How I Beat The Casinos

I know right away that there are those that are going to read the title of this work and immediately go into their tirades about how I don't know what I am talking about, how I am trying to scam people, and how they are quite certain that there is no way to beat the casinos. Do you know who those people are? I do. They are, simply put, the losers. I am not saying that in a personal sense. I mean it literally. They are the recreational or habitual gamblers. And you must consider this; although they are convinced that there is no way to beat the casinos, they continue to play! Like I said, losers.

I play because I know there is a way to stay ahead of the casinos. Now that makes much more sense, doesn't it? And for those that argue that there is no way to win, in a sense, they are right. There is no way for them to win. They will continue on with their losing habits and methods and go right on losing, and then tell me that I can't win. Well I don't use those same methods and losing behaviors that would cause me to be among the losers. So I let them carry on and I laugh at them. I laugh because I don't' have to really convince anyone of anything. I know what I know and those that choose to listen to me will also become winners. Those that do not listen, and those that ridicule me and argue against my methods and ideas, will continue to be losers. With that said, let me give you a little background...

My father was a gambler for as long as I can remember. He was what I would call a habitual gambler. He bet on everything; horses, cards, dice, sports, anything and everything. Of course, he also lost at everything. That is what a habitual gambler does. I want to add here, if just to ease my conscience, that he was a good man, just a bad gambler. Growing up in that environment and with that exposure to the gambling world, it was easy for me to see what made a losing gambler, although it wouldn't be till much later in life that I actually took note of what I already knew. As luck would have it, our family moved to Las Vegas from upstate New York in 1973. (It is ironic that I use the word "luck" here.) Not a good place for my father to be living! Well, of course, I learned a lot about all of the casino games. My father was more than happy to show me how to play all of them, and he was very good at them, so I learned a lot. And I learned how to lose. I also noticed that most of the gamblers around me were also losing. It didn't take me too long to realize that I was not going to do well in that town if I continued to gamble, so I decided instead to go into the casino business. I started out as a lowly craps dealer and learned to deal some of the other games along the way, blackjack and roulette.

It didn't take me too long to move up in the ranks and become a boxman, floorman, pit boss, and eventually assistant shift manager. So, what I saw, for 10 years running, was that people gambled and lost money. I saw it every day. Of course by this time, I knew all about the house advantage, about all of the odds in all of the games, and I became an expert in casino gambling. It got to where I could spot a card counter as soon as they walked in the place. I was good. What I did differently than most of my co-workers in the pit is that I not only watched, but I studied. I studied what makes a loser and what makes a winner. I have to say though that I saw very few winners. And I also noticed that the winners were never as conspicuous as the losers. That actually became a very interesting point. The winners were rarely around long enough for you to really notice them and they were quiet and deliberate. I have to say that in all of my time in the pit, I saw maybe ten of this rare breed of gambler, the winner. They are tough to spot. Most people would not even notice them.

Needless to say, I started keeping mental notes of what I was seeing and started to formulate what would become my "Betting For Profit" method. I did not want to call it "a system" because systems simply do not work. In my time in the casinos, I probably saw every system there is, in every game. There were the roulette players with the little note pads, scribbling down numbers furiously after every roll, the card counters in blackjack, the dice-setters in craps. Do you know what we did when we saw a system player? We laughed! Casinos love system players. Let me say this right now and get it over with. Anyone that tries to convince you that they have a winning system in any of the games is scamming you, or is simply delusional. I see, especially on the internet, numerous "systems" to beat roulette, blackjack, craps, etc... They are all useless. Even card counting in blackjack is highly overrated. I know, I have tried it and it is not only overrated but a lot of work! And the advantages of card counting are completely nullified by frequent shuffling, which is exactly how we used to deal with them. Take it from one who truly knows from experience, and that has the knowledge to make the call, "Systems do not work, period." They are for the losers.

So how then, do I get off telling you that I beat the casinos? Well, remember, I studied what makes a winner, as well as a loser. What I came to notice was that there were certain behavioral patterns peculiar to each of these groups. There were issues concerning discipline, control, and emotion. Poker players will know what I am talking about. At least the good poker players will. It wasn't too long before I had to try out what I now knew with some real live play. In a matter of weeks, I was way ahead of the game. I mostly played blackjack but I occasionally wandered over to the craps table. I even tried a few frivolous plays at roulette. I wanted to see if my methods would work there, and they did. In the years that followed, I began to realize a steady income from casino gambling. Now mind you, I am not claiming that I never had a losing day. If you gamble, you have losing days. I noticed that there is one ad on the internet that claims a system that never has a losing day. Buyer beware! Impossible! I would never make that claim. What my method accomplished though, was to keep my losses at a minimum and my winnings at a maximum.

That is really simplifying, but in essence it is accurate. My running total at the end of every month was a positive one and showed profit. That is what I mean when I say I beat the casinos. I had learned the secrets. I could count on that income every month from gambling. I can't reveal too much here because of the fact that I now sell my "Betting For Profit" on the internet. It is a small e-book full of my secrets, methods, and ideas to make every reader a winner. The casinos do not want you to know this stuff! You see, the casinos depend on, and capitalize on the play of the recreational and habitual gambler. I teach you how to not be one of those players. The greed and other negative human emotions involved with that kind of play is what the casinos depend on. That is what makes losers. The casinos gladly ply you with free alcohol. I will reveal here that staying away from alcohol while you are gambling to win is one of my "Seven Cardinal Rules Of Gambling" within my "Betting For Profit" e-book. Everything in the casino is designed for the casino to win your money. My method is designed for the player to win. I can't make it any clearer than that.

One last word, and that word is "LUCK." Regardless of what anyone says or thinks, luck will always play a part in gambling. The player, and to some extent, the casino, will always be affected by luck. Luck is what caused me to have winning and losing days. It was luck that caused our shift on graveyard at the Pioneer Club to sometimes have a losing night. Of course, that was a rarity but it happened. My method uses luck, both good and bad, to keep you a winner. I am not saying that you should not be a skillful player. It is of vast importance to be a good, smart, educated player, no matter what game you are playing. Know the rules and have a good knowledge of basic strategy. And then hope that luck is with you. It will be sometimes, and sometimes not. I teach you how to capitalize on those winning streaks and to recognize when luck is not with you. And I show you what to do in each case. If you follow my methods, you will be a winner. For those of you that will argue these points, I say, "Go ahead." You will remain losers with the loser's mentality. But of course, you will all continue to play.

Yes, I beat the casinos and still continue to do so, when I play. I don't play much anymore though. I find that it is much easier, and quieter, to sell my methods instead. I don't much care for casinos. I guess I just spent too much time in them. Besides, it is just as rewarding for me to hear all of the success stories from my very satisfied readers. You can read some of their testimonials on my Website.

I know that with the advent of on-line casinos there are more people gambling now than ever before. My methods are totally adaptable to the on-line casinos. You just won't have to deal with the noise and a surly dealer, but you also will not have the pretty cocktail waitress bringing you drinks (no alcohol!). There are both advantages and disadvantages to on-line play, as opposed to live play. But rest assured my methods are just as valid on-line. Use the same principles and ideas in "Betting For Profit" and you will stay ahead. Good luck to all!
