THE DAILY OR SESSION FOLLOW MODE WITH SWITCH-PROTECTOR

This is a neat little grinder that can be used at the craps table for making steady, daily profits.

1. Use an adaquate bankroll and use the MM of “up & up & back to flat bets”.

2. Pick your daily or session side by going to the table and get your first decision and that will be your “primary side” for the day….or each session.

3. All you do then is “follow” your daily//session side and get +3 units for that session……and if a losing streak of three in a row hits you, all you do is switch to that side until it gets you your +3 units…or, it switches you back to your ‘primary’ side with a loss. Remember….hit & run is the real key to beating these games!

Thats all there is to it….and it works! Doesn’t need any more superlatives……IT SIMPLY WORKS!

If you have questions, feel free to email me and I’ll do my best to help. NOTE: I do not sell systems……I just hate seeing people throw their money away, trying to “gamble”. So all I’m doing is sharing what I use almost every day!

Enjoy……

The original challenge involved a 2x odds table, such as might be found on a cruise ship wherein the gambler has no way of seeking a different casino. A more real world approach would focus on 3x4x5x odds which is encountered in about half the casinos in Vegas or a 5x table or perhaps a 10x table.
Also, despite the faltering economy, I think a real world challenge should involve a table at which the minimum bet is ten dollars. Sure one can trek to Vicksburg, MS and play at a One Dollar table with 20x odds or Biloxi, MS and play at a 3.00 table but most players will encounter 10.00 tables, not 5.00 tables.

>I prefer if you ignore the center bets
Agreed. That 16.67% house edge on BigRed would be tough on any gambler and most gamblers would ignore the center bets.
>I have a small fixed budget but
>want to hang around a high-limit table.
Limits are for the casino’s benefit and are designed to prevent a gambler from gambling with the casinos money by following a lucky streak.
>I get a better atmosphere, more drinks,
>and a glimpse of life as a high roller.
Agreed. I might even add that better dealers at the higher limit tables might make fewer mistakes. Ofcourse more of those free drinks might induce player errors as well.

>If you can dig up the answer somewhere on the web, more power to you.
I may have made a mistake by digging up an answer that was already available. That answer was based on computer simulations of an insufficient number of rolls. I just thought it would be easier to analyze an existing article than engage in Monte Carlo simulations.
Ofcourse perhaps the easiest thing to do is to accept that no professional craps players have ever emerged from the real world quagmire of Negative Expectation and that therefore Monte Carlo simulations are unnecessary because the Real World of craps shooters have been conducting them for years.
The shareware program WinCraps would probably suffice and costs only twenty dollars, so perhaps it could be used.
Its clear that an altered challenge might spark additional simulations but might also achieve results that differ little from the article that has already been cited.

Now, there are lots of folks who understand the math of the game who will tell you that dice influencing is a reality. Rather than focus on the guys who are teaching DI (dice influencing) including myself – consider Stanford Wong. Wong is a statistician who is best known for his blackjack play and the many books he has written on card counting, etc. But he’s also a well known dice influencer and has written extensively on the subject. Wong will tell you that DI works.

Rather than take my word (or Wong’s) that dice influencing is a reality I’ll offer this challenge. Get a pair of casino dice and put together some sort of practice rig that will allow you to toss the dice and get the same “random” results you’d get in the casino. That means using new certified perfect dice (about $5 a pair) and real pyramid rail rubber on the back wall of the rig.

Pick a dice set you can find quickly and easily. I suggest using a hardway set with the five pips on top and the 6-1 on the left and right sides of each die. Grip the dice the same way every time – for starters you can go with the thumb in the back, the pinkie and index fingers on the side faces of the dice and the middle and ring fingers on front. We call that a five-finger or lock grip. It’s not the best grip but it’s easy to execute quickly and consistently. Pick a spot on your practice rig layout about six to eight inches from the back wall. Get a piece of chalk and put an “X” on that spot. Now start lobbing the dice to that spot. The idea is to get the dice to that spot with the softest toss possible. Toss the dice the same way over and over and over. Once you get to the point that the dice are flying through the air together and striking the wall softly at approximately the same time you are ready to start tracking. Go to my Crapsfest website at http://www.crapsfest.com, click on “downloads” then click on “roll trackers.” Download the latest copy of BoneTracker. Note that BoneTracker is open source and free, but requires that you have MS Excel or Open Office to operate. Once the BoneTracker program opens set up your dice pre-set arrangement in the front page. The default is for the V-3 set so you’ll need to input 5-5 as the “up” numbers and 4-4 as the front numbers. The rest of the numbers will automatically be inserted. Start the roll tracking macro and start tossing the dice. You’ll need to differentiate between the right die and left die and sometimes it’s difficult to keep track of the dice as they fly through the air. Most DI’s use one red die and one green die to simplify tracking, but you can simply mark the one pip on one die with an “L” and the other with a “R” and track it that way. BoneTracker is set up to allow you to track 720 rolls per book, so toss 720 and review the results. The program will tell you if you have one die off axis, both dice off axis, or are hitting primary or secondary numbers. As you advance in your skills you can use that info to diagnose grip and toss issues to improve your skills. For now, don’t sweat it. Just toss, get in a groove, and track. In the end you’ll want to toss about 10 books of rolls – 7200 tosses – to get a result of any statistical significance. An SRR of 6.0 is “random” and if your results are random they should come very close to this number. If they are significantly different either way – say from 5.5 to 6.5 – then you are exhibiting influence over the dice. You can capitalize on those numbers using the dice set as is – or you can go into the transposition function on the program and look at your results with other dice pre-set arrangements. With an SRR of 5.5 using the hardway set you may find a “mutant” set that will give you an SRR of 9.5 or more. It all depends on the characteristics of your toss.

Okay, the latest version of BoneTracker is 2.22. You can download it at this link:

While you’re over there at the CrapsFest website take a minute to browse the articles. Yeah, you’ll see that I do seminars, sell books, dice, videos, etc. But the articles and downloads mentioned are available for free. You can also visit my other website – http://www.axispowercraps.com and look at some of the primary dice pre-set arrangements and some other details on the game – also available free.

Virtually anything you need to know to learn dice control on your own is available somewhere on-line for free. I encourage you to learn everything you can about it without spending a dime. If, at some time, you decide you want to learn more about DI then buy a book. I recommend picking up something from half.com or used from Amazon. There are several good ones out there. The best IMHO is Mad Professor’s Crapshooting Bible. Check it out.

If you decide you want some individual or small group training on dice control we do offer that. Watch the websites for details on upcoming craps clinics. No, I’m not one of the “golden girls” of craps. You won’t find me making unsubstantiated claims on TV, radio, or in magazines. But I will step up to the table with any student who attends one of the seminars we do and play a live session. That’s where the rubber meets the road.
