Yes, most gaming readers would much rather read about another gambler's experiences than a how-to on supposedly beating the casino game. Too many authors have chosen to sensationalize so-called advantage plays like card counting and optimal vp play , as ways to make a living or make extra money, without truthfully acknowledging that the theory almost never approaches the reality--and for multiple reasons. All they want to do is make money selling books. Dan Paymar, easily the most boring writer out there, is probably the most shining, shameless example of this. He re-writes his original book every time sales dip below 20 copies a year, and advertises the revision as "something new that every winning vp player must have". Even extreme old age hasn't stopped him from this nonsense.
But at least Dan writes about the facts, as unachievable as they are. The dice influencing stuff is nothing more than a scam, unprovable to the point that it's creators have never had a problem taking other people's money in return for a silly theory that has no basis in math or anything else but fantasy. And that is the ONLY reason this was concocted--to put sales money into the pockets of unsuccessful gamblers.
