How to Shoot Craps
It's been said that "the best throw at dice is to throw them away." That could or could not be true depending upon how you play the game. It's quite true that there is little if any actual skill in shooting craps. It's a game of pure chance. But there is something to be said for knowing the odds for various bets, and not betting when those odds are ridiculously against you. And that's what this book is about.
It's also about the "sharpies" of the game, and how to recognize "crooked" dice, throws and crap tables. For the student, there's a brief history of dice, showing how craps began and spread. The uninitiated will learn the rules of the game, how to make side bets, the common dice terms, and the difference between a private and a gambling house game.
So, whether you'll be trying your luck in a private game with the fellows or joining a big-time game in a licensed gambling house, this book is for you. It won't, nor will any other book, make you a winner every time. But if you apply the facts presented, your chance of winning more often than not will be as good, and maybe better, than the next crapshooters?.
