I've played craps for 20 years and it is my favorite casino game because no other player can affect the game. The dice are going to randomly roll based on true percentages. Blackjack on the other hand is influenced by beginning players not understanding when to take a card.

Mr Yeazel's book will teach the beginner all the bets available on a crap layout, the payouts and the house percentage. If you want to enjoy the game, these are all things you should know and understand.

His strategy involves hanging in there until you happen to get in on one of those long rolls that seldom happen, and taking advantage when they do!

In all my years of playing craps I've only been involved with about 5 really long rolls...and I did make decent money. If I had been using Mr Yeazel's strategy I would have made BIG money!

It's a good, no non-sense book and I recommend it to any crap player.

Most of this book is dedicated to basic game play. It does a fair job of explaining the various bets and which ones are "sucker" bets. I agree with the other review in that I was looking for some ways to "Win at Craps".

According to my Kindle:
1-57% is basic game play + the various bets
57-66% is table etiquette
66-83% is how to "win". It covers some good and bad strategies.
83-100% is the glossary

As you can see, only 17% of this book is dedicated to craps strategy. Now I'm not saying the other parts of the book don't have merit, but for someone that knows how to play craps they are a refresher course. The glossary is fun, but, again, not what I wanted from this book. I did like the section that talked about pressing your bets. I found this advice valuable.

It took me about 2 hours to read the entire book, so don't expect an epic journey. But, all in all, a fun read.

Mr. Yeazel provides a thorough guide to the game of craps in a concise and easy to understand manner. I highly recommend it to everyone, from students to seasoned professionals. The table of contents is particularly helpful as are the many illustrations. If you want to have an advantage and improve on your knowledge of craps, this is the ebook for you.
