Time to buy the book, and make millions, right? Wrong: dice control is a physical skill, very different from the discipline of card counting in blackjack. I tell people that it&#8217;s a raw physical talent on order of complexity to juggling four balls without errors for many minutes at a time (and not two in each hand, for those who&#8217;ve tried!).<\/p>\n<p>\tDice control takes practice. And then, a whole bunch more practice. And then, you have to learn how to transfer that skill into the much more difficult realm of the casino floor. And then you&#8217;re going to have good days and bad days, when you&#8217;re &quot;hot&quot; or &quot;cold&quot; (not luck\u2026 but days when your dice influence skill is good or bad). If you want to get serious about dice control, be prepared to make a different and much larger time commitment compared to blackjack.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Who wrote this?<\/strong><\/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> Pointman on August 24, 2012, 8:02 pm<\/p>\n<div>Craps for Profit: The Math of Dice Control<\/p>\n<p>\tBy Dan Pronovost<\/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> Guest on August 24, 2012, 8:04 pm<\/p>\n<div>\n<blockquote><p>Post by Pointman \u00bb 24 Aug 2012 16:02<br \/>\n\tCraps for Profit: The Math of Dice Control<\/p>\n<p>\tBy Dan Pronovost<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.goldentouchcraps.com\/CrappyMath\/math0001.shtml\">http:\/\/www.goldentouchcraps.com\/CrappyMath\/math0001.shtml<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\tOur site <span style=\"color: #FF0000\">admin<\/span> <\/p>\n<p>\n\tand Craps Player Dan Pronovost<\/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> Pointman on August 24, 2012, 8:23 pm<\/p>\n<div>Don&#8217;t forget the developer of SmartCraps and other software.<\/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> Timmer on August 24, 2012, 8:29 pm<\/p>\n<div>And don&#8217;t forget that the brilliant Pointman is a member of the WCC champions&#8230; <\/p>\n<p>\tThe Dream Team!<\/p>\n<p>\t \ud83d\ude0e  \ud83d\ude0e  \ud83d\ude0e<\/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> Guest on August 24, 2012, 8:33 pm<\/p>\n<div>\n<blockquote><p>And don&#8217;t forget that the brilliant Pointman is a member of the WCC champions&#8230; <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\n\t<strong>And quick on the draw&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\tI hardly had that posted when the answer arrived!<\/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> Pointman on August 24, 2012, 8:40 pm<\/p>\n<div>It was just a timing thing, CIII.
