When you are rolling the dice for your come out roll , you at that moment have a 2 to 1 advantage over the house with 8 ways to win and only 4 ways to lose. Once you have established the point that advantage is gone and the house now has the advantage The dice will tell the tale There are 11 numbers on the dice as we all know There are 36 combinations of those 11 numbers When you establish a point the casino in their unbound generosity will take 1 of the 11 numbers the 7 and give you the other 10 to play of the 36 combinations they keep 6 and give you the other 30 so the house keeps 1 number with 6 combinations and gives the player 10 numbers with 30 combinations and still the unsuspecting player will throw away 20 of those combinations retaining only 10 of the 20 and bet only the 6 and 8 and wonder why the game is so hard to beat
Bet all the Box numbers for $5- $6, with a $5 Hard 6/8, & if ya fu**k up, & toss a short hand, or PSO.....you WALK!!! Any time that you " Walk" after a losing hand, it's not considered a loss, because you'll return later , & shoot the Casino's dicks in the dirt. 50 plus years of experience has taught the Talented Dice Influencer NOT to wager more than the table minimum. Why make more money making larger wagers, & tossing less numbers for a HUGE profit when ya can bet table minimum, & roll 20 numbers, & make less money? Lol Say what?....You normally toss 10-20 roll hands with a TON of repraters, so it's not necessary to make large wagers with SAID skill? The way in which you toss the dice produces a lot of repeaters? Lol
Betting Across is the most fun and is certainly the most profitable when you are on a big roll. I tend to "take" after the first hit and then press after each additional hit on that number. I Always bet the 6 and 8 , but do not Always bet across the entire board. On times where I only have the 6/8 and odds on my point I will add the other numbers after my first point or so. The 6 and 8 have the highest probability And the lowest house edge. They need to always be bet especially using the 3V set. But I can not condone betting across the board every single roll especially when table conditions are not ideal. The House edge is simply too high to overcome on a consistent basis. I would say I bet 6/8 and odds on the point - 65% Bet Across the board - 35 % If the point is 6 or 8 I will usually buy the 5/6/8/9. After 1-2 points or a few hits on the numbers I will spread across the board from there. DOuble Tap dave
No question. Only problem is the cart follows the horse, not the other way around. I see many players kill it on all across on a big or long roll. I would agree. I typically try and have the 6-8 covered either with a combination of pass/come and or place bets. 3 numbers working....max. Doesn't always work that way but I like having 1.52% and 1.41% covered. While I've seen all across do marvelously well....as a regular, consistent play (I'm talking 2-3-4 times a week player)....those guys are getting crushed. Guy flying into Vegas for a weekend once every 4 months wants to go with it...have at it. It's basically action on close to every roll. Might catch a rush. As a consistent, regular play. I can only say what I witness for the most part....which is ATM runs for players. Just too many bets at risk to the most common result. 7. Not sure I've ever seen a craps lesson recommend all across. Super majority recommend 3 numbers in play with pass come and place bets here and there. 4.00 and 6.67 is getting up there.
Neverquit Although tabletop's intent here was to ridicule and be insulting he was pretty NEARLY RIGHT . If he were to EVER play he would be well served to use this strategy or something similar. The quote above is pretty close to my first downstroke / first bet. Again fairly accurate. I don't bet on other players and I WILL NOT stand at the table bleeding money betting on 10 to 12 other players waiting for the dice to come back around . Tabletop would be better served if HE TOO would adopt this policy into his betting strategies. With only a $5 loss on 10 other players adds up and makes it even more difficult to win with the added burden of recouping those unnecessary losses. This statement also made to ridicule also has a ring of truth. By walking with your $42 loss rather than your $42 plus an additional $100 or more lost on other players makes getting even much much easier and a hell of a lot quicker. Another statement made with the intent to demean but if applied in the proper manner could result in larger wins rather than larger losses. Being a trend player I have found it to be very profitable to take FULL ADVANTAGE of the trends. As an example I can place $5 on the 9 and by my strategy on the 4th hit I will have $108 while TT and other such players would be racking a total of $28. Betting THEIR strategy to come out with $105 instead of the $108 they would have to risk $15 six times while I am risking $5 once. . What this comes out to is they would , in the long run , be risking $90 to win $105 while I am risking $5 to win $108 . For some reason TT and others feel their way is better. This is where TT and others allow their thinking to become so convoluted / wonky and one of the main reason why so many of them have played years / decades unable to win. They just do not understand the value of a , "FORCE MULTIPLIER" / "DUPLICATION". TT and others will stand at a table and watch someone have a roll with more than the expected 6 and still swear up and down that it is not possible. It is a very confined world they live in . One has to wonder why such people even BOTHER TO PLAY but they do.
