Frank Scoblete Gaming Guru - Page 68  The divided table, match play and cruise control16 April 2013
Hi Frank, I'm sending this e-mail concerning a term I heard in a Delaware casino. At a baccarat table, I heard some of the players yelling loudly for a certain card to come up from the shoe, in order for them to receive the winning hand. They kept calling out the word "Monkey,” "Monkey.” Could you tell me ... (read more)
Great old-time stories and casino paranoia9 April 2013
Dear Frank: In Vegas with new girlfriend. She started on a penny machine giving .25 per play. When done after 3 hrs up $200. Next day went back to machine and it was gone. Casino says they make adjustments at night -- hard to believe they watch penny machines? SE Dear SE: Coincidence. Winning $200 is not going to make the casino go to the trouble of removing a machine. ... (read more)
Odds, slots and calling off bets2 April 2013
Dear Frank: I know you said the dice have no memory but I have to ask you when you are on a hot roll and one of your dice leaves the table, do you ask for the same dice? RO Dear RO: Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I think following the culture of the game -- and asking for the same dice is part of that culture -- is probably correct. ... (read more)

The Grand Martingale might not be so grand12 March 2013
Hi Frank, I have a couple of questions. I am not sure if they have been asked before and I missed them but nonetheless, here they are. I was playing a slot machine (Griffin's Gate) and was winning quite often. At times, really big! I was doing so well that I actually made a couple of special trips just to play this machine. ...

Whirlwind craps and blackjack in Atlantic City5 March 2013
Hi Frank, I loved your article about your dad and wrote to tell you. You were so kind to respond. I can imagine a lot of people must have done the same. I'm a so-called wrong way bettor at craps. However, I start like that but after the first roll, with my money and odds on the don't pass, I then make two or three comes bets with odds. ... (read more)
Pass up the Captain's craps Supersystem26 February 2013
Dear Frank: I was playing craps in wheeling W.V. where there was a gentleman playing who was a local (the dealers called him by name). He was playing craps and on the come-out roll he placed a pass line bet and a don't-pass bet. Once the point was established he would pick one of the bets up and place it as odds bet on the other. ... (read more)
Back and forth on Triple Double19 February 2013
Dear Frank: I have a question I hope you can answer. If one is playing a multi-game video poker machine, are the cards you draw the exact same for every game? In other words, if I was playing Jacks or Better and was dealt a royal flush, had I been playing Deuces Wild, would I have drawn those same cards. ... (read more)
