ABC's of Craps: a Book for Beginners

by Mike Exinger

Overview

Walk into any casino, and there is one section where the action is fast and furious. Players are whooping it up, and it sounds like one big party. You approach the area, and, squeezing through the crowd, you discover a long green felted table with a myriad of complex, confusing symbols. You hear voices, but while you can recognize the words, it seems they are in language you’ve never heard before – at least, you have no idea what they mean: “Eighter from Decatur,” “Six and one and you’re all done,” “It’s Little Joe,” and “Seven's a bruiser, the front line's a loser.”

Does baby need a new pair of shoes? Of course, because you’re at a Craps Table, the most fun you can have in a casino.

So many people pass this game by because of the perceived complexity and the unusual jargon, but Craps is really a very simple game to learn, and better yet – you can actually make some decent money by playing smart. And that’s what this book is all about.

Yes, Craps is a game of chance, but the edge the casino has on many of the bets you’ll want to make are very small. A hot streak or two, and you can make some serious “spondulicks” Y’know, “Benjamins…Moolah.” Money.

The ABC’s of Craps is designed for the beginning gambler who wants to learn how to play this classic casino game, and play it well.

About the Author

Mike Exinger calls himself a 21st Century Renaissance man...just another way of saying he’s had a lot of jobs and has moved a lot. Born in Michigan during the Truman administration, he started out as a teen serving ice cream and ended his work-life likewise (although by then he owned the place). In between he's been a Banker, Radio DJ, University Professor, and Jewelry Artist and had 15 different addresses in several states and towns. In his spare time (?) he’s been a Freelance Writer for more than 30 years. Like Maynard G. Krebs, work is now a four-letter work and he lives the retired life with his wife and an enlarged prostate in Warren, OR.

Writing credits include the five books/eBooks you see here, plus 100+ articles in publications such as Casino, Casino Executive, Dalton’s Blackjack Review, Double Down, Thoroughbred Times, American Turf Monthly, HorsePlayer and Card Player. He also publishes occasional brain-droppings at his blog, mexinger.blogspot.com
