Dice Setters Bankroll?

I highly respect Standford Wong in the field of 21 because his claims are based on mathematical rigour. But selling a $199 book on dice setting based on 500 rolls, surely your're joking Mr. Wong! I stumbled upon a dice setting website a while back and was intrigued, but then I found out that one of the authors was Jerry L. Paterson and dismissed it as nonsence. Paterson claims that card counting doesn't work and believes in Card-Clumping. But nevertheless I will look further into dice setting. By the way what would be the minimum bankroll required for a dice setter?

The 500 rolls was a challenge made to dubious green chippers. Given the opportunity to made a bet with a percieved 2:1 advantage, many could not resist. Stanford had spent several months practicing and trusted his throwing ability was sufficient to overcome the odds.

The moral of the story is: if Stanford Wong offers you a bet that is too good to believe, don't take it.

By the way what would be the minimum bankroll required for a dice setter?

That would depend heavily on your throwing ability (for EV) and betting patterns (for variance).

It's unfortunate that the name Patterson draws such bad press in the gambling world due to his "advanced" ideas on Blackjack. His ideas on dice setting are not erroneous, though. If you will look at Griffin's "Extra Stuff", he chronicles a dice setter whom he calls Sal. Being able to control one die allowed him a whopping 67% advantage.
Dice-setting does work but the problem is that it isn't global. It doesn't work to the same degree or extent on every table. Tables have their own personalities. It is up to the shooter to adapt to the prevailing table disposition if he wants to succeed. Plus the fact that some irate pit crews are not averse to turning up the heat if they become suspicious about your shooting abilities. The best remedy is to limit your play in any one casino to no more than one hour to escape detection. Play the paper route scheme.
How much should your bankroll be? I would hazard a guess and say that if you are highly competent, $10,000 should be more than adequate. Always manage your playing and betting with discretion. Obviously the greater your edge, the less fluctuation in your playing stake you can expect.
