Scobe's Quick Tip #51
Blackjack basic strategy was derived by a computer and should be followed at all times.
If you can memorize the basic strategy, that's great, but if you can't, you can usually purchase a small card in the casino gift shop that will have a "generic" strategy on it.
Bring that card to the table and use it. The house has about a one-half percent edge on you if you do!

Scobe's Quick Tip #52
A money-management rule-of-thumb for craps players is to have 10 times the amount of their bet for a session stake.
So if you are going to be up on three numbers with $15 on each when all your numbers are working, then you should have $150 for a stake for that session.
