Editorial Review: Product Description: Discover for yourself why dice control, table charting, point counting and other useless carnival barking schemes should be relegated to the circular file. Give yourself a reasonable chance of winning at the table. Richard Orlyn, the fresh new voice in the game, exposes the myths and debunks the superstitions propounded by the rank-and-file authors in this genre. No nonsense, no fictional anecdotes, just the simple but profound lessons of two-dice probability theory presented for the novice and seasoned player alike. This quick read includes distinctive betting and money management skills along with the author's trademarked TABLE TIME PLUS strategy for prevailing at the table. Unique in its approach; uncompromising in its integrity; complete with illustrative material and glossary. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not for everyoneI've tried craps a few times - without much success. I like to gamble but I don't like to lose a lot of money. So this book sounded like it might allow me the enjoyment of gambling without going through what I've allowed myself too quickly. It worked fairly well. I had two sessions at a table. The first one I pretty much broke even. The second one put me ahead by just a few dollars. Sound like a waste of time? Not at all. Neither session had a long favorable run. I saw many players lose quickly and leave while I continued to play. Some may find this boring but I came away with my bank. And next time, maybe I'll hit that lucky streak and walk away a winner. I also became familiar with the game. The author cautions that this strategy isn't for everyone. But it suits me - I like to at least have a fighting chance. Rating: - Now I know............I never could fully understand how to play "craps" and always avoided the crap table but after reading "No-nonsense" I can now say I understand it much better and can't wait to try it. I recommend it to the beginner and the experienced player alike. One warning: don't skip any chapters. Rating: - Easy to understandAs someone who had no idea how to play Craps, I now feel confident in myself to play the game. This is an excellent book for a beginner and reading it will allow you enjoy the game more! Rating: - FantasticThis book was just that, No-Nonsense. The author presented the game of craps in a way that a beginner can easily learn. He then gave his own strategy of playing craps that is also easy to learn along with other tips about the game and gambling in general. The author does not set out to claim he will make you rich at gambling. He, instead, presented a way to have fun a craps while also having the chance to come out a winner during some sessions of play. The book is relatively short, but the information is superb for anyone that is new to the game, or even for the hardened player who may be looking at another way to approach the game. Rating: - Truly No nonsenseGreat book on craps. Doesn't try to push some system on you. Just tells you what there is to know about craps and how to get started. He gives you one "system" but is really just a 'way to play the game' not a gimmick that is supposed to make you into a long term winner. Recommended! Browse for similar items by category:
