So, where does that put us Craps players? The answer is GREAT news!

California law says that instead of using dice in a gambling game, casinos must use either cards or a combination of cards and dice.

Without going into the math of how many cards to use, let me just say that 264 is the magic number. And for this post, I’m going to concentrate on one Casino that uses 264 cards numbering Ace (1) through six. No other cards are used.

That Casino is in San Diego (Alpine), and it’s called Viejas! http://www.viejas.com/

Now, let me tell you why the news is so good:

The player has an advantage over the house! What?

Yep – the ONLY game that I know of where the house has a Negative Advantage. I don’t know how to make that any plainer… YOU have the advantage over the Casino!!!!

IF…. If you bet as I’ve taught you in my book. I’m serious folks – IF you are a wrong bettor, and you play the strategies in my book “Winning Craps Money” – You actually have an advantage over the California Casinos.

Right bettors don’t  – switchers don’t – only us “Wrong Bettors” have this advantage. And this is revolutionary

Take a look at this table:

What stands out in this table is that laying odds on points of 4, 6, 8, and 10 show the house edge in negative. In other words, the player has an advantage! Of course, you have to make a negative expectation don’t pass bet first. The Viejas generously allows the player to lay up to 10X odds, up to a maximum win of $1,000. If the player laid the maximum odds on points of 4, 6, 8, and 10, then the overall PLAYER edge between the don’t pass and laying odds would be 0.022%. THAT’S AMAZING!

Those figures are based on every “throw” coming from two random cards out of the 264-card shoe. However, the game uses a continuous shuffler. The way these shufflers work is with shelves. Any new cards coming in cannot be put into the top shelf, where new cards are dealt from. So, unless a new shelf is reached, there is a deeper penetration than just two cards. It is fairly obvious that even a slight penetration will work in the favor of the don’t pass bet. The same cards used to get a point on the come out roll may not be available to be drawn again until a new shelf is hit, making it disproportionately likely to throw a seven instead, resulting in a win. READ THAT AGAIN- IT’S DYNAMITE!

The brilliant, new site discountgambling.net analyzes the effect of the shuffler and calculates a player advantage of 1.8% per don’t pass line bet made. ALSO DYNAMITE! He goes on to introduce a card counting strategy to increase the advantage even more.

This all means that (for now) you can study my book, apply ALL the strategies (simple as I’ve made them) and actually have an advantage over the California Casinos… So, it’s definitely worth a trip to California.

I’ll be there soon… maybe we can meet up!
