Biloxi After Dark

Axis Power Craps Seminar

March 21 – 23, 2025, Biloxi, MS
 

Make your plans NOW to join us as we get B.A.D. playing Biloxi After Dark at the next Axis Power Craps Seminar in Biloxi, Mississippi.  Biloxi is the home of some of our favorite casinos – with every casino in the market offering from 10X to 20X odds.  You’ll find plenty of great tables to shoot on – from tourist favorites to the games the locals love – including a Stadium Craps game with a $3 minimum bet if that’s your game, so come on down.  Biloxi is also home of easy comps, friendly dealers, and some of the freshest seafood on the planet.  Springtime temps range from low 70’s in the afternoons to the 50’s at night, so if you’re ready to escape the frozen North for a long weekend, what’s not to love?

This weekend we’ll be offering a limited number of Basic and Advanced BoneTracker training sessions on Friday.  The Basic BoneTracker sessions will be limited to a total of eight students.  They will cover the fundamentals of BoneTracker.  How to set up the program, enter your rolls, and a review of the various tabs and how to interpret the data on them.  Armed with this info, the player should be able to correctly track his own rolls in BoneTracker and perform basic analysis of his results, determining his Foundation Frequencies, discovering any flaws in his grip or toss from this information, and reverse engineering his dice sets into those that will work best with his specific toss.  The cost of this session is just $199 per person.  The sessions will be held on Friday morning.  Four students will attend per session with the first session beginning at 9AM and wrapping up at 10:20AM.  The second session will begin at 10:30AM and wrapping up at 11:50AM.  If practical, students should bring their laptops to the session.  To register for this session via Zelle send your payment of $199 to axispowercraps@gmail.com.  Be sure to follow up all Zelle payments with an email to the same address explaining what you are signing up for, giving your name, mailing address, and cell phone number for future contact.  If you do not have a copy of BoneTracker 5.8 you will be provided one at that time.

Friday afternoon we will be offering one Advanced BoneTracker Training Session to a maximum of four students.  This session will consist of a personalized individual analysis of each attendee’s personal roll file along with recommendations for future practice and play based on those results.  In order to take this class, the student MUST SUBMIT a book of 560 to 720 of their latest good rolls (every roll that stays on the practice table counts) to the coaching staff 30 days prior to the class.  The cut-off date for submitting rolls is Wednesday, February 19th.   This gives the coaches time to analyze the students results and prepare the analysis and report for the class.  This is a very detailed analysis and requires many hours to complete.  The cost of the analysis is $399 per person.  To register for this session via Zelle send your payment of $399 to axispowercraps@gmail.com.  Be sure to follow up all Zelle payments with an email to the same address explaining what you are signing up for, giving your name, mailing address, and cell phone number for future contact.  If you do not have a copy of BoneTracker 5.8 you will be provided one at that time.

On Friday night, we kick things off with the “official” Meet and Greet get together.  Everyone is welcome to bring a spouse, friend, or significant other. This is “no host” event, so everyone is on their own for food and beverages. We’ll give you a heads up on the location in advance, so if you get in a little play that afternoon – odds are you’ll have some comps to cover your drinks.  This is an opportunity for players and coaches to get acquainted or reacquainted, swap a few war stories, and perhaps make plans for dinner, drinks, or an evening at the tables. Yes, we may get “B.A.D.”  If you hit the tables, enjoy yourselves, play conservatively but don’t be out too late, because we’ll have a full day of training slated for Saturday.

Saturday’s class is all about Dice Control/Influence and will be at a local casino dealer school, beginning at 9AM and running through approximately 5:30PM.  First time students – you will receive a copy of the original Axis Power Craps Seminar on video prior to the live seminar and you are expected to watch this video as pre-class homework.  There is material on the video that will not be covered in class unless you ask specific questions about it.  However, this material IS important and every student should watch and understand it prior to attending the class.  Why?  Because there’s more to being a winning player than just shooting the dice! 

The class begins with about a 45-minute discussion on a few Craps Basics.  Then we get right down to working on our tosses.  This will be a full day of Dice Control Training, focusing on the mechanics of the grip and toss, including set, grip, aim, focus, breath control, visualization, landing zone, execution, and follow through. There will be roughly a 45-minute break for lunch around mid-day at a local sandwich shop a block down the street from the school. After lunch we will continue to work on our tosses.  We’ll teach you how to read the dice and how they interact with the layout – and how to interpret that interaction and make adjustments to your grip and toss to correct any errors. We’ll practice shooting from alternate positions – Stick Left, Stick Right, and Straight Out. And, given time, we will play a mock session using casino chips and incorporate some Basic DI Betting Strategies into your play. All that and more on Day One.

