Dom is a genius. When he explains all of the physics behind the mechanics of playing the game of craps, it makes all the sense in the world. Outstanding stuff!

Last year I was in Vegas, my return flight got canceled, so I had to stay another night in Vegas. I tried to find a cheap room, ended up staying at Sahara Casino hotel. I went to the craps table that night, after about 15 minutes of playing a guy showed up. He had a dice control out of this world !! He didn't throw 7 for about 1 hour. He made like $20k, I made $8k, all people made thousands of dollars at that table. It was crazy !!!

I took a dice class in 2002 in Vegas and Dom was one of the instructors. Glad to see he is still looking well.

Great interview with Dominic LoRiggio! His views on dice got me started. My best roll betting on a FireBet was 5 Points ( total of 11 points that were not different). I started with $22 in hand at the start of my roll. I had $10 Pass, $5 FireBet, $5 Field, and $1Pass - $1 FireBet on the Dealers. 90 minutes later I hit the 5th FireBet at 3:45 AM. I made less than $1K. After watching this Video - I would have made $20K+. Thanks you guys.

Lots if respect for Dom. Taken a few of his classes over the years. It works!

Interesting guest! Thanks for being the kind of channel that goes a bit deeper into gambling and sharing how players try to win.

I've been following this method for several years and can say you don't win all the time, but, I've had some serious rolls. One night a man at the table was a Don't player and the first hour or so was terrible - 7 every 3 or 4 rolls, sometimes 2 rolls and this jerk kept howling "I'm winning and you're not" and kept getting loud whenever someone was trying to setup, like a shill trying to keep you off balance. It was a packed table, so took time to move the dice back around to me and it usually takes 3 or 4 hands before I get the feel, so finally it's my 4th hand that session and I zoned in on it - 56 rolls later - crushed all 6 numbers over and over. The don't bettor kept saying its nothing but luck while is bankroll dwindled to nothing while the rest of us were screaming and howling - hit the all-tall-small twice in the same hand and left a happy camper. The Dom is my craps hero - My seven out ratio runs about 8 to 10, but have pulled plenty of 25+ rolls. I'm a local Las Vegas guy retired and fly low and slow...

Love it! Love seeing the Dom in his element! I watched the original documentary on Beating Vegas back in the day. Great stuff!

Would like to thank the " Dom", it was the first time using the grip and tips he talked about in a video. I usually pass on being a shooter, but using his tips for the first time resulted in my longest throw ever!, ( about half an hour ). It felt great making some money, especially for the other players, the guy next to me kept fist bumping me after every roll, making point!, thanks again Dom

i can't believe i am older then Dominic. watching his you tube shows were a big help in for my self to enjoy craps play and win a lot. i had to learn to throw right handed, i found that my throws were straighter then throws left handed.

If it isn’t the Dice Dominator! I was waiting for this crossover! It’s important to note one of the core tenets of dice control: marginally reducing the amount of 7s that are rolled is mathematically enough to reduce and/or overcome the house advantage.

It’s like shooting free throws. If you go from 70% average to 85%, you’ll win tons more games. Same concept. Practice and incremental gains.

Great and informative video! You represented both sides of the Dice control controversy, but let him explain his techniques. Ignore the crazy people on here! This was a fantastic interview and your integrity is 100% intact! Thank you for the content

Excellent content on craps... I've just been watching vid after vid on Craps and this one is great

It’s like anything... You have to put in the work and most people just don’t.

I agree with the dominator, put in the time and you will improve. It took me four months to get the advantage and was coming home with $$ in my pockets and comps. now i go to Vegas three times a year and shoot okay but not like when i did five years ago...it was fun.

Speaking of dice control, there is a slot machine I play on that let's you control the spin during the bonus. Normally you click a button and the RNG has already preselected something for you before the spin stops (usually small of course), but this particular slot machine you controlled the spinner. I won a cool $1000 from it.

Nice work getting The Dominator for this!

My second watch of this interview, valuable info imo. The alligator skin randomizes the dice and casinos do not care about the dice being set. That is the answer I have gotten when asking. My belief is the random dice rotation can be controlled with dice setting. I know some casinos do not allow dice setting and they must have a reason for it. Matt really broke down all aspects of craps, maybe a live craps video is in the future? Sorry to see there will no longer be an ACG book, I appreciate all the great deals I had found in your book through the years. I will download the app instead.

It seems to me nowadays most people who go to Casinos have some kinda system they imploy trying to beat the odds? It fun to try to increase you odds even on all games which affects your comps. Enjoyed the interview. Dom was convinced!

