It started when I was 5 years old, my baby sitter taught me and my older brother how to play draw poker. My dad enjoyed his Friday night poker game with the neighbors. When he hosted the game every other month I would stay up and watch them play until I couldn't keep my eyes open, falling asleep in my chair. I really enjoyed watching them.Just realizing as I write this bio, my first recollection of playing any form of craps was at the age of 7 or 8. My aunt introduced me to a game she called "society craps". This was played with a deck of cards with the aces and kings removed, dice and a whole bunch of pennies. These are fond memories from my youth.As I became a teen many of my friends had an interest in betting on the ponies and football. I was more interested in poker and blackjack. It was my interest in the later that got me to Las Vegas in 1975 where I was first introduced to casino craps. It was as if the dice had cast a spell on me because ever since that day my main focus, other than my family and career is craps.As a competitive person I not only learned everything I could but needed to figure out how to beat the game. It was a long journey of time and money. I finally figured out how to give myself the best chance of winning on a regular basis and I now offer it to you in my first book.view less