Saturday night you’re on your own to hook up with your fellow students and coaches for live play, dinner, entertainment, or just to hang out and chill.  Yeah, it’s get B.A.D. time.  But again, I don’t recommend staying out too late. Typically, Saturday nights are what I call “amateur nights” at the casino.  Too many drunks and rookies and randies at the tables.  It’s always better to get to bed early, then get up early (while it’s still dark) and play a “coffee run” session under better conditions.  Up at 4AM.  Play from 4:30 until 6:30.  Grab a comp for breakfast.  Be at the dealer school around 8:45 with an extra few Benjamins in the bankroll.

Sunday morning’s Advanced Betting Strategy Session will begin at 9AM and will wrap up no later than 1PM. We’ll start out the morning with Right-Side betting strategies. We’ll cover reading a table, presses, power presses, regressions, etc., then move on to Hybrid strategies. From there we’ll transition right into Dark Side Plays and how to implement them into your game and use them as a springboard back to the right side when the heat turns back on. Just about every strategy we discuss will have a specific live-session example associated with it that we can discuss – and examples where the play in question has worked far beyond expectations (or failed miserably). This session will definitely put some tools in your craps tool box.

We will wrap up the session at 1PM with plans to reconvene at one of the local casinos later in the afternoon for live play with your Axis Power Craps coaches.  Location and exact time to be announced at the seminar itself. Play is planned to last roughly three hours, depending on table conditions.  At the end of the live sessions the seminar weekend will “officially” be over. However, don’t forget – Axis Power Craps is the only outfit that offers a free Hookup Day called Hangover Monday. 

Hangover Monday has nothing to do with drinking.  It’s that Monday after the seminar weekend when the coaches and many of the students like to “hang over” for another day to get in some additional play before heading home. So, we book our rooms for Monday with a Tuesday departure so we can have the casino to ourselves for the day. Typically, there are fewer players, more open spots at the tables, often lower limits, and the pressure to perform is off so frequently the hands are longer and the money won is bigger. Best of all, it doesn’t cost you a dime more to hang over and hook up  with us (unless you’re having to pay extra for the room or you drop a few bucks at the tables) so why not? I will definitely be there.  I will probably be out there being B.A.D. Monday night as well.

2025 Axis Power Craps Golden Ticket

It’s that time of year when we start looking forward to the New Year and making plans for our craps journey in the future.  For many, that journey includes training with a professional craps coach who can help you take your game to the next level and beyond.  And the funny thing about students who sign on to take a class with Axis Power Craps is that most of them sign on for a second and sometimes a third, fourth, or even more classes.  Why?  Well, the reasons are many.  Here are some of the most common ones:

“I learn something new at every class I take, and the more I learn the more I earn at the tables.” 

“Signing on for multiple classes gives me the opportunity to take classes in Las Vegas, Biloxi, and even on Craps Cruises for much less than I’d pay if I signed up for the classes individually – and it gives me a reason to travel to all of those additional markets to play.” 

“One of my favorite take-aways from Heavy’s seminars are the friends I’ve made along the ways.  I’m talking life-long friends who share a common interest in craps – guys and gals who understand the game and how to play.  There’s not a finer bunch of players to be found.” 

If you think you might be interested in signing on for multiple classes with us over the next couple of years, we offer a special Golden Ticket designed with you in mind.  The Golden Ticket entitles you to THREE full Axis Power Craps Seminars over the next two years.  Schedule them at your convenience.  Seminars include a full day of Dice Control Training on Saturday and a half-day of Advanced Betting Training on Sunday PLUS live in-casino play with the coach(s) on Sunday afternoon.  First Time Students – you’ll also receive a copy of Heavy’s Original Axis Power Craps Seminar Video on USB Flash Drive as well as all of the seminar manuals and handouts from his seminars – also on USB Flash Drive.  The video and handouts alone are a $189 value.

First Time Axis Power Craps Students – your Golden Ticket covers a total of three full weekend seminars.  Regular price for these classes would be a total of $3150.  But your Golden Ticket price is just $2550, a savings of $600 over our regular prices.  DD-214 Veterans and First Responders can take an additional $150 off that price and pay just $2400.   Sign up for your Golden Ticket NOW via PayPal at the following links:

Alumni Axis Power Craps Students – we have a Golden Ticket priced for you as well.  Three full alumni seminars run $2850.  You can sign on for the Golden Ticket and pre-pay three classes for $2250, saving you $600 over our regular prices.  DD-214 Veterans and First Responders can take an additional $150 off that price and pay just $2100.
