As a fellow "old white guy", and someone who has had a few reasonably successful small business's over the years, I absolutely love your idea of a gambling escort service.
There are 4 parts to a successful business:
1) a good idea (which you have IMO)
2) a good marketing strategy and/or good personality
3) a solid work ethic
4) significant capital to operate without the pressure of paying back short term loans before the business has had a chance to mature.
I hope you do it, and have great success

Yeah I know how these hot rolls go, the dealers start SLOWING the game down and there are a bazillion players etc.
150 rolls should take 90 minutes max, of course they try to kill the momentum by slowing the game down.
Congrats to her!
wall street I know dealers, stickmen, boxmen could slow the game down very easily. However after 20-30 rolls there is probably so much $$$ in play it takes longer to payoff each roll. A holiday weekend no less

See I dont buy that for a second and here is why (I am sure rickster can give insight)-
These guys do the same thing over and over and over and over. If they are worth half their wages, they can clear a wager with their eyes closed. The 6 and 8 are in denominations of 6, not tough to do the math, the others are either 5 or 7, not tough either.
The odds/return are set and never change..a H8 pays the same, the hard 8 HOP bet pays the same every roll.
Add that there are an extra set of eyes watching and at an busy table it is more like 3-5 extra sets..
If I called craps for 6 months to a year, I could have every spot worked out before the dice settled, it isnt that difficult.
Ive seen busy tables and they can handle it for the most part. Ive also seen GOOD stickmen and dealers whip through a busy session and not drag their asses like some do.

Wall its usually not the dealers that slow it down its the players IMO Although I'm sure once she got near the record they probably slowed it down just for the media coverage, great advertising for the Borgota

I work everyday, 11-12 hours a day with ex-craps dealer. I told him yesterday about this roll.
He told me stories about dealers and boxmen doing everything they could to disrupt the action (not slowing it down though) and jinxing long rolls. Things like throwing salt under the table, throwing pennies under the table, saying certain things, etc, etc.
Something that I've never understood...why the fuck they take it personally. The only one who should really care is the floor and pit personnel, worried about their bank on their shift. Even my buddy says he took it personally too, trying to beat the players every chance he could and enjoyed seeing them loose. Makes no sense.
rickster probably could comment on this. Oh, and rickster, shoot me a PM (private message), perhaps we could have a beer sometime. Also, I like your idea, something I've thought about as well.

Heard grandma say she will take her family and grandkids to
Disney World.
I'm GUESSING that she did not probably press things big up she stood to make about $10 K playing conservatively but after a few other made a few bets for her (which I am sure they did) .

I kind of heard about this roll a while back, but didn't believe it and never checked the story out.
This last weekend I was in LV for my annual Golden Arm Crap tourney at the CAL. The CAL has been running this tourney since Stanley Fujitake held the dice for 3 hr 6 min back in 89 during the Memorial day weekend. The story on that roll was he never 7'd out. He quit because he was too exhausted to go on. The table reportedly lost a million. The maximum bet at the Cal was 3K.
In 1990 I was at the CAL on Memorial Day weekend and on the same table that Stanley rolled on, I rolled the dice for 1 hr 45 min. How do I know? Stanley told me so after. He was taking side bets that I would not break his record
This year they had a 1 hr 30 min roll that I missed out on Sunday because I was on the strip watching a show.
I did cash 2nd place in the tournament for 5k by placing a quarter chip on two aces on the last roll, missed 1st by $30 in chips. First place of 10k was won by a outsider who drew into the tourney with a ticket.
This is a must event for crap players, most of the Golden Arm members (players with 1 hr or more rolls at the Cal) are from Hawaii and are very savy crap players. There are usually many 1 hr rolls during the tournament weekend at either Main St Station or the Cal, the trick is to be on the right table when it happens. If there any crap players out there, mark the last weekend in April and head on down to the Cal for some great action.
Demauro's 4 hour roll is even more amazing, since it reportedly was only her second time ever throwing the dice.
Cheers

The employees are a reflection of the management.
This is why the Cal and Main St Station are my favorite crap destinations. The dealers and floor men are pretty lenient and rarely try to intimidate you or jinx your roll. I have several techniques when throwing dice depending on position and state of mind. My favorite is a high lob. This is not allowed anywhere except at the CAL or MS Station. Most of the time they allow me to throw the dice 2 feet above eye level. Oh by the way the Borgata, is also owned by Boyd Gaming. This is not a coincidence.
Another dice story....
I was at the Horseshoe and on a nice 40 min roll. Starting out with placing 26 across on the numbers I had parlayed it up to around $2000 on the numbers. During the roll, the pitt boss twice told me to bring the throw down and twice to hit the end of the table. I kind of laughed and assured him I would. Finally he came over to me and as I was picking up the dice he put his hand on top of mine, stopping me from picking up the dice and said this was the last time he was telling me to throw it lower. I told him OK take me down I quit. His mouth dropped as he stammered you can't quit, and your line bet ($25) stays. I told him fine, keep it and you shoot the dice. I did not change color, did not tip, stuffed all my pockets with chips, turned my back on the table and walked away, while the whole table just watched me in suspended total disbelief.8 months later I found him working at the the Cal and he was totally nice to me.

I would agree that it would take a while on that kind of roll. Some bets had to be pressed up high and all seven positions on both sides of the table should have been loaded. That plus all middle action including hop bets and hard ways loaded up on every roll. Stacks of chips everywhere on the table plus a 2nd time woman roller is knocking over chips on table wagers on her rolls. Remember, when the point is made, the line is paid, the hop bet is paid and the respective place bet is paid and people are screaming press etc. and reloading the middle. Chips have to be carefully placed in the middle if ten or more people are in action with large stacks plus dealer action. It would be a while for sure!

I was a craps dealer had a shooter roll for 90 minutes. Shooter won 84,000 every player at table won at least 10,000. Dealers work on tips we hope you win. We got tipped about 10,000 during and after that roll as players placed bets and cashed in.

It must have been a high limit game. and the shooter must have started the roll with at least a couple Gs. Yes, most dealers are pulling for you, if they have any brains.
And yes it does take a lot of time to pay 14 players off on basicly every roll of the dice, as they will be playing all the propositions. And then you always will get some squabbling between players on who bet what.

Although I'm sure once she got near the record they probably slowed it down just for the media coverage, great advertising for the Borgota
SOMEBODY BETTER TEACH THOSE PEOPLE THE WORD PRESS IT. IF THEY ONLY LOST 180K THERE MOST OF BEEN ALOT PEOPLE SAYING SAME BET
