  • Pro Test© dice control metric: Learn about our new Pro Test© dice control test, the most accurate and powerful statistical test for dice control in the game of craps. Instead of needing many thousands of rolls for statistical certainty with tests like the SRR, Pro Test© can tell you in a few hundred rolls whether you are in fact influencing the dice.
  • Professional craps simulation: model every possible aspect of the game, includng rare but important aspects such as odds, payout rounding, commission bets, multiple shooters, extensible betting systems, known and 'blind' betting on shooters, lay bets, random table walkups/shooters, and much more. You can simulate games with SRR shooters, Pro Test© dice controllers, or even random shooters.
  • Easy to use wizards: no need to struggle with setting up complex simulations and tests. Smart Craps includes detailed wizards to guide you through both taking a Pro Test, and setting up simulations.
  • SRR Support (Seven-to-Rolls Ratio): Run craps simulations with different minimum and/or maximum SRR values. Find out what edge you have based on your SRR values.
  • Dice set optimizer: Using the new Pro Test© dice control metric, use our mathematical calculators to immediately determine the optimal dice set for any craps bets, including pass and don't pass. You'll be amazed to find out what the best dice sets are for you at different times in the game. Is the 3V set the best on a 4 point, or does a different dice set make you more money? Smart Craps answers these questions once and for all with mathematical precision. Prove exactly how much money you can make with your Pro Test© dice control skill!
  • Edge calculator: Using the dice influence indicated by your Pro Test results, Smart Craps determines your actual edge at the game for different bets! No simulations or guesses... this is pure mathematical precision, using detailed statistical models to represent your dice control.

  • Common Questions

    Is craps really a beatable game??!!

    Unlike blackjack and a few other casino games, craps cannot be beaten with mathematics and 'brain power' alone. In blackjack, we can learn an advanced card counting system to determine when we have a positive edge (based on the remaining cards in the shoe), and bet more accordingly. There is no similar strategy or system in craps: if you are using random rolls of the dice, you are bound to lose money in the long run, no matter what betting strategy or system you use. There are many scam books and resources that say you can make money simply by controlling your bets (in craps, blackjack, roulette, baccarat, etc.): this is not what Smart Craps is about!

    But… this does not mean the game of craps can't be beaten! The answer lies in dice control, the physical skill of manipulating the throws of the dice such that the average outcome is not random, and sufficiently biased to produce a positive player edge given a particular betting strategy.

    To get a positive player edge and win at craps (in the long run), you need to do three things:

    Test
    1. Learn the physical skill of dice control.
    2. Confirm, through mathematical tests of your rolls, that you have learned this skill and that you are rolling the dice and generating non-random results with statistical certainty.
    3. Determine what positive player edge, if any, your level of dice control skill yields given a specific betting/playing strategy in craps.

    Smart Craps is all about steps two and three. Since dice control is a physical skill, not a pure mental skill like card counting in blackjack, you will not be able to learn and master it from a book or software program alone. See our Craps and Dice Control Resource section below for more help on learning dice control.

    What are the computer requirements for the software?

    Smart Craps will work on any desktop computer running Windows 98 or higher (i.e. Windows 98 SE, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows XP, etc.). 15 megabytes of hard disk space is required. 800 by 600 screen resolution or higher is recommended. Smart Craps does not run on Windows CE handheld operating systems (or Palm OS), since the computing capacity of these small devices is very minimal.

    Reviews of Smart Craps

    The experts are talking about Smart Craps, and the news is good!

  • Frank Scoblete, #1 best-selling gaming author in America, says:
    'Dan Pronovost is a genius, there's no question about that. His new software SMART CRAPS is truly revolutionary. The concept of the software is to prove you have an edge and to show you how to increase that edge with 'cutting edge' dice sets that you may not have even thought about. What startled me was that my rolls were analyzed and while I had a good edge, the software recommended I change certain things about my dice sets at certain times. This increased my edge by quite a bit.'
  • Dominator, Golden Touch Craps Instructor/founder:
    'This is revolutionary! You can now with a small sample of throws be able to calculate your real advantage over the casinos when you have the dice! Knowing this advantage you then can decide what bets will return to you the greatest amount of winnings. Now the software will also tell you what set, and again this is revolutionary, to use to maximize your edge!'
  • Jerry 'Stickman' Stich: (click here for full software review):
    ' If you goal is to be a winner in the casino, Smart Craps is a great tool to help you succeed.'

    More comments from users...

    Charlie M.: 'I wanted to give you some very good feedback on Smart Craps. After passing [Pro Test] and letting the software suggest going to the 3V set for point 5,6,8,9 and the 2V for the 4 and 10 has been amazing. I would have likely never considered going to the 3V set as I’ve had good results with the hard-ways set.'

    Craps Tester

    Jim C.: 'I have purchased the roll recorder and love it.'

    A fantastic hands-on training course for learning dice control. Taught by leading gambling experts such as Frank Scoblete. Dice control cannot be learned simply by reading a book… that would be like learning to juggle without ever picking up the balls!
