Shooter Selection Secret
A Special Report
How Do You Really Know If A
Shooter Can Control The Dice?
How do you really know
if a shooter’s dice control
form – set, grip, pick-up, and throw really gives the shooter
an edge over the house?
With the dice control books, websites, schools and
articles increasing the popularity of this latest fad for turning the
tables on the casinos and grabbing the edge over the house, there are
hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of craps shooters who think they know
how to control the dice and avoid the losing 7 during the point cycle.
But most are Johnny-come-latelies;
they may think they can control the dice, but watch out in betting
on them because it’s possible that their dice control form may
actually be worse than random, not better.
The
Shooter Selection Secret Is Consistency
Consistency in the Soft
Landing is key. You want to
see the dice land softly, a few inches from the back wall, one bounce,
two at the most, gently touch the back wall and repel straight back,
softly, with little or no sideways movement.
Watch at least three rolls of the dice; if you see
the dice landing softly in each, you are most likely observing an advantage
shooter who is definitely worth your normal wager in units that you
would risk on yourself. 
To gain more confidence in your shooter, begin your
observation when the dice are pushed back to him by the Stickman.
Look for consistency in the set; if you can see the
set, you would like to see the shooter set the dice the exact same way
for every roll.
Look for consistency
in the grip if you can see it.
There are many different grips, so look for the shooter to grip the
same way for each roll.
Look for consistency
in the backswing and release of the dice into orbit. The dice should
be launched at a 45-degree angle and travel in orbit together, side-by-side,
or “on axis,” as
we say in the trade. The line of flight should be perpendicular
to the back wall.
And finally, look for
consistency in the shooter’s
demeanor. This may be the most important of all the variables.
You want to see the shooter stay calm, cool and
collected. If he is
chatting with the dealer or friend, if he is distracted by the other
players, if he is into the spirit of the game and yelling and shouting
as he rolls point numbers, this is NOT the consistency you want to
see.
We call it The Zone.
If the shooter is throwing winning number after winning number, his
chances of continuing the consistency of his soft landings may well
rest on his ability to maintain his mental state of mind. So keep
an eye on him and watch his landings. If they start to exhibit any
chaos, it may be time to “take me down.”

Control than what I have described above. You’re in the right