Awesome work guys. Interesting, educational and entertaining. Thank you!👍👏

Dom, when will you be in Vegas again!! I want to be there!!

Great interview. Really enjoyed hearing the background information on his life experiences in Black Jack and Craps. I enjoy going to casinos, as well, and find it very fun and entertaining. Thank you.

Dom wasn’t the only one highlighted on the history channel who didn’t cheat. They did episodes on Ken Uston and Tommy Hyland as well.

Doms the man. Great interview

This is perfectly legal and not cheating. The roller controls the dice and if he or she can roll without rolling a Seven frequently is a skill they developed. The Casinos have no right to complain or say it’s cheating because it’s not. It’s skill! But of course they are going to ban him because he beats them consistently. I think it makes them look petty and bad. If you have plenty of gamblers losing money regularly, why can’t they tolerate one winner? They don’t want anyone to win? Ever? Then no one should play either! He figured out how to win so they should be quiet. And take their losses. They have more than enough people losing regularly to cover one winner. I commend him! The Casinos should have more class and respect winners. Not ban them.

The first time I ever heard anything about dice control was when I saw the History Channel Breaking Vegas video about Dom (on KZfaq). CHANGED MY LIFE!! I have become a 10x better craps player since then. Months of study and over a year of daily practice for hours at a time have helped me develop an amazing throw that has shown me better results than any I've seen (in person) so far! Learning to shoot in a way that extends my rolls has not only improved my game, it has improved my focus and discipline in ALMOST every aspect of my life. It reminds me of when I played sports when I was younger. The desire to get better each day has relit the fires of ambition and determination in me that had previously reduced to smoldering embers. I'm so grateful that I can't across his video shortly after I started learning craps strategies and playing the game again. I will continue to improve until I make as much of an impact on the fraud community as he has. ✊🏾😎

I like rythmic rolling better. Can we bring that term back?

Dominic is a phenomenal dice player. I came across his information on dice thru Mr. Frank Scoblete's books. Nonetheless, I believe that the title of the "Greatest Dice Player" belongs to the "Captain", using his SuperSystem method of betting.

I'm a believer! I started to learn craps about 15 years ago after reading 3 or 4 books. I believe in setting because I just paid attention to all the successful shooters and noticed over time that most set the dice and pretty much did the same thing over snd over again. And like Dom said, didn't just chuck them down to the other end slamming into stacks of chips. It's just a better way to roll the dice and it has helped my game enormously. I didn't learn this from anyone, just my own observation over the years. But everything Dom said rang true! My tip, like Dom said, don't play the center bets! They will eat you up over time. Playing craps is the most fun you can have in a casino! And thank you to ACG for all the great videos!

You don't need to explain everything he says. He communicates very well and makes sense in everything he says and does not need an explanation.

I’m new to craps and I lost a few times and I really enjoy the game I watched the video and I practiced dice control and I set the dice after watching the video I had them tell me I had to pass the dice because apparently we were winning I never seen that happen until it happen to me granted I deff a new player

Ived. Been shooting dice for 20 yrsand i can shoot 12 and 3 and two easy cake walk

Dom is truely a great person first and shooter!

It always works except when it doesn’t work 😊

I have to admit when I see these dice control guys at the table I kind of chuckle. I wish they would practice how to shoot faster.

This was awesome guys. Really appreciate you. Color up ;)

learning the game of craps, had some good random rolling and tried this and have had some good success. seems like the rolls are a little longer and more frequent. with less point 7's .physically and mathematically it makes sense. great video!

For the ppl who don't get it it's not dice control. Instead it's seeking to successfully reduce the built in pure randomness element (Highly Profitable for the Casino. Seeing how they have the number 7 with the most possible combinations covered. Which has the highest odds of being rolled after the Comeout or the Point is established. If we are dealing in terms of pure randomn rolls or pure luck or chance. Which is the exact way the house wants dummies to roll the dice. For painfully obvious reasons. Now for example if one is using the hardway set with 5's on top & 3's facing the back wall 2's on the bottom & 4's facing you or the non shooting end opposite back wall. And you are using this same dice set up. Fingers in same location & pressure. Same landing zone practice & actual Casino table Experience. And you notice after a while a pattern of. Let's say hard 6 being the most frequent hardway number that you roll. Out of all the other hardways on the set or period. Or you notice a pattern of the 6 coming hard (3,3) about 50% of the time on average compared to the soft 6. You mean to tell me one can't come up with a strategy to capitalize off of this info or pattern? That's note not occurring randomly at all. Or for example one notices that most of the numbers being rolled (The current Pattern/Patterns.) With that hardway dice set up. Is the inside box numbers. With maybe 1 or a couple 4's & 10's being rolled. So one can't use this Non completely random info. To now mainly only bet the inside numbers? Once again it's not dice control it's successfully seeking to reduce the built in Completely random element. That is profitable to the house & not the players. AKA making bets not completely in the dark or BASED off completely random rolls & dice set ups. Ppl also always forget basic facts such as. If a human mind or minds thought it up. Then a human mind or minds can also find the cracks or human manmade flaws that are sure to exist within the manmade developed system. We talking about a imperfect being in regards to the developers of Casino craps & the Players. Yet folks talking like they playing against God or something. The house has already psychologically defeated you.

