When I first read the title of this thread , Newbies getting advice from the dealers , I had to laugh
Back in the days when I first started playing craps it was a common occurrence to hear the stick man tell a player , "Play that 12 , it hasn't hit in awhile , it's about due"
or the old , "double up and catch up" after the shooter sevens out
Back in the old days it was very common for them to offer those gems of advice on a regular basis . In some casinos it
was a requirement for the dealers to help the players along in that manner , it was those little helpful hints that helped to increase the bottom line
