. There were 2 sets of place bets, just like a regular sized craps table. Basically 4-5 players per side was the max. There was ZERO game protection while paying place bets on the oppisite end. You had to look to the oppisite end as you paid the place bets. A couple of times it was so busy that a 2nd dealer would have to help out. It was comical, 2 dealers squeezed into 1 spot. It was kinda fun though, if you liked a...

Mini Craps/ Craps Tub

Just curious on how many people have ever dealt mini-craps, or even seen it?

To give a little background, I work at a small casino in the Midwest that just opened up on memorial day of 2006. Craps was slow during the week so someone came up with the idea of putting in the tub to save on dealer hours. Yeah, it saved on dealer hours but since then we've had several craps dealers quit because of it. Now we have to deal on this during the week (the real one is open only on Friday and...
