Some are plain and boring, weird and funny, and others are downright irritating. Which style is yours? written by William Enslen Jr Is it legitimate or a scam? I suspect that the notion of dice control is a big-money industry (perhaps, multi-million dollars annually). But is it real or just an elaborate hoax to swindle you out of your hard-earned money? The answer seems so obvious. written by William Enslen Jr Part 2 of my article about the load of crap that some websites feed you has even sillier claims than those in Part 1. They're hilarious. written by William Enslen Jr As these excerpts show, the Internet is crammed full of ridiculous claims designed for one thing--to get your money. Don't be a sucker. Armed with facts instead of false hope, you'll be a strong weapon against the casino. written by William Enslen Jr In the gaming world, B.S. sells and reality doesn't.

I disagree--partially. written by William Enslen Jr If anyone says or writes that he has a consistently "winning" craps system, he's either lying to swindle you or too stupid to know better. No consistently winning craps system exists, has ever existed, or will ever exist. << previous page 1 2 next page>> |