Good Video : First one I seen that mentions position a Must do for control . Stick Right for right handers is my spot :) I have been beating craps game for many years as once you have a Setting ability ( much harder to learn than just position ) you can develop various Betting Strategies for your abilities / Your correct that a role that just kisses the wall and drops with little bounce is key to controlling the outcome . Most good shooters don't bet big they have other involved for that

Hey Don I've had some luck throwing but have seen some that are great one-hour rolls plus twice.. I'd love to learn more

Electronic craps tables are casinos' latest tool to deter effective dice setting. Now the tabletops are hard sections of plastic with seams at different levels that result in bouncing dies going in every direction.

When playing craps on a cruise ship, does the fact that the ship is floating on the water and could cause the table to roll and therefor affect the dice/shooter?

I’m a craps players there’s card counting dice control but also edging cards rip 20 million$ of Phil Iveys money. It’s why golfers/ tennis players have great Hand eye coordination Dice control is significantly harder now, I can tell you personally I’ve seen the progression of how it is in last 8 yrs of gambling. Went from 2/3 hr rolls to 40/60 rolls to one hr rolls 20/40 rolls...borgata has the longest tables if ur. not over 6 ft it’s hard to control dice w. Long tables. This is a great interview and you start getting flagged on the tables is credibility. Or banned. U can request why uve been flagged when I got flagged in biloxi I was told u can also tell w. How pit bosses look at you dealers etc. ... I haven’t seen dominator roll when he was in NC I’d like to see. Emptying a fill 6 times depending where he’s playing is close to 3/5 mil. I’ve been in Patricias shoes. Bogata loves advertising the 4 hr roll but they only give out 30 k to the highest player r u kidding me... That 🤮

I'm ready for a class . Very interesting.

It's true if you can focus on the toss, you can extend your chances. If you could train on your own table you're one step ahead of the game.

what you really want to do is get those dice as close to back wall as low as possible without rebounding , the pit bosses will yell at you to hit the back wall. The back wall with that corrugated surface will put a random finish on roll of dice. You can also get away with flopping the dice short a few times, and get hard ways. Everyone will yell at table, and will riot if pit boss tries to take that roll away from you. They kept yelling "hit the back wall Jack". Someone called me and I said my name. It wasn't Jack. Pit boss said no wonder you aren't hitting the back wall, your name isn't Jack !

I enjoy craps but have had no luck. I think the most rolls I’ve made is 7 maybe 8. Usually it’s 4-5

Another great video gentleman

I had folks bet bets in my honor. thats kind of cool. Did a dollar yo once on a strong feeling and won that too.

Great interview

For the Non believers it like Pro basketball players on the free throw line.. You have your Shaquille O'Neals (which the casinos love) and then you have the Steph Currys (which will probably get you banned) You have to have talent and a lot of practice along with all the distractions in the Casino. Many hours of work and dedication is involved.

Good interview. Very interesting.

As usual, informative to the max!

I thoroughly enjoyed this one! I love me some craps 💩

How can you throw against the flat part of the back wall if the wall is really curved? I’ve noticed that every table I’ve seen at a casino has a curve in the back wall if shooting down the “runway” of the pass line. You would almost need to reach your arm out to the come area to have a perpendicular shot at the flat part of the back wall. But that would cause your body to be out of position. Any suggestions or tips?

Well, I went to the casino to prove it, first time it fail, second time I made $1,390. I shoot abt an hr a half. Find your spot. Check how he set up the dice. A guy made over 6k last night when I was shooting.

