I purchased the book from the Amazon.com auction a couple of weeks ago. I liked it, but would not recommend it as a first book on playing craps (for example, there are no pictures showing the crap table layout). If you are someone who has read on the subject before, and/or done a little gambling, you will probably find it good food for thought. Larry is very honest about the problems with some of the systems in the book, and admits that a couple of them will have you sitting out a hot roll. If the table is cold, I can see how his theories might work. I found the section on comps to be invaluable, and plan to follow his advice on my next trip to Vegas. The coupons at the back, however, are not for meals or lodging, but are for subscriptions to the Crapshooter and dollars-off coupons for books. If it weren't for the problems I have pointed out in this review, I would have given the book five stars - Larry is a very entertaining writer, and his style is very easy to read.

1.0 out of 5 stars What a waste of money!, July 8, 1999

What a total joke. The Horn bet system is the funniest thing I have ever read. "You can't lose if you have an unlimited bankroll and no table limits". Yeah, I want to have to bet $500 on the 3 just to try to break even. Please. There is not one good "don't pass" system yet the author is a self claimed don't pass player. What am I missing here? Coupons are a joke.

2.0 out of 5 stars Make Your Living Review, April 24, 2000

This review is from: How to Make Your Living Playing Craps (Paperback)

This book is definitely NOT for the beginner, as it does not tell you how to play the game, and even for the more advanced player, there isn't much you haven't seen before. The book concentrates mostly on right betting, pass line and place bets etc. Although I give it a plus for it's brief chapter about pre-setting the dice, I think the author leads you to believe that gambling is more profitable than it really is. Oh, NEVER play stricly for comps, this will cost you so much more in the long run. Play to win a profit, then you can pay for your own dinner, and have a few dollars left for the gift shop.
