Hi Michael,
My name
is Ray.....I "fell in love" with craps about 7 years ago. I had a big score,
beginner's luck, I guess! Since then, I have had various experiences, trying to
find the system to beat the house odds. I have done a lot of studying of the
game and have learned many lessons. But, I really enjoy your articles about
metaphysics, energy at the table, and the players involved. I have been doing a
lot of meditation on these ideas and recently have been much more successful at
the tables. I usually go with a $1,000 bankroll, with a loss limit of 250.00 and
a win goal of at least 300.00. I would like to attend a Dice-Buster class, but
unfortunately I live in Ohio and airfares are pretty high right now. Do you have
anything besides your articles I can turn to for your valuable information?
Thanks, Ray
Hello Ray,
Like you, I felt that the must be a way around
the house odds. In truth, there is not. However, we can have control of our game
and learn advantages. How we do that is by understanding the game, and knowing
everything about the game. Especially, we need to know why we lose and then
eliminate the reason for losing. This is why I say, “you can win them all”. Of
course this is also a metaphysical practice of affirming that which you intend
to manifest.
In my 18 years of playing dice, I have been
ahead, and winning in most of the games. Only that I continued to play, exposing
myself to the house odds, and I would end up losing the profit along with some
of my own money resulting in a losing session. Short lesson here… I have studied
the game. I continue to study the game and I learn from my mistakes. Sharing my
knowledge of the game comes from my many years of doing what works and
eliminating that which does not. Take the money!
Having had the monster game in the beginning is
almost a curse. At the same time, we always play for that monster game. It is
the pursuit of the elusive prey that makes the hunt so exciting. Hell, how much
fun would it be if it were easy?
I like your game plan. One thing to recognize is
the win goal is to WIN. It is not about how much. The problem with how much is
how it can get us in the losing column. If I had stopped playing in all the
games when I was up 6 units, 8 units, 12 units, what then? Sure the wins would
not add up to much, at first glance. How many of those small profits were pissed
away into a complete loss of the bankroll for that game? Contrast that to what
could have been won to what was eventually lost. Well, because I keep a journal,
I know. I know that at the end of the year, I do win more than I lose. I also
can see where I made silly mistakes playing too long and then chasing the loss
instead of locking up the win.
First thing to do is to keep a journal. This is
the best way to have an honest assessment of what you are doing right and wrong.
Then, eliminate the mistakes forever.

I cannot make comment on your bankroll because
you do not get into the details. On the surface is sounds like you are properly
bankrolled. But without knowing the details of your bets and units, I am not
able to advise help. Understanding that there is more to the game with the
energy provides you with the biggest advantage you can ever have.
Ray, it always comes down to right time, right
place and right action. Take heart in knowing that. Dice Buster may come along
for you or it may not. Accept what is. Trust in the timing. You may not need the
program anyway. Perhaps in time, with experience, it all comes together for you
and fits like a glove.
In my playbook, “The Do’s and Don’t of Dice”, I
cover the plays that you must employ first as a foundation in the game, to other
bets that may like to make. As you might guess from the title, I cover both
sides of the game, pass line, and the don’t pass line. I explain the math of the
game and more aggressive betting options. I do caution players to be
conservative with the more aggressive plays.
I also have articles up at
www.dicesetter.com and
www.dicecoach.com In addition to what
I offer there, you will find other great ideas about playing craps at these web
sites.
Quick note about dice setting, it does work, and
when it does, it can provide an additional advantage. However, it does not work
all the time… Why? We cannot repeat the same occurrence every time… never mind
the dice are cubes.
Last thing, regarding living in Ohio, when the
right time comes, the right thing will happen. Ray, working with abundance has
to do with your connection to a limitless universe. Be careful about what you
say and think about money. I know exactly what you are saying about air fares,
however it is not unfortunate that you life in Ohio, “Ohio is a wonderful place
and it is serving your needs!” Air fares are not holding you back, a lack of
abundance is. Eliminate the thought form of, “I can’t afford it”. If you had the
money, you could afford to attend. See? So, work on changing the thoughts from
the money stopping you, to a belief in money sets you free. It is not the money
stopping you. It’s the belief system of “lack” that is stopping you. Now, that
still does not change the current situation. But at some point, as you change
your beliefs, there will be a shift in the energy for you. For now, it is a
matter of identifying your needs and the funds available for those needs. If the
rent is due tomorrow, you do not say, “I can’t afford a trip”. It is appropriate
action to pay the rent and take care of your immediate business first. Then work
on your plan for the trip. Work on the energy issues over time. Over time you
will see the difference.
A tight comfort zone restricts abundance. A
comfort zone that says, “I am open to receiving more of everything for my
highest good”, allows for many more options. You can have your job and you can
discover other streams of income for example. You can increase your energy at
work and the boss comes over to offer you a promotion for your 100% kick ass
ways of getting things done.
The neat thing is this, time really does not
exist. It is a fabrication of this dimension. The shift does not have to take a
life time or even a day. Once you align with the concepts of abundance, the
shift can occur in a flash of a smile or the blink of an eye.
The universe works in mysterious ways. We only
have to align to a belief in the ways of its workings. We do not have to totally
understand the how and why. Few people really understand the workings of an
internal combustion engine, but that does not stop them from being successful
drivers.