Hey Dom, I will state right from the outset that I am a skeptic of anyone claiming to be able to control the dice. Below I will offer some of my own thoughts regarding the concept of dice control. First I'd like you to explain what you mean when you talk about the 45 degree angle of your dice trajectory. You mention the apex of the arc but you do not clarify to which point you are joining the apex to form the 45 degree angle. It would appear that this would be another variable among the multitude of variables some of which I mention below which affect the outcome of the dice roll. You cannot duplicate the arc that your dice would follow on each roll; therefore, the position of your 45 degree angle would fluctuate. After watching a few videos about dice control, I have come to the conclusion that individuals who endorse dice control have no comprehension of the concept of randomness or refuse to acknowledge the significance of randomness. My comments on dice control hopefully will provide an understanding that dice control is not improbable but impossible. Some individuals stress the importance of maintaining the same axis on the dice when tossing them. It does not matter whether or not the same axis is maintained. There are so many other variables to consider in the toss. Here are just a few of the variables: -how much force is used -how high the dice are tossed -where the dice strike the table before contacting the back wall -where the dice strike the back wall -which pyramid on the alligator wall and which part of the pyramid each die strikes -where each die comes to rest -how many bounces and turns each die completes before coming to rest -how many chips the dice encounter -how firm/soft/bouncy is the table -etc. If a player is unable to control just one of these variables, he will be unable to practise dice control. In an attempt to convince others of the possibility of dice control, I would like to see just one proponent of dice control to create a video recorded in slow motion which documents the action of the dice on each toss i.e. record the results relating to all of the variables mentioned above. I have a suggestion. Use two different coloured dice, one red and one green. Let’s make it even easier. Assume that on each toss, the red always shows a five. Now the shooter simply has to control the green die and have it show any number other than a two to avoid the dreaded seven out. Conduct this experiment over many thousands of rolls to more closely simulate results due to probability and graph how often the seven appears. The sample size of the number of tosses must be sufficiently large to render the test reliable. If a sufficient number of rolls are made, then the seven should appear in the ratio of once every six rolls. If the ratio is much less than 1:6 a player may insist that he is controlling the dice. However, remember in the example the red die is already fixed (controlled) by setting it on the five. I have watched videos in which after the creator of the video sevens out, he tries to explain the seven by claiming he did something wrong on the toss. Truly moronic behaviour. Remember Patricia Demauro? In May 2009 the grandmother played at the Borgota in Atlantic City and rolled the dice 154 times (over four hours) to set the record for the longest roll. Was she controlling the dice? No!!! This was only her second time to shoot craps. There will be short rolls and there will be long rolls. No one can predict whether a roll will be short or long. Lady Luck is your friend and only she determines how successful/unsuccessful a player's roll will be. Dom, I would welcome a response from you or any other viewers in which you address my thoughts on controlling variables which affect the outcome of a roll of the dice.

DICE CONTROL QUESTION: My ultimate question regarding dice control/influencing is: • If the first & primary goal of the dice control throw is to maintain the same axis, Then what’s the difference between the dice going off axis after hitting the table/back wall verses shortly after leaving the shooter’s hand? Answer: There is no difference. It’s a random roll regardless of WHEN they go off axis. I believe dice control is theoretically possible, but there are too many variables for it to actually happen. The question above encapsulates why a shooter can’t have the dice flip, twist and turn in virtually countless ways after hitting the table, yet it’s somehow a controlled roll because the toss was on axis. Somehow the roll counts toward their “seven ratio” as if the dice were supposed to do all that. The dice have changed axis multiple times before coming to a rest, none of which was intended by the shooter.

Playing the side bets Make em all, all Small, and all Tall, I throw out a $5 and a $1 chip and bet $2 on each end one in the middle and a buck for the dealers on their end of choice. One night doing this, the next night, a dealer told me I had made them like $180 tip to share up, just by myself. Plus when you tip, the other players tip too. No one was tipping to speak of. My tipping broke the ice. More often than occasionally I can miss that back wall and they let it slide. lets just say, They seem to be a little more forgiving of infractions.

thank you for the interview

9:00 Spain actually 😬 The Los Pelayos are amazing 😆

Should you set your dice to 7 because they basically never land on what you set them to 🤔

Enjoyed the interview. Personally, I refer to it as dice influencing not controlling. Its just a different term and the outcome is the same. I enjoy the game and have fun thinking I am influencing the dice if I am or not.

I don’t know if it’s luck or not but it seems every time i throw the dice and they hit chips they fall on 7.

long as you don't roll sevens, then you are potentially winning. Unless you are a dark side player. I'm sure you can spin the dice to increase your chances (negate some of the house edge) but if it was easy, everyone would be doing it. Good interview with a professional gambler. To be honest, it is the same as any craps betting system in that it doesn't work 100% of the time.

He has the magic formula, but he'd rather sit around and talk to these two mopes!🤣That tells you everything you need to know.

The game moves so fast. Is there a quick way to "set dice" without it being noticed?

Has anyone seen the dice move in slow motion? They scramble around like eggs once they hit the table.

That History Channel program with Dominic was awesome; too bad he got banned.

