Frank Scoblete Gaming Guru - Page 61  Slots, snits and nitwits19 August 2014
FROM MARK: I just heard this one: "If in Las Vegas, play the slots at 11 at night because they have to meet a minimum payout each day." FRANK RESPONDS: Tell the person who told you this piece of information that there is a bridge that connects Brooklyn to Manhattan that is for sale cheap. But it must be bought between the hours of 2 a.m. ... (read more)
5-Count wagering12 August 2014
FROM DOUG: I enjoy your articles, insights and analysis on craps and I especially like your 5-Count method. It is only the past year or so I could get to the Philly casinos a few times a month and I am a very small bettor at this point … $10 Pass Line and 1x odds. It seems that the 5-Count method works well much of time but not all. ... (read more)
Introducing the Annoyed Pig and dice setting5 August 2014
FROM BILL: I just finished re-reading "The Virgin Kiss." Again, thank you for the signed copy. I suspect you and I were very similar-type teachers, except I taught math. The “Weird World” section continues to confuse me but your book is very well written and entertaining. I have done a lot better in Vegas ... (read more)
Comps and hedges29 July 2014
FROM MARK: On a recent trip to Atlantic City, my friend and I usually play the same amount. At the craps table, his first bet is $90 each on 6 and 8 $50 each on 5 and 9 and he buys 4 and 10 for $25 each for a total of $330. My first bet is also $90 each on 6 and 8; with $35 each on the 5 and 9 and $10 each on the Hard 6 and 8 for $270. ... (read more)
Pro blackjack player? Do casinos want winners?22 July 2014
FROM UNMEN: One of the things you should have included in your “Don’t, Don’t” article is this: “You should not stand in back of someone playing a slot machine and act so impatiently to get the machine. Don’t bug the player.” FRANK RESPONDS: Absolutely! FROM JACQUELINE: I just read one of your articles and can relate to losing and winning. ... (read more)
The employees make the casinos15 July 2014
I am going to preach in this column. I figure after 25 years of writing, I deserve a day on the soapbox. I think if casino dealers, hosts and other employees are excellent; if they give professional, courteous and friendly service; if the dealers make you enjoy playing at their tables, or going to their ...

The high and the mighty8 July 2014
I receive some letters and/or e-mails almost every day and most are decent ones asking questions, giving opinions or saying they like my books and articles (those letters I like the best!). But sometimes I get angry letters or deranged letters from writers who should be sedated. Here is one: Dear Mr. ... (read more)
Dice control machines1 July 2014
Here is an interesting concept. Could a machine be built that would allow it to prove either that dice control exists or to disprove the whole notion? The machine would have to set the dice and throw the dice the same way each time to see if it could reduce the appearance of the seven or increase the appearance of certain specific numbers. ...

Do you have to play the Pass Line?24 June 2014
FROM BOB F: I used to play craps and was always playing the pass line with every shooter. My question is do players have to play either pass line or don't pass when a new roll starts, or can he or she jump into the game after the roll is starting? If you can do that, have you ever done any kind of study? ... (read more)
The not, not, not of table game play17 June 2014
People enjoy gambling. Many people enjoy gambling. Many types of people enjoy gambling. Indeed, there are around 54 million casino players in the United States alone. That is a huge number. With so many casino players – more players than viewers of America’s Got Talent – there are some that can be royal ... (read more)
