Dark Siders Ball

June 13th – 14th

Mini Darksiders Class at Heavy’s Place in Texas

Queue the Imperial March. The Dark Side is Strong at Casa Heavy. And since there’s only one Friday the 13th in 2025 and it happens to fall the weekend before we’ll be back in Biloxi the weekend of the 21st, I’m scaling back the Darksider’s Ball I’ve been planning for Friday the 13th this year, turning it into a one day mini-camp at Casa Heavy in East Texas near Tyler, with a half-day of live sessions in Shreveport-Bossier City, Louisiana the following day.

You read that right! This will be a Full Day Dark Side Class on Friday the 13th followed by a half-day of Live Casino Play at a Casino To Be Announced in Shreveport/Bossier on Saturday, the 14th.  Class size is strictly limited to Four players – and one of those slots has already been filled, so if you want one of the remaining three slots I recommend locking your slot up NOW.

The Class:

Friday 9:30AM – 5PM

Three hours of Dice Control Training – Focus on Setting Difficult Points and Sevening Out
Setting the Dice for Outside Numbers and Sevens
Gripping the Dice
Pre Shot Routine
Breathing and Relaxation
Visualization and Focus

Lunch provided by Heavy in-house

Dice control takes skill and practice. Casino Craps is still gambling—never play with money you can’t afford to lose.
