Now I know............ November 13, 2008
I never could fully understand how to play "craps" and always avoided the crap table but after reading "No-nonsense" I can now say I understand it much better and can't wait to try it. I recommend it to the beginner and the experienced player alike. One warning: don't skip any chapters.
Easy to understand October 1, 2008
As someone who had no idea how to play Craps, I now feel confident in myself to play the game. This is an excellent book for a beginner and reading it will allow you enjoy the game more!

This book was just that, No-Nonsense. The author presented the game of craps in a way that a beginner can easily learn. He then gave his own strategy of playing craps that is also easy to learn along with other tips about the game and gambling in general. The author does not set out to claim he will make you rich at gambling. He, instead, presented a way to have fun a craps while also having the chance to come out a winner during some sessions of play. The book is relatively short, but the information is superb for anyone that is new to the game, or even for the hardened player who may be looking at another way to approach the game.

Great book on craps. Doesn't try to push some system on you. Just tells you what there is to know about craps and how to get started. He gives you one "system" but is really just a 'way to play the game' not a gimmick that is supposed to make you into a long term winner. Recommended!

As with most of the other reviewers, I was anxious to get on the craps table but didn't know the first thing about how to play. I heard it was statistically an advantageous game for the player compared to others in the casino, but once again that assumes the player knows the correct strategies and what to bet on. This book solves all of those problems. Not only is it a great introduction to the rules and format of craps, but the author lays out an easy to learn strategy that exploits the small house advantage. The author's writing is straightforward and is free from all of the unnecessary fluff that comes with a lot of other how-to books. The math is easy enough that you don't need an advanced statistics degree but in depth enough that you are confident in the numbers he is throwing at you. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in learning craps or looking for an effective "game plan" to enhance your dice-rolling experience.
