How to use the 5-Count to bet on random rollers.
How to get more comps than you actually deserve.
How to get a monetary edge.

The book has a great section on darkside playing too.

The chapter on the Captain, his complete life story, is facinating. This is the father of the dice control movement and Scoblete really lets us meet him in a close way.

This book, as all Scoblete books, is well written and loaded with information.

This Craps title isn't worth your time. It's full mostly of stories about craps players, and vague advice on the potential of dice control. The centerpiece of the book is the highly touted '5-count', which is nothing more than a betting system that gives you no chance of diminishing the house edge. Get Sharpshooter's book instead.

The greatest craps book ever written interms of how to get an edge over the house, including the story of the Captain, who just rolled 147 numbers!!!! You can read about this great roll at golden touch craps web site under the world records. The five steps to advantage play in this book can make you a winner.

This is the first craps strategy book I've read. I'm reading a second now in preparation for an upcoming trip to Vegas.

Forever Craps was a disappointment. There's an occasional tip that seems reasonable, but it states the obvious a lot... what a pass line bet is, what ALL the bets are. Unless you've never even stepped up to a craps table and thrown the dice, it goes on for a while with obvious information.

I'm not disputing the concept of controlling the dice, but this book doesn't really help you find that control.

One thing that all the skeptics out there need to understand is that Scoblete doesn't claim that the 5 count system used on random rollers will win in the long run. As a matter of fact, Scoblete would be one of the first people to admit this. The only time that a person can obtain an edge on the house is when he(or she) is either setting the dice, or is betting on someone else who is setting the dice(people otherwise known as "ryhmic rollers")

He only suggests the five count to SAVE you money, not WIN you money. Trust me. When the the table turns ice cold, you will thank the five count as it will save you a lot of money for not betting on those bad rolls and quick seven outs. When the table turns hot, you will be thankful of the five count for helping you find those hot rhythmic rollers and giving you the extra money to spare that would have been blown on the cold shooters if you had been betting on them every roll.

For all you people out there that claim that "Nobody can really control the dice. It's impossible!" I feel very very very sorry for you because you are ignorant in the fact that it has been INDESPUTABLY AND MATHEMATICALLY PROVEN that people have and still are controlling the dice by obtaining a sevens to rolls ratio of 1 to 7 or higher(when the ratio for random rollers is 1 to 6) which gives those players and everyone else who bets on them A MATHEMATICAL EDGE OVER THE HOUSE IN THE LONG RUN!!! If you are still arguing against this concept, that just shows that you are obviously not educated enough on the game of craps or the concept of kinematics and projectile motion to offer your opinions on the matter. So before you start arguing with a Physicist about projectile motion or telling a mathematician that 2 + 2 is not equal to 4, do your homework first and protect yourself from getting embarressed online in front of thousands of people for your half-brained opinions.

In conclusion, if you are a recreational craps player, or a serious gambler, you need this book. There is no other way to obtain an edge over the house at craps in the long run without Scoblete's and the Captain's strategy other than cheating. I would bet my life on it because it has been mathematically proven and is indesputable. Learn the 5 count, learn to set and control the dice.