A fact that should be kept in mind when hitching a horse to the buggy but has nothing to do with craps. In craps we must think ahead. I have seen this also which would indicate that the killed player had to be absolutely clueless how to bet the big rolls. A bit of effort to learn some sensible betting strategies might be in order. The only reason for a person to LOSE ON A LONG ROLL is playing the , "WRONG GAME" / improper betting strategy. Wrong game . Playing to lose less is definitely the way to meet your goal the majority of the time. players who play to lose less will most of the time LOSE less. Craps is a , "RISK & REWARD GAME" It is damned difficult to win more by risking less. A great many players find it difficult to win because they never have enough on the table working for them to do much good.
How many craps lessons have you had?? Have you had any that weren't free? You win more money by winning more money not by losing less.
The right game is directed by betting what the dice are giving you , betting the numbers that your throw produces. A rule for the right game is to have enough money on the table to do some good. Playing the right game is playing by results not by the math. Playing to win more not playing to lose less.
A little earlier I was reading some old posts from back in 2011 Some guy says , "You don't need to get anybody to teach you how to win at craps , you can teach yourself by practicing" Like many people , he was wrong on both counts 1) He sets out to teach himself , the question begged here is , "How the hell can you expect to learn something from someone who knows nothing about the subject material 2) You cannot practice anything you don't know how to do therefore practicing to learn anything is an EXERCISE IN FUTILITY second only to trying to teach yourself or learning thru trial & error Over the years as a golf professional I saw many golfers who were absolute hackers who would not take lessons because the pro charged for their time , so rather than cough up a few bucks they solicited lessons from their friends (also hackers) Not only did they see no improvement but things deteriorated even further Not only did they retain , ALL OF THEIR OWN BAD HABITS , now they added a few of their friend's / the other hacker's to boot If you want to LEARN A SKILL find someone who has already DEVELOPED THE SKILL and get them to teach you This will save you much , "TIME , EFFORT , ENERGY , AGGRAVATION" and of course money in the form of unnecessary LOSSES Having competed in 4 sports as a professional I find this attitude that learning to win is either a bad thing , unnecessary or impossible Those who choose not TO LEARN are normally stuck in a situation where improvement becomes an impossible task . Simply stated with the absence of skill there is nothing TO practice consequently practicing to improve is in itself an EXERCISE IN FUTILITY that many will be saddled with for the remainder of their life or until such time as the bankroll is gone and they quit altogether The attrition rate in craps by the way is quite high
There’s really no way to certify that the person you “find” has any skill. There’s no way to certify the person you “find” even wins more than he loses unless he provides some documentation (W2G or such) There’s no records or ranking to investigate as in poker, golf, tennis, etc. There’s no craps professional teaching organization that could even certify an individual. Any teacher at this craft basically self certifies himself. All well and fine....but hardly a basis to use as “someone who has already developed the skill”. In the end....there is no way to know or check if YOU have the skill, any skill.
Nothing in craps is guaranteed , Playing across guarantees only one thing and that is that you have all the point numbers covered Simply put you have all 24 combinations of the point numbers covered rather than the 10 combinations that some prefer which gives a person more opportunity to win He has those 24 combinations working against the 12 the house has in their favor . As apposed to the 6 and 8 bettors 10 combinations In other words he doesn't take the 24 available combinations and give 14 of those combinations back to the house to be used against him Put another way The across player has 24 combinations working for him against 12 the house has working in their favor The 6 & 8 player has 10 combinations working against 26 the house has This is a portion of the , "PLAYERS MATH" players need , in an , "EFFORT TO WIN"
Well then by gawd let's just start such an association. Have some training programs , set up a standard by which all instructors in the association should be required to go by in order to maintain their certification. Have re certification on a regularly controlled basis to maintain a quality control standard. I think I will pursue that idea , what would be a good name for such an association. ??
Many consider giving up any 2 to 1 advantage rolls in craps sure ain't the right play. Which are you playing???
Nonsense. The highest of the high SRR's by the best of the best DIs can't garnish enough edge to warrant across betting unless it involves an early steep regression. Your build as you go with your random toss tis why you play only at home with zip at risk. You my man know your limitations and are playing the right game for your ability; home table.
