A Swindle, of Sorts... pt. 3
In the gambling game of Craps, people stand around a long, low, walled table and throw money and dice all over its surface. The dice are thrown, they land, their sum called out, and the money exchanges hands amid the shouts and preparations for the next throw. This continues as long as the money lasts and the cops don't raid the joint. The game is complex, yet simple. It takes five minutes to learn to play, and a lifetime to forget the experience. The players can be euphoric and ecstatic one minute, destitute and desolate the next. It is a high-risk, high-reward investment. Fortunes have been won and fortunes have been lost, all on the turn of the Galloping Dominos. Craps is a Funny Game.
