- INTRODUCTION
-
- The best strategy for winning is PREPARATION! This involves
- trying out different strategies and seeing which ones work for
- you. The mini version of CASINO PLANNER includes strategies that
- cover a wide range of capabilities of the software. The mini
- version, however, will not allow you to modify these strategies
- (i.e. change bet amounts or bet types under the "Make-A-Bet"
- dialog). Most other features are not disabled.
-
- For example, you can change the Money Management numbers under
- the StrategyMaster menu. This will allow you to "fine-tune" the
- mini strategies. Most of these strategies have Money Management
- numbers that will result in a slightly better than 50% WinRating.
- This gives you a good starting point for Money Management. In
- the Money Management dialog, try changing the win goal, loss
- limit and time limit. You can also change parameters under the
- options menu such as "Number of session" to be run by
- StrategyMaster. This will allow you to control the the time it
- takes to run StrategyMaster and the accuracy of the results.
-
- Run StrategyMaster and look at the results in the "Overall
- results" display. You will see vital information about the
- strategy you've just run such as the Fundamental Five, Highs
- and Lows, Averages and Totals.
-
- (Remember, strategies provided in this mini are just a SAMPLE of
- the capabilities of CASINO PLANNER. To unleash the full power of
- CASINO PLANNER you need the registered version.)
-
- ================================================================
- The following is a brief description of strategies included with
- the mini. By changing the Money Management numbers, you can get
- familiar with "fine-tuning" a strategy to try and get the
- Fundamental Five results that you are looking for.
-
- ALLBETS.WC1
-
- This strategy shows all the bets active at the same time! It's
- not a practical strategy but it's fun to watch. Under the options
- menu, select "General". You can adjust the animation settings.
- Activate the check box "Single step through the results", set
- slide control "Roll results" to 1.0, and Between roll" to 1. Go
- back to the table display and click the Auto Roll button.
- Notice, just like the real casino, losing bets are collect first,
- then winning bets are paid off and the new bets are made. Also,
- there are different effects for these actions. Press the Stop
- button to disable Auto Roll.
-
- BOTH0002.WC1
-
- This is an interesting strategy because it is betting both the
- Pass and Don't Pass bets at the same time. This is a strategy for
- the "Don't" player. The problem with betting Don't Pass alone
- is 7 on the comeout roll. By making a Pass bet also, you are
- protecting the Don't Pass bet from the dreaded 7 on the comeout.
- This is known as a hedge bet. Therefore, on the comeout roll only
- the 12 will lose. Once the point is established, double free odds
- is made on the Don't Pass bet where the 7 is working for you.
- There are alot of variations that can be made with this type of
- strategy. For example, once the point is established, you can use
- the free odds to protect (or hedge) Place bets such as Place 6
- and Place 8. The registered version has many more examples.
-
- COME0004.WC1
-
- This strategy uses the basic Pass Line bet. If a good point
- number IS NOT established (i.e. 4 or 10) then a one Come bet is
- made to try and get a better point number. Here you can see the
- versatility of using Come bets. Notice that both the Pass and
- Come bets have double free odds.
-
- FIELD001.WC1
-
- This strategy uses the famous Martingale method. Martingale is
- based on the premise that a bet will eventually win. Therefore,
- by doubling a bet when it loses means the loses will eventually
- be recouped. The problem with this method is the table bet limit
- not to mention that huge bankroll is needed to play. The
- FIELD001.WC1 strategy is a variation of Martingale. After the
- bet reaches $160, the strategy stops chasing the "win" and
- returns back to the initial bet and Martingale starts over.
-
- FIELD002.WC1
-
- This strategy is similar to the FIELD001.WC1 with one exception.
- Instead of returning back to initial bet at $160, simply remain
- at $160 until the bet wins and then return back to initial bet.
-
- Note: FIELD001.WC1 and FIELD002.WC1 are simple examples that
- demonstrate the Bet Sequencer feature of the software.
-
- FIELD006.WC1
-
- This strategy uses the free odds bet of the Don't Pass bet to
- protect the Field bet and Place bets on the point roll. Now,
- a roll of 7 on a point roll is not so devastating and now you
- are ready for a "hot" roll.
-
- HEDGE004.WC1
-
- This strategy is a hedge system that uses the Lay 10 bet to
- protect against the 7 while betting the four inside Place
- numbers.
-
- HEDGE014.WC1
-
- This strategy shows how to use both the Place and Buy bets
- together. It's better to Buy the 4 and 10 then to Place them.
- With the registered version, you can try Placing the 4 and 10
- and seeing the difference in performance of the two strategies.
-
- Pass0001.WC1
-
- This strategy is good for the player who is new to the game.
- Master the Pass line first before trying other advanced
- strategies.
-
- Place002.WC1
-
- This strategy takes advantage of the frequent rolls of 6 and 8.
- There are 10 ways to win with the 6 and 8, and there are 6 ways
- to lose. Almost a 2:1 chance of winning each time the dice are
- rolled. (With the registered version, try the Martingale system
- with this strategy and see what kind of results you get.)
-
- PLACE003.WC1
-
- This strategy shows how easy it is to use the Bet Sequencer to
- "press" Place bets when they are winning.
-
- ===============================================
-
- In conclusion, it is important to understand that CASINO PLANNER
- is an application (i.e. tool) to be used in preparing a winning
- trip to the casino. You can easily lose alot of money
- experimenting at the casino. BE PREPARED first. Once at the
- casino, you will have some great ideas on new betting strategies
- but don't try them out at the casino. Wait until you get home and
- try your "what if" scenarios on your home personal computer with
- CASINO PLANNER. If you like the results, you can use your new
- strategy(s) on your next trip.
-
- You MUST try many different strategies to find the one that what
- works for you. Every player is different and there is no ONE
- strategy that is best for everyone.
