As an example, for me, if the dice are not going straight down the table, my shoulders are not square.  Amazing results when I do the right thing.<br \/>\n\tEnough of that, the people on this forum don&#8217;t need to hear that stuff.<br \/>\n\tThe only comment I wanted to make is about betting and the 5 count.<br \/>\n\tI played on Sunday night at the casino.  I was in the hook and not throwing on the first table.  I used the 5 count on every shooter, a $15 table with 2x odds.<br \/>\n\tI started with $400 and the dice went around twice.  All random rollers.  I ended up cashing in $675, up $275.<br \/>\n\tThe second table I got my spot at SL1 and did the same 5 count on everyone and Come betting.  Most other players were leaving broke or throwing more money in to stay.  I started with $400 and went down to $200, but when I throw the dice the first time I make one point and then 7 out.  Went around again and I still hade $200 left.  The second time I threw I hit a total of 5 points, 3 in a row to start, repeater after repeater.  I was come betting myself and threw around 20.  At the end I cashed in $550.<br \/>\n\tIn both sessions I hit my goal, to double my buy in.  If not for the 5 count I would have gone home a loser like all the other random rollers at the table.<br \/>\n\tSo the $400 profit covered most of my tuition for the refresher class in AC.<br \/>\n\tLife is good.<br \/>\n\tThanks again for all the GTC instructors and to all the new friends I met.<br \/>\n\tSee you at the tables.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Finisher on February 25, 2020, 4:56 pm<\/p>\n<div>Glad to hear you had a great class and good report hope to see more .<br \/>\n\tGood Rolling.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> NofieldFive on February 25, 2020, 8:35 pm<\/p>\n<div>CliffM1,<\/p>\n<p>\tThat is an awesome report.

Dom has a great crew of  instructor&#8217;s !   They can quickly spot any bad form quickly and get us back on track.   My most profitable outing  was Monday morning my last day at a 12 foot table with a 5 min and 5x odds with 6x on the 5 and 9 .   It started pretty poorly.  Point,7 Point, crap 7  &gt;&gt; I&#8217;m like settle down clear your mind and think about what they told you.  I made sure my arm was straight remembered what Billy the kid had told me and told me.  Less back swing !  settled in and away we went !   after about 20 throws I told the dealer I think I&#8217;m getting dialed in!  He was like oh yes your dialed in my man !   I&#8217;m normally not a large better but I started maxing odds on all my bets.  I would usually keep 3 working bets.  Pass line and 2 comes.  Sometimes up to 4 ..  I was repeating on 5 and 9.  I was putting out a LOT of white chips for the dealers.  The stickman did not crowd me or like some have done to me lean into the table and get it bouncing while your trying to get set.  Well after I have some collections the suit shows up the box person completely disappeared and the SUIT was watching but never sat in the box person&#8217;s spot this was in the morning so maybe because the floor was not busy smaller casino.  I finally 7 out and figured it was time to start the drive home.  The Suit colored up my chips and I was surprised that I had nearly doubled my buy in, this is not the normal for me.  I hope this is the NEW normal. A huge thank you to Dom and all the great instructors. Dom your right &quot;Winning is the MOST fun !&quot;<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> CliffM1 on February 26, 2020, 12:01 pm<\/p>\n<div>JackD<\/p>\n<p>\tIt was fun throwing with you in Laughlin and Vegas during the trip out.<br \/>\n\tYou have a great throw, I learned a few things watching you.<br \/>\n\tAnd we generally left with more chips than we started with, a good thing.<br \/>\n\tHopefully we can catch up in April in Laughlin.<br \/>\n\tIf not, I am planning on a refresher in AC in May.<\/p>\n<p>\tThanks again for your help.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Dr Crapology on February 26, 2020, 3:38 pm<\/p>\n<div>Always a pleasure to work with you.

That 5 count is such a great thing!  I was at the table in Laughlin and someone next to me was like your not putting any bets out ?  <br \/>\n\tThe shooter was arguing with the dealers and box person about something, I told the guy next to me, The DICE have ears.  The shooter sevens out after about 3 throws the guy next to me was like wow you called that 1.   Like our instructors told us you have to have lines. <\/p>\n<p>\tYou can have an excellent throw but if you don&#8217;t bet correctly you are not betting into your edge.  I have my first 5000 rolls recorded and working on my 2nd 5000 to see if my SRR will improve, I&#8217;m sure it will after the class.  A higher SRR, the 5 Count, and Come betting I know that I will have an advantage. <\/p>\n<p>\tJackD.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Works Magic on February 27, 2020, 6:30 am<\/p>\n<div>Loved this seminar.
