To open and read the Sample Chapter or my Ebook, you need Adobe Reader. Don't worry, it's free and easy to get!
1. Go to the Adobe Reader Download website.
2. Find the button or link that says "Download Adobe Reader." (It should be easy to find.) Click on that button or link.
3. If a pop-up window (a.k.a. "dialog box") appears asking you to Run or Save the file, click Run.
4. Follow the prompts, if any, and the program should load on your computer automatically.
5. If a pop-up window appears asking you to Restart your computer, then Restart your computer.
6. Adobe Reader should now be installed on your computer.
To open the sample chapter file, simply use Windows Explorer and navigate to the file (i.e., it's located wherever you saved it when you
downloaded it), and then double-click on the filename. (Sorry MAC users, I don't know anything about MAC computers.) If you don't know where
you saved the file when you downloaded it, don't panic! Here's what you need to do:
1. In the Taskbar at the bottom of your screen, click on the Start button in the lower-left corner of your screen.
2. Scroll up to Search and then select For Files or Folders.
3. In the box labelled Search for Files or Folders Named, enter the characters *.pdf (that's an asterisk, then a period, and then the letters pdf).
4. In the box labelled Look In, ensure the C: drive is selected (assuming you saved the file to your C: hard-disk drive).
5. Click on the Search Now button.
6. Your computer searches for all files that have the pdf file extension that are located on your C: hard-disk drive.
7. When you see the sample chapter file appear in the Search Results, click the Stop Search button to stop searching.
8. In the Search Results, note the Folder location of the sample chapter file. Now that you know the file location, the next time you want to open
the file, simply use Windows Explorer and navigate go to that folder/file location, and then double-click on the filename. When you're in
Windows Explorer, double-clicking on the filename prompts your computer to automatically open the file using Adobe Reader.
Now that the free Adobe Reader is installed on your computer, whenever you double-click on any file that's formatted in PDF (i.e., it has the "pdf"
file extension, such as filename.pdf), your computer will automatically use Adobe Reader to open it. Without Adobe Reader, your computer
won't be able to open the file.
If you have questions or problems either downloading the free Adobe Reader or opening the sample chapter (which is in Adobe PDF file
format), simply email me and I'll try to help. My email is:
"PDF" stands for Portable Document Format. Using a PDF file for my Ebook or sample chapter is the safest file format to use because it's a
fairly safe bet that, if you have Adobe Reader, your computer will be able to open the file and you'll be able to read the text and graphics. PDF
files appear exactly the same no matter what computer you open them with. Also, PDF files are compressed, so the file size isn't as big as
some other file types, such as Microsoft Word. Unlike many other programs, Adobe Reader is free, so most people have it on their computers.
You ask, "Why is it free...how does Adobe make money?" Adobe offers many other products for sale. The Adobe Reader is just the minimum
capability available. For example, with only the Reader, you can't convert another file format, such as a Word document, into PDF format without
a PDF-convert capability, which Adobe sells. They make enough money selling those other capabilities. They give the Reader away for free to
entice you to buy those other capabilities. If you have only the Reader, the only thing you can do is open, read, and print Adobe files. And to
read my sample chapter and Ebook, that's all the capability you need.

Tip of the Week: Are the Craps Buy bet and Craps Lay bet considered good or bad bets? The Buy bet (and its cousin, the
Lay) may be considered "good" or "bad" depending on whether you pay the vig up front or after a win. Let's look at Buying the 4 or 10
when playing casino craps. The house advantage is a reasonable 1.64% if you pay the vig after a win, but jumps to an unreasonable
4.76% if you pay it up front. Note that, although Buying the 4 or 10 with an up-front vig has a 4.76% house advantage, it's still better
than Placing the 4 or 10, which has a 6.67% house advantage.
Suppose we Buy the 4 for $100. For Buy bets, we must pay a 5% tax, or vigorish, for the privilege of getting true odds. Suppose we
have to pay the vig up front, which means we pay the 5% vig at the time we make the bet. So, you drop a $100 chip in the Come box
and tell the dealer, "Buy the four, please." The dealer responds, "Drop me another nickel for the vig." You then drop a $5 chip as
payment to get true odds. Suppose the shooter rolls a 7-out on the next roll. You lose your $100 Buy bet, so your total loss for that
bet is $105 (i.e., $100 for the bet and $5 for the up-front vig).
Now, suppose we Buy the 4 for $100 but we don't have to pay the vig unless we win. So, you drop a $100 chip and tell the dealer to
Buy the 4. The shooter then rolls a 7-out and you lose your Buy bet. Since you didn't win, you don't have to pay a vig, which means
your total loss for this bet is $100. If the shooter rolls a 4 before a 7, your Buy bet wins and the dealer pays you $200 (i.e., 2:1 true
odds), but then asks you to drop a $5 chip for the 5% vig.
It's clear that paying the vig up front greatly increases the house advantage when playing craps. Therefore, I suggest that, if you're in a
town with several casinos, find one that requires the vig after a win. Personally, if I have a choice of where to play craps and a casino
makes me pay the vig up front, I immediately turn around, walk out, and go to the casino next door. But if that casino is the only
game in town, you must suck it up and accept the fact that they're screwing you to the max. That's why it's so important to learn how
to play craps in reality.
