Craps is now enjoying the great popularity. The complicated layout, the big number of wager variants and the noisy crowd that usually gathers around the craps table can seem however frightening for many novices. Nevertheless, more money is presently involved in this game than in any casino game all over the world.

Numerous gamblers like the lively crowd usually surrounding the craps table in the casino guide. It is amazing how many superstitions and etiquette rules exist in craps. Therefore it is necessary first to learn craps etiquette and only then start playing, because you may make everyone extremely angry if you pronounce by chance the word ‘seven.’ The huge number of etiquette rules and superstitions may result from the fact that craps is one of the oldest casino games ever existing; craps is in fact the most ancient recorded mention of a gambling game with the use of dice.

Craps offers better odds than all the other casino games. Skillful gamblers can even obtain an arithmetical advantage over the casino.

The evidently complicated table layout and a big number of wager options may be frightening for beginners. Fortunately, the table layout and betting options only seem difficult but they are not in fact. In its essentials, craps is round game. Each game has only two rounds. The first one is referred to as the Come Out round, the second one – as the Point round.

The most difficult problem for craps starters is not to remember the rules, but the terms widely used in the game. What intimidates the player who finally overcome his fear and approached the noisy, rowdy craps table is the language the gamblers are speaking: it seems to be a foreign one due to the plenty of strange words. That’s why it is indispensable to study both rules and ‘craps slang’, this way you will have a chance to understand and speak the craps language.

Though craps has two differing rounds, just one basic wager is available. The main aim in the Come Out round is for the shooter – the one who throws the dice – to roll a 7 or an 11. Getting these numbers, he automatically becomes a winner of the first round. If the shooter rolls a 2, 3, or a 12, he automatically loses. The numbers 2, 3, and 12 are referred to as craps. The occurrence of other number – 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10 – will make the game proceed to the second round – the Point.

Below you can see some types of the movements of the lines, which can give 55% of the winnings (with the equal chances) while the long lasting game.

• If the lines starts with the fore, which then moves continuously in the same direction, you should go alongside it. If the fire is increasing, you may bet on the favorite, but if it declines – bet on the outsider.
• If the line stays in one position you should bet on the favorite.
• If the line moves in one direction from the opening till one hour to the beginning of the game in the basketball and till 5-6 hours before the beginning of the game in the American football and then abruptly goes in the another direction, you should go after it.
• If the line (fora) stays from the moment of publishing, and then makes one last, strong movement, let’s pretend on one point, you can go after it also.
• In the general case the last movement of any line is a right direction for you.

This easy method to do stakes in the sport will bring you meaningful income. The one disadvantage is choosing the games for the lines. My offer is to play all games, or if you have got the system, you should first choose all the stakes, which are important with its help, and then try to prove their rightness with the help of the line’s movements.

If you play only those games, which are based with the lines’ movements, you can increase the percent of your winnings very much. To go against the lines, is the same that to swim against the stream – you won’t be able to do it, or if you will do, it will be a very little part of the distance.

Your system can bring the lottery, but if you go against the lines, it will decrease the chances to the 45% or even less. Why don’t you start with the winning 55% and add there your own quality predictions?

In the coming soon season I use all these facts in the betting in the university basketball, at once after the first of January. I’ll play the most of totals of NBA. I think I’ll get the result which will be 100 units in the university kinds, and a little more in the NBA, I mean both the totals and the stakes against the fora.

He was especially well-informed about the time periods of movements of the lines and about the results of the movements. Not using any other information he played the line in the universities kinds of sports and in the totals. Because he was my employer, he gave me the results of his work but he never told me about his know-how, which helped him to do that. That gave me the income but I was sad, because I and three my best handicappers, the results of whom could be much better were only the average in the best point.

This man, Ron, after some period of time told me some of his secrets. Not having any great help from him I became to study the lines myself, I only knew he had found something useful, and I started to look for some similar points in the winnings and losses.

There are a lot of things the describing of which can make the size of the text much bigger, that’s why I’ll only describe here some basic and easy principles, which will make the good thing for the good player and the handicapper. Because of the number of the readers who are skeptical about my information, I’m not very worried that telling out this information will make some difficulties to someone.

To use the line as a basis for your predictions right, you should take the lines from a lot of sources, a lot of times, beginning with the starting to almost the final line. The lines can be looked after at the various Internet book-maker offices.

For the university football it’s enough to get the movements of the lines once or twice a day.

For the basketball you need obligatory to check the lines few times a day, but keep in your mind that you need to have the first line too.