Last vegas casinos won't let me stack the dice. 10,12,8, 4.. anymore also Wendover and Reno.

You have a guest like Dom so listen to him rather then try to talk about yourself Matt

He never addressed the house changing the alligator wall. He said it was math when in actuality it is just physics and will only last as long as they don't change the alligator wall.

Isn’t thrower required to throw from stick left to right wall. Across the Bobby of th stick man???

I'm still trying to understand the Come bet thing. I have done well playing just the inside numbers with a place bet (5,6,8,9) and playing the Pass Line and odds on the Pass bet I guess if you have a known statistical edge then you would do better to just play come bets or at least make your bank a little bit faster

Hahaha, talking about the vigorish... host cuts in with "...now that's short for the vig..." ....no, that's _long_ for the vig.

Some observations, 1. The combination facing inside is what is important to the dice set not really the top. If you’re attempting to avoid the 7, then place a 7 combination on the inside of the dice. 2. Technically, the best strategy is to bet the don’t side with full odds, because it has the lowest vig thus it takes the smallest dice influence to gain an advantage and will maximize that advantage. To play this strategy properly, one would set a seven combo on the inside on the come out roll, and once a number was established set a combo of that number inside. 3. Don’t overpay for an expensive course such as this gentleman’s expensive golden craps program. The principles of dice control are widely published for free or the price of a book on Amazon. If you want hands on feedback about your through see someone who offers to evaluate it for a low cost. Better yet, video tape your throw and evaluate it yourself based on the principles you study.

In their "Argument" of when the Casino identifies a card counter or set dice roller. What they did not mention is the Card counter gets noticed by the style of the betting. In order for them to make the system work they have to increase their bets when the count is in their favor, If you are betting $25 a hand for 2 hours it's not going to benefit you card counting. You have to increase your bet to say $100 or $200 to make it work. That's the big tell tale!

I like it. Thx

Controlling moving objects, that hit a table, back wall and roll, hit chips and each other. 😂 suckers born every minute I tell ya..

I agree. In the first 5 minutes of the interview, it looks like the interviewers eyes glaze over.

For those who can remember pre-corp Vegas controllers worked FOR the casinos and blew out everyone, front or back side.

Hi, Don you put back or forward spin?

Dom has skill & knowledge and is able to carry that out ... Learning a technique of throwing the dice is NOT cheating... To me cheating woul be using loaded dice etc. It's no different than using techniques & skills in Billiards. You learn techniques to have better control of your game. In both games you are playing against yourself because YOU are in control of the game when your rolling the Dice or shooting on a Pool table. Saying he's cheating is like saying someone who's using english on a q-ball is cheating lol

Not all dice controllers, control to have less 7s. Some of us play don't bass by ourselves at odd hours of the morning controlling to hit 7s after controlling the come out to not hit a 7 or 11.

How do you know the tables are all the same even if you control for every other variable

MIT blackjack team didn't cheat either

If dice control did not exist then there would be no diamond bumper on the end and a requirement to hit it

I enjoyed the video. I also think that you need to concentrate on your throw if you want to win at craps. Just don't chuck them to the far wall. Most of the "Fire bet" and "ATS bets" I've seen and won on have been with consistent and controlled shooters. Try to repeat what you do and change up if it doesn't work. I don't have time for a class but doing the things Dom talks about are a good start. Don't be a CHUCKER! Helped my game. And don't bet any of the "carnival" bets!!!

The dice have to hit the back wall, so it is pretty difficult to control the roll. I don't believe that the roll can be controlled.

Hi Dom, I really wish that people that want to become better at this by either betting or shooting to listen to your advice and take your training, I'll take your training next year hopely. I bought all your books and watched all your videos, and more importantly I can see the big different in my throw and making money in the casino.If I have listen just to you in here in youtube, I'd been where I'm today with my throwing and betting long time ago and even better if I have taking your lessons.....

Hello Steve. Hello Matt.

Data from Star Trek was the best dice roller ever.

GRET video, GREAT interview!!!

Extra income plus entertainment! Good advice.

You can actually lower the vig by placing 2 numbers for example place the 6 and 8 9 and 5 do the math vig is lower

I love Dom but I think he's selling snake oil...just my opinion from a 15 year craps dealer.

Off topic question, i was wondering if the odds for a natural four of a kind are different on dueces wild vs double double? I seem to get soooo many natural 4 of a kinds when i play dueces but hardly get them in double double.

A moving projectile that hits a wall and THEN lands. You can control all you want but when it hits that wall it's all out the window.

Rule to avoid making contact with the chips...... "When they hit the money the dice go funny (7 almost everytime)."
