 So dated - It's hard to read. August 22, 2004

I am relatively new to craps. I can play but don't really understand the nuance of the game. Saw the reviews and bought it.
I find John's banter intolerable: "macho type dude, with muscles bigger than Dolly Pardon's trademarks," "Does Sophia Loren look like a boy?". I'm sure it a generational thing. It's kind of like having Buddy Love teach you trigonometry.
Anyway, some good information that's just really hard to get to. I'm looking for something modern and less dramatic.

John Patrick knows very little about the game of craps from a mathematical point of view. His book is a lot of hot air about discipline and walking away when you're ahead but you coul dbe ahead after the first bet! There's a lot of sound and fury in this book but it signifies you should look elsewhere for craps guidance!

I have been buying Crap books, since the 1980's. This is the most information that I have seen on any book of Craps. This is a must book for advance players. Some of the people he writes about, remind you of yourself. He hits close to home. I have used this to update, my own personal system. I was a winner of craps before this book. The Hedge information,The break down of all bets, money management,is very valuable. Great Price.

The basic technique on the Place bet and use of hedge ie covering bets paid for this book several times several times over(no thats no repeat typo. Some books I lend..others I do not...this is a must have reference book for serious craps players.

The lingo in the book is very out of date, I mean the guy refers to Dolly and Lonnie as the current babes! However, the money management and discipline information in this book are invaluable to any gambler. You also get the impression that Mr. Patrick is a "good guy" and that counts alot with me. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to enhance their craps strategy.
