Craps is good for me, gets my adrenaline rush going and I play with much less money than I play in the market every single day.

Sometimes, you can have just as much fun watching the drunks loose their money. I was playing craps one time next to a guy that had to hold on to the table to keep from falling. There is an area on the craps table called the field. Any bet on the field wins whenever a 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12 is rolled. This drunk next to me either put a $5 chip on the field bet or left his chip on there, I don't remember. This bet kept winning until there was a stack of $5 chips at least 10 inches high. The next roll of the dice was a looser and the dealer removed the chips. The drunk raised his head, rolled his eyes in my direction and said "I can't believe that you left that on the table". I said, Well, it wasn't my money. Since we were the only two standing at that end of the table, he figured it out, his mouth dropped open and he nearly fell over. (It was much funnier being there)
