Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

just announced Giants get Saqoun Barkley back tonight, he can be a difference maker. Doesn't mean he will make one tonight

About a year into playing craps i changed from 2V to X6s mainly because of the ability to hit any number while keeping the dice on axis. Since i was playing on ATS tables it just seemed logical. About this same time i began to bet more on myself. Often i would toss all the box numbers with few repea...

IMHO, is you pretty much have to be a sports fan to bet sports. I would think being a fan would be critical or at least very beneficial to being successful. Sports had always been a big part of my life, playing and watching. Paying for the largest part of my college education but the last few years ...

whose on first, man im lost when it comes to sports betting

Yea, i agree about the ante. it seems so ridiculous to me i dont see how they justify it. I guess they dont have to. I really thought as some of the more northern parts of the state quit charging it, it would put pressure on the others to quit but it doenst look like it. I guess as long as they have...

On a $10 table I like to play them for $24 each for one hit, then regress to $12 each. Then you're in a power position to go up and out if a hand develops. I like that play, I might have to walk (18) before i run (24), but if 6s and 8s are rolling i think ill try it. Nice to get in the drivers seat...

Taking more or full odds on my toss. Especially on my 1st point. I can usually eek out the first one even on a bad night. I think it stems from when i first started playing on a limited bank roll and wanting to place money on the box numbers. Another play i think would help is to start my 6 & 8 ...

There is alot of good advice from all those who posted above. If you go at this game hard enough long enough it usually doesnt end well for the player. Stay with whats working. Since your up you might press a little more, not regress as fast when you feel like things are going well. Just be ready to...

The first time i saw the back wall laid was in REno. I guy scored on it twice in short succession. It got my attention. Its nice to have Heavy around to keep us straight. I get lay odds and lay amounts confused some in the heat of the battle. I havent played them enough to recall them quickly. The l...

i think H posted somewhere 41,31,25 for 194 bet with a 20 pass line pays 134 after vig. Not sure why the 25 on the 6 & 8 i think he was talking about the way someone played. What i have seen played a couple of times was 206 across, 41,31,31.

I have tossed one 10 roll ATS or "walked the dog" as my craps buddy coined it on a live game. Several in practice. I have tossed 2- 12 roll full hits and have been one away on 11 tosses but unable to complete. I have tossed a number of 5 roll halves that dont always turn into good hands. T...

The only surprising one in that list is $25 at Hard Rock.

HR was at 15 when i arrived on a Monday but went to 25 on Thursday in prep for the weekend. This was several months ago though.

I believe the use of horn bets on the comeout is to avoid working the extreme outside bets and hedging them with a lay bet or any 7. In Lord Vader's case, it's not being able to make that lay bet which is causing the shift to use a horn bet inste ad. yea, i was getting that part, what i wasnt consi...

I was leaning toward a $20 horn on the come-out and then talked myself into a $25 World. What am i missing? If you are using a horn rich set that you have confidence in why the one roll bet as opposed to just working the extremes? If you are the shooter the pass line makes the difference in money ri...

Normally i do not let other players influence how i bet my hand when i am tossing, at least until i have tossed at least once myself. It would also matter to me if i was with a group of known DIs or bought in at a table full of randies i didnt know. If i bought in on a table of 15(not likely) i woul...

Rarely do it when i am tossing. Not only can it bring unnecessary attention 22 mentioned it can also add some pressure on a shot that should normally allow a good relaxed toss. I do occasionally work individual single bets when the little voice tells me to usually on other shooters. I war gamed it i...

Parson, I think someone has hacked your account here. They're talking about regression. Is that word even in your vocabulary? :mrgreen: Funny, I havent had the opportunity to shoot with Parsons but i have a feeling he resembles that remark. So a hit at 200, then regress or move on to 360 will be th...

mainframe, I think most places are easing up or on the verge of doing so. I was in Biloxi a few weeks back. only one casino had plexi. none were really stringent on per side players all required mask but i think that is changing. No plexi in lake charles or Shreveport the same week. Some Oklahoma ca...

I dont like to hedge but sometimes i get skuuurd, which is different than scared. I dont have any hard and fast triggers to take down or hedge a lay like i do to make the lay in the first place. One scenario, i decide the hand is coming to an end, the shooter hits his point so i lay the 10 on the co...

Nice hand, crapless is a lot of fun when the extremes are popping. both 1-5 combos, so placed the six, then had a 1-4 five and placed the five. I use this place betting style alot if for some reason i havent bet across. It will occasionally draw a remark from the dealer "it pays better if you b...
