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

  • When Puts Come to Shove

    If you’ve ever stood at the table with me for any length of time you’ve probably heard me say “Get those late bets in early, guys.” That’s because late bets – bets made after the dice have already been sent to the shooter – disrupt the flow of the...

  • Transition Moves

    The transition move is one of the most powerful weapons in the crapshooter’s arsenal. It is also one of the most difficult to master. Simply put, a transition move is your pre-planned strategy to ease your bets from one side of the line to the other, allowing you to...

  • The Confident Crapster

    You’ve seen it before. You’re standing at a choppy table, being ground down by the house when something magical happens. A new player steps up to the table and buys in. He stands tall, looks around, claps his hands and says, “Come on, guys. Let’s turn this table around.”...

  • You Must Have Gotten a Phone Call

    How many times have you heard the phrase, “You must’ve got a phone call” while standing at the craps table? Seems like I’ve heard it a million times. These days, more often than not it’s part of a dialog that goes something like this: Shooter: “Hopping the nines for...

  • Darkside Strategies of the Dead

    Okay, I’ll admit it.  I’m not above being inspired by shows like The Walking Dead.  But in this case – we’re not talking about the dead walking. We’re talking about the dead European mathematicians. Back in the heyday of roulette in Europe the greatest mathematicians of the day set...

  • Rules for Running a Pro Craps Team

    In developing the Craps Boot Camp Team Play seminars I do from time to time, I spent a lot of time considering what a professional craps team should look like. Having played a few team sessions in my life I have some insight into the situation. And the answer,...

  • An Offer I Couldn’t Refuse

    During the oil boom days in East Texas just about every town around here had a saloon, a gambling hall, and a whorehouse. The drillers, riggers, and roustabouts worked hard for their money and they played as hard as they worked. One city in particular, I won’t mention its...

  • Smart Field Play?

    Take a look at any crap table and see where the sage old right-way players put their money. One of the most popular bets you’ll see these guys toss out is $44 inside – that’s twelve dollars on the six and eight, and ten dollars each on the five...

  • Using “Psi” Power to Control the Dice

    The term psi comes from the 23rd letter of the Greek alphabet and is used as an informal abbreviation for “psychic phenomena.”  As such it covers all uses of the mind beyond the reach of accepted science. Psi-power should not be confused with ESP, which stands for “Extra Sensory...

  • Quick Setting the Dice for Fun and Profit

    Before I get too deep into this article I’ll ‘fess up and tell you I’m entirely too dependent on a roll tracking program developed by my buddy Maddog called BoneTracker.   BoneTracker did some wonderful things for me. First off, it simultaneously compared my EV on dozens of different...

  • The Murphey

    Murphy’s Law states ‘If anything can go wrong it will go wrong’. Its creator, U.S. Air Force Captain Ed Murphy, coined the phrase after a G-force stress measuring device he had installed on a chimpanzee for a rocket sled test failed to function – no doubt stressing the chimp...

  • Pacing your Play

    I often say that playing craps is like stepping onto a battlefield. It is you against the casino. Unless you are a skilled shooter, every wager on the layout has you at a disadvantage. The casino has unlimited ammunition in the form of its bankroll, while you are limited...

  • The Craps (Check) Between Your Ears

    It’s funny how players who would never consider hedging a five dollar pass line bet let higher table limits get between their ears. Put them in a ten dollar game and they start tossing out dollar craps checks. Raise the limits to twenty-five and you’ll see the three-way craps...

  • Turn Off the Tension – Turn On the Toss

    Tension is one of the biggest enemies of the precision shooter. Tense shooters grip the dice too tight and toss them too hard. Instead of smooth, fluid tosses their throws look hurried and jerky. How can you learn to toss like a pro? First, you have to understand where...

  • Risk vs. Reward

    Risk. We face it everyday. Risk from uninsured motorists. Risk from eating too much red meat. Risk when we jaywalk in Vegas. Everyone, at some gut level, makes choices about risk every day. For the most part we measure the amount of risk we take against the potential reward...

  • Zigging When You Should Have Zagged

    How many times have you heard someone at the craps table say “I zigged when I should have zagged.” I’ve said it many times myself – especially on a choppy table. It’s one of the reasons strategies that incorporate changing sides from the Do’s to the Don’ts – or...

  • Craps is Easy – Once You Get the Nerve to Play

    Let’s face it. Look around the typical craps table and you won’t find a lot of rocket scientists. The game pretty much plays to the lowest common denominator. You’ll see doctors standing next to drop-outs. CPA’s next to crack heads. Mechanics next to morons. Average Joe’s next to crack...
