    Bernie Smith

    I have decided to put my lifetime of knowledge and procedures regarding the game of dice and casino gambling along with opinions in the form of a book which might help others win more and lose less while playing dice. Born in Grand Rapids, Michigan Jan. 3 1932 on the lower west side, an area of immigrants, their descendants and people working hard to make a living and raise their children. Growing up as a child I took any job available to earn nickels and dimes. When I became aware as a child in grade school that the Grand Rapids Herald an, evening newspaper were sold on downtown street corners and papers boys could earn money as late night vendors I decided to give it a try. It was while waiting to pick up papers that I watched the more seasoned paperboys who had the best corners and made the most nickels and dimes play street corner dice. Being inquisitive and adventurous I thought I would do well to play the game with my nickels and dimes. This also gained favor with the older kids. I soon learned that street corner dice could earn as much as selling papers. Dice games took place before we went out on our paper routes for the night.
