When all you math people figure out probabilities you do not consider the dice
may be biased. There is also a chance that someone switched the dice or the
dealers are cheating. If this happens the math is useless

Let me have at him.

Are you for real????
You are sick, sick, sick.
Have you no faith in your fellow man??
Get thee to a nunnery.
Dealers NEVER cheat.
Dice are NEVER switched.
Get REAL.

My favorite system is based on "biased dice," however it is not because
of switching or cheating... if that exists it is so minimal that it can be
ignored. Switched dice would be immediately discovered, and the house
does not need to cheat.

Back to "biased dice." It is possible for them to wear ever so slightly
in the 8 hours or so that they are in use. Also, they may not have been
perfect when they were made. Therefore, a method of play that takes
advantage of the direction in which the decisions are going would be
probably be successful in that situation, at least enough to overcome
a mere 1.4% disadvantage. The method is my parlay method where
you bet that the decision before last will repeat, and parlay up to
5 times the original bet (you can make it more than 5 if you wish, but
5 seems to be the most practical). Then, leave it until it loses. This
is published on my web site, and I have used it for several years on
my infrequent visits to casinos.

only an idiot casino would insert balonies into a craps game. the game
is positive for the casino, especially in the long haul, and they have
no reason to cheat.

all I was saying is you can not rely on the math. I like the parlay system.
But, you can not keep a closed mind to the cheating. Whenever fast money is
around crime is around.

Maybe other towns are different, but in Missouri we have very strict
regulations and a very strict onsite gaming commission. Most of the dealers
love their jobs and don't want to go to jail. When the boats first opened
here, some people tried it and they were all fired and prosecuted. It's
virtually impossible to cheat. Why would a dealer want to cheat the players
when they provide more than half of our salary? That's not to say that we
don't make mistakes but they're honest mistakes. You should always keep track
of your bets.
