This article will be published in the new book by Sharpshooter and Jerry Patterson: Winning Dice Control Techniques – Shooting Craps from the Zone. To review more articles from thisChris Pawlicki (AKA Sharpshooter) has an engineering background which he has put to good use in his dice control research. He and Jerry Patterson created the 'dice control revolution' with the development of the first dice control course in 1996. He published his own book, How to Control the Dice in 2002, and launched Sharpshootercraps.com in 2003. Chris's website is www.sharpshootercraps.com new book, visit Sharpshootercraps.com.

The Sharpshooter responds to a question regarding the 'all hardway' dice control set.

I have one very significant question which is not explained by your writing.
You say that the 'all hardway' is a beginners to intermediate set, and also that it does not create as many 7's as the 3-v.
However, the hardway set has 16 combinations (4 x 4) of 'on horizontal axis' faces, so.....if the dice transpose (don't pitch equally) it will yield four (4) 7's out of those 16 combinations, that is, 4/16, or 25% 7's.
The 3-v yields only two 7s out of those 16 combinations, that is, 2/16, or only 12 1/2% 7's.
So, even though your chart of rolls and yaws for the hardway set shows less 7's and less outside numbers than the 3-v, it appears to me that the 3-v is better if.....the dice stay on hozontal axis and don't roll or yaw at all.
Also, you say that you prefer to throw 3-v most of the time. I do too, and this is based on charting (recording every roll on a 3 x 5 card as i shoot.
So.....is 3-v best if and only if one can keep the rolling on axis, and if not, the hardway is best because overall it will throw less 7's?

• One site as an example that aims to teach dice control is goldentouchcraps.com Golden Touch Craps by Frank Scoblete (click here). Exactly what is “dice control?” It’s the notion that you can control the outcome of a dice roll to increase the likelihood of certain numbers appearing more or less often to reduce the house advantage.
• You can read about dice control, precision shooting, dice setting, different types of grips, throwing techniques to influence the outcome of a dice throw and maximize your chance of winning while.

Golden Touch Dice Control Revolution

The Golden Touch Dice Control Revolution

You are correct in your interpretation. When I talk about successfully reducing 6 degrees of freedom (or ranges of motion) down to 3 in the dice delivery (a combination of vertical and horizontal translation with end-over-end rotation, or 'pitching'), I'm talking about keeping the dice on a horizontal axis with no 'roll' or 'yaw.'

Additionally and also very importantly, the dice must also be synchronized. That is, they must pitch, or rotate horizontally at the same rate and side by side. The right die should be the mirror image of the left die. This includes parallel trajectories, alignments and spin rates (they should be doing the same things at the same time). Under these ideal and well-practiced circumstances, you are indeed, better served using the 3-V (for inside numbers) or the 2-V (outside numbers) dice sets.
If the dice roll or yaw just one face off and you are using the 3 or 2-V sets, you may be staring at a seven-out! The Hardway set gives you 100% protection if you are only 'one' face off in any rotational direction. You must be two faces off before you see sevens with the Hardway set.

Therefore, analyze your throw for that session, if the dice stay on axis, strike the table and maintain that axis before coming to rest, then you are better off with the V sets; any roll or yaw, and it now behooves you to switch over to the Hardway set for better all-round protection.

The 2-V Set is as powerful at avoiding the 7 as is the 3-V set (as far as different degrees of freedom are concerned), but the 3-V Set is more powerful at sniping out inside numbers (all primaries and several secondaries). These inside numbers have a higher frequency of occurrence and lower house edges than the outside numbers do. Those facts make the 3-V set (hands down) the most powerful set for someone who has mastered the Perfect Pitch Delivery System. I use the 3-V Set 80% of the time, the Hard Ways 10% and the 2-V Set 10% (sometimes when my point happens to a 4 or 10).

Learn how to be a Top Craps Shooter with Precision Shooting

Have you ever wanted to improve your odds of winning at the casinos? Do you feel that you don't throw the numbers you and your table needs to win big? IS your dice control as good as it could be? Let the Dominator help you achieve your goals.

The casinos will ALWAYS try and favor themselves in craps. Take a simple example. The 6 comes up five times for every six times a 7 comes up. The casino gets its edge on a 6 Place bet by paying $7 for every $6 wagered. For a $6 player, the house loses five bets (total loss: $35) but wins six bets (total win: $36). The house wins $1 for every 11 decisions on the 6.

But what if a player can learn how to play craps in a way that changes the game so that the 6 and 7 come up the same number of times, say, six times each? Now the casino loses $42 on the six times the 6 appears, but only wins $36 on the six times the 7 appears. Suddenly the dice controller is in the catbird seat. He has flipped the game in his favor big time!

Practice your Grip

“The most important thing to practice is your grip to become a great craps shooter. Practice your grip continuously, use a mirror to see if your grip is straight, put the dice down then pick them up again.” ~ Dominator

In this 2-minute video, Dominator explains how important it is to practice how you grip the dice. Learn to beat the casinos using physics and math and become an advantage gambler.

How to Practice Dice Control

“Dom’s advice about how long to practice is right on! You don’t want to get repetitive use syndrome; this could stop your shooting forever. Just getting a slight shoulder injury then practicing too long will injure your shooting arm and/or shoulder perhaps forever. Thank you Dominator.” ~ Randy Oh, YouTube

The Eight Physical Elements of Dice Control

Our dice control analysts have isolated eight distinct physical elements for controlled shooting; each one of which must be done with a high level of proficiency for the player to actually gain a real-world casino advantage. The eight elements of Dice Control are as follows:

Watch part 2 Watch part 3

1. Table position: Like a hitter in baseball, dice controllers must have their 'spot' and 'stance' for effective throwing. Where you stand is an individual matter but most dice control experts recommend learning only four positions so that, with practice, you can become proficient from any one of them.
2. Setting the dice: If a pitcher wants to throw a curve ball, he places the ball just so in his hand, giving him the best chance that the ball will do what he wants it to. The initial dice-set that a shooter uses will, if the throw is dead-on accurate, determine which numbers are most likely to appear.
3. Pick-up angle: They angle that you use to pick up the dice will determine whether they stay flat against each other, desirable, or tend to split, undesirable.
4. Grabbing the dice: Coming in with the proper angle will allow a shooter to grab the dice without the dice moving or slipping. Both dice sides must be given equal force or the dice will split.
5. Gripping the dice: Once you have the dice in your hand, how you grip them, the pressure you exert, how many fingers you utilize, will determine how much control you have over them.
6. Delivering the dice: How you utilize your fingers, wrist and arm to make a soft, perfectly pitched throw is similar to how a pitcher will use his fingers, wrist and arm to deliver a baseball.
7. Spin control: How fast the dice spin, how many revolutions they make before hitting the back wall, whether they are mirror images of each other or delayed mirror images will determine the effectiveness of the throw.
8. Controlling bounce: The harder and higher the dice bounce, the tougher it is to control the outcome. The softer they hit the back wall, the less influence the back wall has on the dice.