We might analogically predict the results of the games with better, than nice percent of the winnings, knowing how to read the information, which is in the published lines. But the differences in the lines can mean absolutely different things in the professional sport and in the university match.

The next indention of the text has the opposite point to the above told, in my opinion.

There is a well-known contention that the public is stupid, so it is wise to go against Mr. Average or John Q. Public in the NFL, NBA and Baseball, or professional sports per se. This adage or contention relates to the truth.

If a line opens up at –3, moves to –4, and subsequently to –4.5, it could be a good favorite bet. It’s a general principle, but needs some further analysis. It is not my purpose here, however, to go into the many subtleties of handicapping the betting line in the pros.

It is quite subtle, and to into it thoroughly enough to convince average bettor of its validity is beyond the scope of this chapter. Betting totals (overs/unders) on the other hand, fits quite well into the premise I am about to reveal.

In the university football, and even more, in the university basketball using of the information about the lines can give the biggest profit. In these kinds of sport, I mean university, the line is moved not be the public, not the average player. It is moved by the experienced players, insiders and well-informed handicappers. Their experts’ marks, expressed with the bet money, plus the abilities to understand the dynamics of the game – it is what moves the line.

At the moment I’ve not only grown the interest of my readers, but also I’ve increased the stream of the skepticism and in some cases even the negative relation to my words. But you have got enough of the curiosity, I believe in it, to continue reading.

I’m sure that the ambition to do that is connected with the desire to get the inside satisfaction after the knowing of the secret of my system, after the proving that all this is foolishness. And let’s continue after such a beginning.

You should obviously ask me, why do I share my secret, which can help a lot of people to win the stakes on sports? We all understand, that if everyone knew how to win in some situations, the line would be changed the way, to destroy entire information, which could become widespread, well-used and help people to win easily.

A very strange phenomenon exists in the area of the sport betting

It seems that the bigger part of people, who steps on the difficult way of the stakes in the sport area, divides in three categories:

1. It is a person, who reads specialized texts, magazines, newspapers and considers himself a specialist in this area. He examines the stakes on sport as a challenge to his own”I”, to his desire to win. He can even not believe in the existence of the profitable methods of the prediction and rely only on his luckiness. In some way he believes he’s the only one.
2. It is a person, who considers the sport betting as the challenge to him and he develops a special his own system, which he believes is a very clever technology of predicting. The biggest part of such players predict not better than if they threw up a playing block. That happens because their system is usually not very right or it is even unprofitable. If the strategy isn’t right is will give him the equal chances, 50:50.

But if the gambler has the second variant, he’ll have got more lost money than won. It’s interesting to notice that this type of the players feel themselves very confident and doubting in his system. He’s sure that he can be proud that he has developed this system. Or he had taken the most perspective, in his opinion, system or theory, confirmed with the results of the last games.

The history is only history, the theory is only theory and all the systems are good in using them with the previous games. But these people all the time fall in the same pit. It’s difficult to reassure them n something. For them it’s better to lose some their playing banks one by one, than change something in their system of the game.

3. The third type of the gamblers is similar to me. The player has the successful system of predicting and he does the stakes on the sport with the cleverness. For him it’s a way to earn money. But even among these people a lot don’t want to do anything, to make their winning system better.

That’s why telling out the information which will be useful to every professional or even an amateur, I don’t feel that this information can influence the general situation in any way. The book-makers won’t be interested in these methods, and they won’t give it any attention. The book-makers of Las-Vegas have already made their opinion and their philosophy, not even telling about their methods of getting money from the people, which have been checked by the years.

That’s why I believe that they won’t study me methods for a very long time, although they are checked by the experience absolutely. Some people can read it and reap their shoulders, some may even find something interesting for them, but for most nothing will change. I’m absolutely sure in it. In another case I wouldn’t publish this method at all.

“Going After” Gambling Strategy: Pros and Cons #3

And now a few practical advices to play the “going after”

1. We bet with the help of the” going after” the whole football championship on the draw games( Italy, Spain, France) – the percent of the draw games comes to the 30% and this promises not bad profit, thus for the “going after” one championship you need about 200-300$, and this is not so much.

2. go after the totals in the baseball and the NBA – knowing because the experience and statistics I can make you sure that the iterations are 4-5 stakes (if you choose the teams right).

3. go after the totals in football – the best to do it is in Germany – people bet more than 2.5 very often, but betting on less than 2.5 – you can get a big coefficient.

But you should remember that the “goings after” is a very dangerous category of the betting, like all progressive stakes, where you need to increase the sum of the stakes, that’s why after getting into the long series this strategy can lead you to the bankruptcy.

