Give yourself a reasonable chance of winning at the table. Richard Orlyn, the fresh new voice in the game, exposes the myths and debunks the superstitions propounded by the rank-and-file authors in this genre. No nonsense, no fictional anecdotes, just the simple but profound lessons of two-dice probability theory presented for the novice and seasoned player alike. This quick read includes distinctive betting and money management skills along with the author's trademarked TABLE TIME PLUS strategy for prevailing at the table.

And I don't even gamble... June 10, 2008 I read this as an intellectual exercise, since I don't gamble. I know that decisions are affected by the wager, so I may have taken the easy way out, but I tell you this: I never really grasped the "big picture" about this game until I read this book. What a phenomenal thing it was for me to have my eyes opened like that! And for people who do gamble, why wouldn't they want to get all the momentum they could? This book is finishing school for craps, as far as I can tell. And check the reviews here -- they're all 5-stars. Good going, Mr. Orlyn!

This was an amazing book!! I can now go to Vegas and feel like I know what I am doing. Thank you Mr. Orlyn for addressing this fun game at a level that anyone can understand and enjoy playing. I will definitely look you up and share my wealth when I attain it playing Craps! Do you have any other expertise that you would like to share.....? I recommend this book to anyone that wants to have FUN in Vegas! If I can learn it anyone can. Cheers!
Fantastic book! May 18, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This book was straight forward and easy to understand. I am a casual and often frustrated player of the game of craps. After reading "No-Nonsense Craps" I feel I can now relax and really enjoy the game.
No more mystery May 5, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The novice can now get a lot smarter without learning the hard way at the table. Experienced craps players can be a bit condescending ... not so with Mr. Orlyn. His writing style is precisely informative, without pretense, and laced with good-natured humor. The next time I am near a table, I will play.
No-Nonsense Craps is a Winner May 2, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Finally, I get it! Mr. Orlyn's excellent book cuts through the Crap mystique with straight talk. He obviously took great pains to eliminate excess and superfluous information that often clutter and complicate "How-To" books. No-Nonsense Craps is a good read, with clear and precise building blocks. The reader will enjoy Mr. Orlyn's direct and effective writing style while learning his "no stress" strategy at the table. One word of advice, don't skip chapters. Even the long time player will glean new insight with his spot-on analysis. I highly recommend No-Nonsense Craps; the book is a real winner!
