Learn to Play Craps -- Tips and Strategies: Want Proof Dice Control is a Scam?

Be smart, play smart, and learn how to play craps the right way!

Is it legitimate or a scam? Let's take a look. I suspect that the notion of chop control is a big-money industry (perhaps, multi-million dollars annually). You name it and they sell it: books, tapes, seminars, full-size practice craps tables, half-size tables (a. p. a. throwing stations), throw out bars, chop, and practice grippers. But is it real or just a more sophisticated joke to swindle you from a hard-earned money? The answer seems so obvious. Sadly, the world will never be without plenty of people so blinded by their burning desire to win big that they can't or won't stop long enough to trust twice before giving over their money.

If you've read my other articles and Ebook, you know my ideas on the world of chop control, chop setting, precision shooting, or whatever else you want to call it. In my opinion, it's a silly world called Fantasyland. I won't regurgitate my other works so let's get to the point of this article. You want proof that chop control is a scam to deal to you off? Consider one easy question and its answer. Take a deep breath of air and try to relax your overwhelming desire to get rich off the casino. Now, ask yourself, "Do you think that the casino allows truly skilled chop setters to play with an advantage over the house, no matter how slight? inch Be honest with your answer.

Again, "Do you think that the casino allows truly skilled chop setters to play with an advantage over the house, no matter how slight? inch Of course not d20 roll. The casino has the right to refute service to any player for any reason, whether you're too consumed, too obnoxious, too lucky, too skilled, or too anything. If they don't want you playing for any reason, they can tell you to leave and there's nothing you, legal issues, or anyone can do about it. Consider blackjack card desks. Card counting is entirely legal, although if the casino thinks a player is card counting (and, thus, has a small advantage over the house), it immediately removes him from the game. The casino never takes a player advantage. The casino always has the advantage--always. Same with craps. If the casino believes a player has an advantage over the house by means of controlling the chop, it removes him from the game. The bottom line is anytime the chop hit the back wall, no one knows how they'll bounce off those rubber pyramids. That's why casinos allow chop setters to use their wacky tossing routines.

Again, "Do you think that the casino allows truly skilled chop setters to play with an advantage over the house, no matter how slight? inch I've never heard of any of the so-called chop doctors, chop wizards, or famous multi-book dice-control authors getting thrown out of a casino for their dice-tossing skills. Have you? According to their websites and written works, they routinely play in casinos across the globe allegedly beating the crap out of the casino. So, ask yourself again, "Do you think that the casino allows truly skilled chop setters to play with an advantage over the house, no matter how slight? inch

Casinos have been around for a long time. They're big business. Consider the multi-billion dollar resorts in Vegas (yes, that's "billion" with a "b"). Do you honestly think they haven't thoroughly examined the legitimacy of chop control? A player advantage smacks those mega-businesses right where it hurts--in their pouches. Do you honestly think the casinos would withstand and allow a player to play with an advantage over the house? The answer is obvious to me. Is it obvious to you? Put yourself in the casinos' shoes. If you have the right to refute service to anyone for any reason, why would you allow anyone to play with an advantage over you, especially at a craps table? I doubt that you would.

If you agree that casinos do allow dice-control specialists to play, and if you agree that casinos do not let players to play with an advantage over the house, then what does that quickly go over all the books, articles, websites, newsletters, and magazines that claim you can beat the crap out of the casino by using chop control? I don't observe how the answer could be any more obvious or simple. Casinos allow chop setters to play; casinos do not let a player to play with an advantage over the house; therefore, it stands to reason that the casino doesn't believe the chop setter can gain an advantage over the house. It's that simple. You wanted proof that chop control is a scam? That sounds like awfully convincing proof to me, how about you? If it is true that the casino doesn't believe the chop setter can gain an advantage over the house, then why should you believe it?

If you still don't see the light, it's probably because you're desperately attaching to your high desire to beat the crap out of the casino. You want so badly the idea of chop control to be legitimate that you can taste it. You think, "Regardless of what you say, I saw a guy yesterday set the chop and he rolled point after point. It worked for him, so how can you say it doesn't work? inch Simple. It was his turn to get lucky at that particular instant in time. Everyone has good times, underperforming times, and bad times. Even the chop setter gets lucky occasionally. The question is whether the chop setter is consistently a winner. He's not. His hot streak turns cold, just as it does for everyone. Minutes after his hot roll, the chop setter again explains his wacky exercises, but this time he immediately rolls a losing 7-out. As we learned in my other articles, it's not the player's dice-shooting skill or the player's playing system that makes him a winner, it's the distribution variance.