The beginning of the post – More About “Going After” Gambling System #1

It works best of all in the case of the events which have in some degree equal credibility (for example, on totals with the same coefficients on the under and over).

Speaking about the kinds of the “going after” some experienced gamers selects such kinds – lonely “going after” and global “going after”.

The sense of the alone “going after” strategy is that if, for example, the player sees that the team plays for already five matches five totals over or under, and any time has played the draw game, he bets on this team under or draw game; after the loss – again this event and so on till the winning. After this, the “going after” stops. It means that we “go after” one event in the little part of the time.

The global “going after” gambling strategy is the “going after” during which the team (or some teams) and a certain event are chosen, and during the season the gambler “goes after” this team all the time on this event. In this case the team (or teams) is “went after” during the long period of time.

Earlier post about “Going After” System:

The experienced gamblers use usually both kind of the “going after”, sometimes they even combine them.

What to overtake? The most popular object for the catch up are the totals, because the most pleasant overtake is that, which lasts no longer than3-4 iterations. That’s why we should choose for the overtake of the event the championship or the team, for which this event is usual. To do that, we should analyze the statistics not only of the present championship, but of some previous too.

While the “going after” on totals we can get enough with the comparing only coefficients at the book-makers’; for example in the typical “low-level” football championships (France – the first and the second divisions, and the second division of Spain) the coefficients on total under seldom are higher than 1.6.

But on the overtake, which wins often the coefficients are not very high too. That means, to get the considerable income you should or bet a big sum (which is dangerous with the financial crash if you get into the series of the event opposite to “going after”) or choose the event for the overtake with the big coefficients (for example, the draw games).

In the last case, the winnings will be seldom, but the sum of the stake will increase more confidently. You can use the double overtake: at the same time do the “going after” the stake with the fixed sum on the opposite event.

The sum of the pure income in this case will be little, but the bankrupting isn’t dangerous for you at all. The best for the overtake is football, and exactly the stakes on the draw games and the totals (it’s not a secret now). But football has one really serious disadvantage: matches are played only once (or twice) a week, it means that sometimes you need to wait for the winning the whole month. This disadvantage disappears while the “catching up” of the group of teams or the entire championship. And now about the NBA and the NHL and the baseball.

The “area” for the “goings after” is rather big here, but it has some minuses. First of all the size of the total isn’t usual’ it can change, especially in the NBA, what can lead to the increase the period of time when of the number of the matches without the winning and we have to increase the stakes.

However, the games are three or four times a week, the iteration won’t be longer than two weeks, though it can lasts for 6-7 matches and how you understand in this case we have to have a lot money to be able to bet on every next game while the iteration.

It is the most popular strategy among gamblers, who aren’t professionals yet, but not novices already.

Because the sense of the “going after” is getting the income after the winning even if you had a lot of previous losses. The progression of the sum of the stakes depends on the coefficient strongly. If the coefficient of the event which is “gone after” isn’t less than two, you can use the martingale as a strategy without any corrections.

Though the “going after” is used for the events with a little coefficients, and that’s why you have to work with a financial strategy in this case. If the coefficient of the “going after” can’t be lees that already known meaning for each iteration, the permanent coefficient of the multiplying the stake C can be counted with the formula:

C=1+ (1/(k-1))

Where k – it’s a minimal possible size of the coefficient. Then in even the worst case your winning will be (k-1)*S0, where S0 – it’s a sum of the initial stake. This way is the most advantageous for the “going after” the event with a big coefficient. If the coefficient is more than two, then the martingale will give a great growing of the sizes of the stake comparing with the formula.

That’s why you should better use the formula. But the most often the “gong after” are used in the betting on the events with the coefficients 1.5-1.8 (the totals), and here the best is to use the formula, which gives the sizes of the stake S depending on the sum W, which you would like to have after the pure lottery (the formula is rather good for the “going after” on the events, the coefficients of which are changing all the time).

S= (W+Sn)/ (k’-1)

Where the Sn – is lost during the “going after” sum (the sum of all lost stakes after the last winning, or, if there is no lottery, after the beginning of the “going after”), K’ – present coefficient.

If your purpose is to get the percent N*100% after the finishing of the “going after” from one bet, your next stake should be counted with this formula:

S=(Sn*(N+1))/(K’-N-1)

Thus, it’s necessarily to determine the size of the initial stake, leading by your own tastes and views. If the event will be overtaken during the first iteration, we’ll get that percent only in the case, when K’=N+1, with any size of the stake.
