Frank Scoblete Gaming Guru - Page 62  Easy at the tables10 June 2014
Many slot players don’t want to play the table games because at first many of these games seem quite intimidating. Just one look at the craps layout is enough to make just about any new player run – it certainly had that effect on me when I first stepped up to the game. There are all these symbols and ...

Big wins and big losses3 June 2014
From Jimbo: OK, here is something I am interested in. I saw a guy win 100 thousand dollars last night at craps. That was the most I ever saw someone win. That got me to thinking about you guys who spend your entire lives in the casinos. How much have you seen players win at the games? How much have you seen ... (read more)
Advantage players and disadvantage dealers27 May 2014
From Eugene: Mr. Scoblete, I enjoy your articles and look forward to always reading your books. But there is one thing that I do not understand and maybe you can help me with that. Why are some writers, yourself included, so against just going to the casino to have fun? Do I have to have an edge at the games ... (read more)
The do's and don'ts of slot machines20 May 2014
DO select slots that have the highest return. How can you figure those out? Simple rules of thumb will help. Almost all inter-casino progressive slot machines such as Megabucks have the highest house edges, upwards of 17 percent which means an expectation of losing $17 for every $100 you wager. Next come intra-casino progressives that will often skimp in order to build up the jackpots. ... (read more)
The do's and don'ts of blackjack13 May 2014
[The advice offered here is not for card counters.] DO get a “basic strategy” card which tells you what to do with your hand against every dealer up card. You can bring this card to the table with you and you’ll play a very tight game with the casino. The house edge? It will be somewhere around a half percent or an expected loss of 50 cents per $100 wagered. ... (read more)
The do's and don'ts of baccarat6 May 2014
DO realize that there are four types of baccarat games now found in the casinos -- plus variations that individual casinos might add. The first is the high-roller room “big table” baccarat of James Bond, European nobility and Asian high rollers. The other two are mini-baccarat and midi-baccarat. There’s also a fourth -- the no-commission mini-baccarat. ... (read more)
The do's and don'ts of craps29 April 2014
[The advice here is for craps players playing a random game and not for dice controllers.] DO shoot the dice when it is your turn. This is the rare casino game where the casino gives you the dice and says, “OK, try to beat us.” So try to beat them! DON’T fall for erroneous gambling concepts pushed by many Internet dice ploppies such as trend betting. ... (read more)
The do's and don'ts of roulette22 April 2014
DO know ahead of time how much money you are giving yourself to play with during your session. This is called a “session stake.” DON’T lose more than your session stake in any one session. Money management is the key to keeping your losses in check. DO get credit at the casinos so that you do not have to carry wads of money around with you. ... (read more)
Match play methods and the 5-Count15 April 2014
FROM DAVE: One casino was giving us coupons for table game play. They were the same amount ($10, $15, or $20 value). There was no restriction on only using one at a time. We would use them on roulette. We put one on red and one on black. We would also put a nickel bet split across 0 and 00. This way we would always get some money back on our coupons. ... (read more)
I do this and that and that and this and then I add, etc.8 April 2014
FROM ROGER: I'd like to thank you for showing me a world I didn't know existed. For the first time I knew what I was doing, by reading your books, when I stepped up to the table. I had the best run of my life, so far. My best was 31 before the 7. I couldn't have done it without your influence and help. ... (read more)
