A Probabilistic Study of Dice Control in Craps
Golden Arm: A Probabilistic Study of Dice Control in Craps Donald R. Smith Robert Scott III Abstract This paper calculates how much control a craps shooter must possess on dice outcomes to eliminate the house advantage. A golden arm is someone who has dice control (or a rhythm roller or dice influencer). There are various strategies for dice control in craps. We discuss several possibilities of dice control that would result in several different mathematical models of control. We do not assert whether dice control is possible or not (there is a lack of published evidence). However, after studying casino-legal methods described by dice-control advocates, we can see only one realistic mathematical model that describes the resulting possible dice control, that in which the four faces on a rotating (horizontal) axis are favored. This is the model that we analyze in this paper. Keywords: craps; dice; dice control; probability Donald R.

Craps players, more than other casino gamblers, may be the most susceptible to Langer’s (1975) illusion of control where they think they can control the outcome of a random game. -

Klassics for Kids: the Reception of Antiquity in Children's
Klassics for Kids: The Reception of Antiquity in Children’s Entertainment Many, if not most, of today’s children will not get their first exposure to the ancient world from an ancient source, or even from a myth compendium like the justly famous D’Aulaire’s Book of Greek Myths. Instead, they are more likely to meet people from Zeus to Caesar in their favorite picture book, Saturday morning cartoon, or PG rated movie. These sources are often what draws people to the Classics in the first place, and even more often provide the foundation of their understanding of the ancient world. Indeed, large numbers of students young and old are shocked to find that Ovid’s Hercules is not the same as the man they knew from Disney movies. Understanding antiquity’s status in the modern world therefore requires us to study the materials that craft the lens through which new generations will see it. This panel hopes to be a first step in that direction. Taking their cue from CAMWS’ recent thought provoking special panels on Classical Reception in Westerns, Sword and Sandal films, and other media, this panel will approach Greece and Rome’s role in children’s entertainment from both scholarly and pedagogical perspectives. The nature and significance of divergences from ancient sources will be discussed, as will strategies to maximize the benefits children’s television, books and films provide to the classroom while minimizing the potential problems they can cause. While this panel will be focused on children’s entertainment generally, the multiform nature of this entertainment provides a vantage point by which to combine multiple genres of reception analysis into a single panel. -
