The Craps Answer Book: How To Make One Of The Best Bets In The Casino Even Better

Rating:
Summary: 5 Stars for Experienced Player 1 Star for Novice
Review: This book is NOT for novice or even modestly-experienced -- despite what the book or editorial review says. Knowledge-dump by experts is not effective in organizing info for your brain -- nor for that most important thing: helping you acquire a perspective. This book is definitely knowledge-dump. This is no way to learn the game. However, if you already know the rules of craps, this book is marvelous. It cuts thru all kind of hype, gimmics, systems-crap (no pun) etc. Besides misinformation the book rids you of, the book supplies lots of facts and fun things like trivia and lingo. The book is not fluff at all though; it is full of substance. The book's quiz-orientation and insightful explanations will get you to a real true understanding of every aspect of eveything (the game, systems, edges, etc.)
