Hi folks

In the last 6-12 months there is a marked increase in the amount of people putting Craps videos out, which is awesome. There is some great stuff being presented and some marginal stuff, but its obvious which is which.

Heavy you got some free publicity at Marc's channel called Full Press. He's used the Axis Power Craps dice image as one of his video thumbnail. Marc has slowly built up in my opinion one of the quality channels if not the best YouTube channel about Craps at the moment.

I'll put my full list of channels I follow on my blog.

Or if there is interest I will post here as well.

Well there you go. I generally don't watch the YouTube craps videos because I've found them to be of poor quality and many of them present information that I just don't agree with. Interesting bit on the dice, though. Thanks for posting it.

I'm with Heavy on this, yes there is much more information/videos now available on the internet. The problem is, discerning what is the good from the bad. A lot of misinformation out there.

Ah, the impatient finger strikes again. Double posting. A product of clicking on that "SUBMIT" button more than once. The forum runs a tad slow when posting due to the size of the data base and the number of members and guests on the forum at any given time. Just push "SUBMIT" one time, then be patient while the page refreshes. Sometimes it'll take five to ten seconds, but it will refresh. . .

I tried it on my table, simple shot to learn. Jaime.

The only thing in the video worth anything is him using the same set. Regardless of how you toss them by using the same set one tends to get repeating results. We use to call that rhythm rolling. If one uses the same set he could shoot them out his ass and the results would be the same, semi random.

And here I thought PVW was just emphasizing his first post. ;)

I completely agree, most of it is garbage.

I love how they'll explain their strategy in great detail, then roll a bunch of 7s LOL

Yeah, I did happen to come across his videos when they first came out. I remember he said something to the effect of how he liked when the dice rolled back a lot after hitting the back wall. I use to put his video on in the background when I practiced at home but eventually I had to stop; I was worried that some of his bad info would sub-consciously seep into my brain (and I'm not trying to be funny).

Him and about 4 other youtubers who have been posted videos tend to think "DI" is more about finding a magically dice set than it is about consistency.

As for the best? Far from it, IMO. I think koganinja, practicetable01 (1 video), even GTC, have better fundamentals in their videos.

I don't know why he had the APC dice as a thumbnail. When someone made a comment about it, his response was "Who's Heavy?".

Hey, I'm just a regular guy from a small town in East Texas. It just so happens I've been a good student of the game.

Best to ignore it. It's better to NOT give the craps virtuoso an audience.

You guys do what you want regarding the sanctuary forums. Personally, there's not enough disinfectant in the world to make it worth dipping a toe in there.

I've not been in any other craps forums. Found this one early and with info here and demeanour of those in it, didn't need to search further.

Of course if you put out information in any form (text, audio, video) there will be those that will judge you for it good and bad.

I see nothing wrong with any information that is put out there.

In the video examples it's good to see how other people approach the game.

It's up to the viewer to take away nuggets they find in that information and test it out for themselves. Sometimes it's an offhand comment or a small section of a video that will spark an idea to better your game.

I agree bad information can set you back but if you are in it for the long haul you'll be able to test that bad info into the do not use bucket.

There are several video channels now that I can't watch even at x1.5 or x2 speed because of the content and the low production level. But I still applaud them for putting it out there.

Had to include this classic.

By far the best (if only) ;)



For those not familiar with Star Trek - Data is an android that strives to be more human.

His ability to manipulate the dice and win big allows him to save the day. This episode is from 1989. Surprising how the time goes.

I am from the school of thought wherein if you have something good going and can roll very well...why make it public? Keep a low profile and make some money.

Orignally I made the videos for the fun of it like a hobby but you got me thinking about it now from a different direction.
