Summary: No longer clueless
Review: I have always been intimidated by craps because I knew NOTHING about it. I found this book very helpful in describing the odds and protocol. When I used the advice at the table, dealers talked to me as if I were a professional gambler, and by playing conservatively and consistantly, I won money at the table when everyone around me was losing. I love craps!

Summary: It worked for me
Review: I thought this book was great. I read it on my way to Vegas, and tripled my money. Yes, it's for beginners, but it teaches you tips and lingo so you don't look, sound, or play like one.

Summary: Right on the money for beginners
Review: John Patrick is dead on. I love this book because it explains a professional gambler's betting strategy and why in terms understood by a beginner. I knew very little about craps except that I liked the energy of the game. The book was great for explaining the types of bets and the pros & cons of each. The style was honest and very enjoyable. Do not expect to make the big hit with the methods in this book. The numerous small hits may not be as exciting but really add up.I read the book, downloaded some casino software, and became disciplined with the strategies on my PC. Weeks later I went to Vegas to try my variation of Twenty Two Inside. At the end of the trip my small winnings and ultra-conservative style added up to $350 and I was (very very) lucky enough to take money from all seven casinos I played. I could sense that the macho players were mocking me when I stated 'Take Me Down'. Of course, a couple of rolls later the 7 popped up and they watched the dealer take their money. John was dead on about this too.

Summary: Want to win at Craps?
Review: Mr. Patrick's book "Craps for the clueless" has allowed me to win at craps almost everytime I play. Yes there has been days when I violated the rules he has layed down and went home a loser but usually under $100 bucks. I just got back from Lake Tahoe and took them for $170.00 large. ha Just learn the place bets of putting your money on 6 and 8. that is all you need. Of course a 2-way hard 6 is nice when you are winning and remember to give the bar babe at least a $5 dollar chip when she comes by with your drink, you cheap ass.

Review: This book doesn't really have much of interest in it. For just a little bit more money you can buy "American Mensa Guide to Casino Gambling" which has a lot of good information.

Summary: Repetitive and uninspired
Review: Unfortunately this book contains little that is not already contained in the Patrick series. I was very disappointed with the sometimes patronizing advice. Don't bother with this if you play much craps, there's nothing you don't know. There are much better reads for beginners also. John Patrick also needs to consult a dictionary more often.
