Confuses Say, but The Professor Says…
Discipline is not just an idea it is a way of life. You either have self-discipline or you don’t. When it comes to casino games, playing without discipline is like driving a car down Berthoud Pass without any brakes. One element to your advantage is self control. Playing under control takes discipline. If you are weak in discipline, it is something that you can practice and develop. Playing craps as an advantaged player means that you take every single bit of help into your game. Remember, it is many small twisted wires that make up the cables that hold the suspension of the Golden Gate Bridge.
