How to Achieve an
Advantage at Casino Craps
By Using Dice Control -- Part 3 of 3
By Jerry Patterson
Part 4: The Five
Skills Necessary to Achieve a Consistent and Permanent Advantage
over the Casinos including The Zone (See offer for free audiotape
at end of this Part 3)
Craps is the only casino
game in which the player can create his or her own real edge over
the casino. This is done by learning how to control the dice from
the set through the launch and altering the physics of the game
-- reducing the chances of the losing 7 occurring during the point
cycle, when the shooter is trying to repeat his point number:
4,5,6,8,9,10.
You have read Lessons
1, 2, and 3 of this series of articles for learning how to use
dice control create your own advantage at casino craps.
These lessons concerned
how to set the dice, how to spot other craps shooters who might
possess the ability to control the dice and what other writers
and players are saying about dice control.

The Five Skills Required
to Achieve an Advantage at Craps Using Dice Control
In my dice control
course called PARR for Patterson Rhythm Roll, we call them the
five linchpins. They are:
** The Set
** The Grip
** The Throw
** The Bet
** The Zone
This last linchpin,
the Zone, is the most important and is the subject of the Free
Gift described at the end of this Special Report I will send you
at your request.
THE SET
The Set
is where it starts. Setting the dice puts the losing sevens out
of the way to reduce their chances of hitting. In **Casino Gambling**
Chapter 12, you were introduced to two sets to accomplish this
objective -- the 6-T Set and the Quick Set both described on pages
128 and 129.
The Quick Set is the
easiest -- just make sure, when the dice are returned to you by
the Stickman, that a 7 does NOT show on the side. If one does,
rotate either die a quarter turn to eliminate the losing 7.
THE GRIP
The Grip is important
because it prepares you to launch the dice with control. The recommended
Grip, a 3-fingered front, is explained and exhibited in Chapter
12 on page 131 of **Casino Gambling.**
THE THROW
The Throw itself is
performed with the objective of keeping the dice together in their
orbit to minimize their "splatter" during touchdown
and roll against the back wall of the table, thus achieving control.
This is accomplished by launching the dice at about a 45-degree
angle. You can visualize a 45-degree angle by understanding that
straight up would be 90 degrees. So 45 is about halfway between
the craps table bed and throwing the dice straight up in the air.
The Throw or Delivery
is explained on page 130 of **Casino Gambling.**
Sharpshooter has proved
mathematically that it only takes one throw with control out of
43 throws to achieve a break-even status against the casino.
Anything above one
controlled throw in 43 and you have turned the tables on the casino
and created your own advantage. For example, Sharpshooter has
also shown (on page 124) that if you can throw the dice seven
times during the point cycle, instead of the random six times,
you can achieve an advantage of just under 10% on the 6 and 8
place bets.
Many of our over 500
PARR Players have achieved a Sevens-to-rolls ratio of 1 to 7 or
higher.
Imagine how it would
feel to make pass line bets and place bets with the confidence
of collecting winnings, sometimes substantial winnings, and have
a monster hand before throwing the losing seven? And all of this
based on your own skill level, not dependent on the shuffle at
the blackjack table, or the spin of the wheel at roulette, or
the fickleness of the baccarat cycles of wins and losses.
Onward to the fourth
linchpin.
THE BET
You were introduced
to the fourth linchpin -- the Bet -- in Chapter 13 of **Casino
Gambling** with alternative betting tactics to match the degree
of risk you wish to take and to maximize your chances of making
a profit on the point cycle -- your rolls, and numbers hit --
before throwing the losing 7. The most important of these are
your pass line bet with odds and the 6 and 8 place bets.
THE ZONE
Now comes the most
important linchpin of all -- focus and concentration. We call
this "The Zone" and define it as a mental state that
allows us to separate from distractions and focus and concentrate
on utilizing the muscle memory we have developed for the first
three linchpins -- the set, the grip and the throw.
One of the five departed
friends I dedicated **Casino Gambling** to was Dr. Steven Heller.
Dr. Heller was a prominent and extremely successful practicing
psychologist in the Southern California area who worked with professional
athletes showing them how to "zone in" to make contact
with the golf ball or sink the three point shot or make solid
contact and stroke the baseball, for example.
His legacy to all PARR
Players is called The PARR Zone. In it, he shows craps shooters
how to easily "zone in" before each roll of the dice
thus maximizing their chances of throwing another winning number.
OK, let's get to the Free Gift I mentioned at the top because
it concerns Dr. Heller's application of The Zone to dice control.

Free Audiotape
I would like to send
you at no cost or obligation an audiotape. It begins with Doctor
Heller talking about The Zone and its importance not only in craps,
but in other walks of life as well. This was recorded about six
months before his death from pancreatic cancer in November 1997.
Following Dr. Heller
is a discussion about The Zone in my most recent PARR Class held
in Las Vegas in March 2001. You will hear Instructors and students
discussing their use of the Zone in casino sessions just an hour
or so before the tape was recorded. You will hear them talk about
what it meant to their success and about what happened when they
were in the Zone and what happened and why when they exited the
Zone too quickly.
You will find this
audiotape extremely interesting and enlightening even if you have
no interest in purchasing the complete PARR Dice Control Course.
Most important of all,
this audiotape comes with a special deep discount offer for my
PARR dice control course.
You may request this
audiotape by e-mailing my Nevada Office at:
jpe21@aol.com
Write ZONE in the subject
box and your complete snail mail address in the body of the e-mail.
The six chapters on
Dice Control in **Casino Gambling** are a good way to start your
dice control career. You can use the instruction in them to learn
dice control on your own.
Why would you want
to purchase a dice control course when you can learn the skill
on your own?
But here are five reasons
you may wish to consider acquiring my PARR Dice Control Course:
1. PARR is comprehensive:
The course includes
home study, home practice, classroom instruction, dealer school
practice at real craps tables and even in-casino training.
2. PARR comes with
a unique betting strategy called "Signature Trend" which
gets your money on those numbers you are throwing more often than
others - the repeaters!
PARR delivers an advantage over the casino, but you still must
bet correctly to exploit that advantage. Signature Trend gets
you on those numbers you are throwing back-to-back-to-back in
this hand.
3. Your classroom experience
features, in my opinion shared by most PARR Players, the best
instructor in country, Sharpshooter, who explains and demonstrates
the data in a way that makes learning an exciting experience.
4. PARR comes with
a supplemental course on "The Zone."
Learning dice control
is similar to learning a sport; muscle memory is involved. Zoning
in, or focusing, enables you to recall that muscle memory skill
and throw the dice the same way every time.
5. PARR is ongoing.
You have continuous
access to your instructors and scores of other players through
an Internet E-mail List Server. Use it to get your questions answered,
to receive updates and enhancements to the PARR data, to get in-casino
critiques of your throwing form, and, best of all, to connect
with other PARR Players and multiply your profits through joint
play. No other dice control learning program even comes close!
Best of all, you can
acquire PARR with no financial risk whatsoever! Your course comes
with a six-month unconditional guarantee!
A detailed newsletter
describing the course will be sent with your free audiotape containing
a deeply discounted offer.
OK, if you haven't
yet requested your free audiotape, please do so now by e-mailing
my Nevada Office (there is no cost or obligation):
jpe21@aol.com
Write ZONE in the subject
box and your complete snail mail address in the body of the e-mail.
Be assured that just
as your e-mail address has and will remain totally confidential,
so will your snail mail address NOT be given to any person, company,
casino or institution of any kind.
Enjoy!
