Its all superstition if you ask me. Some like to shoot standing next to stick others next to base dealer. Its all luck no matter what he/she does with the dice. Those same people are the ones who will blame anyone that says " 7 " when theres a point and they out 7 or blame the dealer if the dice flip onto a seven and they out 7 as well. Its all luck, the only skill maybe betting patterns you use but even then its tough.

Edit : Betting pattern i see a lot of regulars play is 1 pass line bet and 2 come bets all with max odds. At least they are the ones who have stuck around with the same bankroll over the years.
