Casino Craps: Simple Strategies for Playing Smart, Lowering Risk, and Winning More
Of all the games in the casino, only one allows the player to engage the house in a fair fight. Craps, when played intelligently and prudently, reduces the house advantage to a miniscule .6 percent, a margin that can be overcome with smart betting and simple money management.
How could casinos afford to offer such a winnable game? What’s the catch? For players willing to devote a little time and patience learning the ins and outs, there is no catch!
Here is the most comprehensive, expert, and reader-friendly guide to casino craps ever written. Robert R. Roto, a documented lifetime winner, has dissected the odds like a surgeon and formulated several systems of variable risk and aggressiveness—all guaranteed to maximize the player’s chances of winning. Whether you are betting with $5 or $1,000 chips, whether you play “right” or “wrong,” whether your strategy is to come in on the Pass line and then switch to Don’t Pass, or you employ the “just did—do that” session rule, Roto will teach you how to milk the casino odds for every percentage point possible.
Too many players refuse to learn the nuances of the game, insisting instead on fattening the casino’s bankroll. Wouldn’t you rather join the author in the winners’ club?

A Good Read.
Roto gives a great overview of the exciting game of craps. Despite the fact that the House (Casino) has one of the lowest advantages of any game on the casino floor, Roto reveals a few strategies to lower that further.
The best takeaway from the book is his straight talk on avoiding the prop bets in the center of the table. Roto calls them "the worst bets the table has to offer."
For anyone seeking to play the game, this book is a must read as it will give you great strategies for winning and a thorough understanding of one of the best games the casino has to offer. Read the book and watch the game at your favorite casino to allow the strategies to sink in.
Take the book to Vegas. Utilize the strategies. Come back a winner.

Hi there! When it comes to gambling discussions, I think a lot of people overlook how convenient mobile apps have become. For example, if you want the full experience with betting, casino games, and even live events in one place, you can just download 1xbet apk and get access right from your phone. What I like most is that the app gives instant access to sports and esports betting, plus it’s designed to be compatible with different devices. It feels much more practical than always using the desktop version, especially if you want quick deposits, withdrawals, or to grab some of the promo offers on the go.

A basic book on craps. The rules of craps are explained adequately, but the chapters on strategy and bet progressions are weak.
