Tracking your Wagers on a Crap Table

Dear Mark, When on a fast paced crap game, I tend to lose track of my come bets. Sometimes the dealer is handling my money so fast that I cannot see where he put my money. The layout is confusing enough, but how do I really know for certain that my money is properly put where it belongs, and being paid, especially when the dice are moving so fast? Jerry C.
As intimidating as a crap table layout looks, it is intelligently designed so that the dealer can track all the play on the table, even on a jam-up game when dice and dollars are flying. If you loose sight of your come bet, Jerry, or any bet for that matter, fret not. The dealer has geographically placed your wager in the correct box and in alignment with your playing position on the crap table, so it will not be mixed up with others. The only way your money will get "lost in action" is by making poor bet choices on the game, wagers that could have a house edge as high as 16%.
