Gaining an edge at the craps table is possible. It is not easy. It requires lots of practice. However, the edge than can be achieved is much higher than any blackjack card counting method.
There are several components to dice control and all of them must be mastered to obtain an edge at the craps table. The Dice Control 101 series will cover them all. In this installment delivering the dice to the back wall will be covered.
To review from the last installment on delivering the dice to the back wall: Consistency is what dice control is all about. Having a smooth and soft delivery using a pendulum swing helps improve consistency.
Remember the steps of the delivery process.
- Set the dice
- Grab the dice
- Grip the dice
- Align the dice
- Pause and aim the dice
- Back swing – straight back
- Forward swing in a smooth continuous pendulum motion
- Release and follow through
- 45 degree angle
- Landing with a "smack"
- One bounce
- Hit the back wall and die
Practice is critical in obtaining the perfect delivery so practice often.
