Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

Depends on the location. Some might have a minimum of $41 no 4. Others will happily book it for you.

You can use Bone Tracker, put the worksheets into Google and enter your rolls via your browser. Most of the BT functionality works in google sheets but a couple of the betting tabs that rely on excel macros do not. I don't know what the landscape of excel clones for mac/ipad looks like, but check th...

Interesting question dork. I've always been of the mindset that I buy in with cash. I've always wondered if the house records and/or treats buy ins differently for comp calculations and ratings if done with cash vs chips from a previous session.

I'll take the quality here over the quantity any time. I read every one of Heavy's posts on his board and toss them a like (which we all should do for the FB bean counters and algorithms) but then scan over the rest and occasionally jump in if I have something (hopefully) constructive to add. The ot...

I take the FB groups with a grain of salt. It truly is a world without filters and the complete gamut of people. I try to tread lightly. I completely understand the reasons the Heavy and Howard have a presence there and I'm really glad that it does seem to have the desired effect for them. They're b...

Wow. I completely misunderstood your question then.

If you're that concerned about the 7 on the comeout, why not just hop the reds to hedge your DP? $100 DP, hop the reds for $7 each I think will get you what you want. Not a great play though.

Are you talking about working the 4 bet on the comeout? Is the bet on a 4 a place or lay bet? I think you're talking about laying the 4 for $100 (+2 vig). Since you're talking about hedging, I'll assume you're proposing to lay the 4 for $100 (+$2). If the 7 rolls, you lose $150 net (-$200 DP, +50 la...

Oops! Make that 98 bucks. I cannot add, even on a good day. I remember that at one time, I could add, but that was so long ago, I cannot remember... Anyway, you can still make Heavy's 96 bet with two white chip change... Er, or...Is that four white...? Any body seen my marbles? Memo Yes, 2 hits on ...

Sounds like you're doing well ODC. Let's hear some of those stories in a couple of trip reports. I love reading our fellow DI's exploits in their live play, all the highlights and lowlights. They're fun reads for sure, but also educational in a lot of respects.

MP would take two hits. (96 bucks), Then regress to 66inside. Coincidentally, $96 makes a very nice "across" bet. $15 on every number. IMHO once you get to $96 across you TAKE the first hit, locking up at least $21 profit. From there you choose one or two DOMINANT (repeating) numbers and ...

Glad you found our little corner of the craps world. I wholeheartedly agree with you on all the great knowledge and wonderful people here.

But I have to say in Biloxi I mostly didn't run into problems going $30 6 and 8 down to $12 and they were fine with dropping $3 up to $42. I think the Heavy contingent has gotten to some of these dealers over time. One woman dealer at Harrah's was in late training and was a little confused some of ...

The better dealers will move on and come back to you if they don't understand the transaction. For example, the move from $18 to $42, usually the dealer will take all your money on that number and just put it in front of the box for them to do. If their not there, they will just count out how much ...

Yeah that $18 to $42 move gets them pretty much every time. They also get confused when I go from $24 to $42 on a 6 or 8 and ask for 2 reds in change. When the dealer stumbles through it, the payout is almost always 1 red and 5 white. In most cases, once I explain the moves to them, pay yourself $30...

22inside wrote, Though lately, I've been toying with unbalanced regressions on myself and select known shooters, with an extra unit on the number that hit. So $30 6 & 8 still. First hit, regress to $24 on the number that hit and $18 on the sister number, leaving $7 in exposure. I like this move...

Also toying with unbalanced regression on 4/10, when I'm betting even numbers on myself or other known shooters. Buy 4/10 for $20 each. First hit, hit number goes to $30, sister number to $15, leaving $5 in exposure. I could just take the hit number to $25 instead of $30, making myself whole. Whiche...

I like $30 6 & 8. First hit regress to $18 each, leaving $1 in exposure. Though lately, I've been toying with unbalanced regressions on myself and select known shooters, with an extra unit on the number that hit. So $30 6 & 8 still. First hit, regress to $24 on the number that hit and $18 on...

$30 5&9. One hits drop $11 tell dealer to reduce to $20@. Get three green chips change! That's a Biloxi only move, right? You're sitting at a profit of $4 after the regression if my math is correct. The same move outside of Biloxi would be to drop $13 for 3 greens in return. Lock up a $2 profit.

Hi 22Inside, Have the adjustments to your pressing schedule been much more favorable for you? Yes they have. The combination of regression and establishing dominant numbers are evening out my shorter hands, as I'm getting back to break even quicker but also feel like I'm in a position to take bette...
