Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

When we were in Vegas for the last class, we played a few sessions with some acquaintances from the facebook craps groups that were also out in town that weekend. Some decent shooters, all students from the other place. But they were very big proponents of hedging whenever they could. Hedge the last...

Hell, I might even tag along on that trip to give it a whirl.

Speaking of dodo's, the Margaritaville will also go the way of the dodo in a couple of weeks. It's reverting back to the Flamingo brand. The chips are already gone and they're using Flamingo chips. Not sure if they'll even keep the table there. Shame.

I bet 2-2-2 on myself and other select shooters that I know. I set X6 on the comeout and toss out a $5 world and $1 ace-deuce. On each craps hit to knock off the outside ATS numbers, I press the world and ace-deuce bets a unit. In Vegas the other weekend, I had a come out sequence of 11-7-11-11-11 (...

OHCM can also be used as a transition play, so I would likely leave the 6/8 up, stay off the DP and see how the roll develops. If the shooter gets a couple more rolls into the hand and I'm not feeling his chances of the hand continuing, I might toss out a DC and transition back into OHCM or just tak...

It matters quite a bit. There is a similar bet listed in WoO called Low Dice, High Dice. The difference is that the 2 and 12 pay 5 to 1 and all the other numbers pay even money. The house edge for this bet is 5.56% https://wizardofodds.com/games/craps/appendix/5/#toc-LowDice2CHighDice Compare this t...

Does it pay even money on the 2/12 as well? According to Wizard Of Odds, HA on this bet is 16.67% Ouch!

FYI, I moved this entire thread from the "Before registering, read here first" forum to the Betting Strategies forum, as it seems a like a much more appropriate place for a discussion on OHCM and betting levels.

Carry on...

In MS, a place to come strategy is not as advantageous as it might be in other places since many places do auto buys on 5 and 9 as well as 4 and 10 place bets starting at $20 and the vig is paid on the back end. No need for the come bet "tax" when that additional come bet amount could be g...

While I follow Heavy's progressions for the most part, with some minor tweaks at the lower end for my generally more conservative nature, I don't start my 4/10 at $25 either. I start at either 10 or 15 depending on what events took place to get me to expand out to them. From 10, you can go right to ...

I'm with you on the comps thing. I don't go out of my way to chase them, but it's great that I'm being comped my entire stay in Vegas this weekend. I had a choice of every TR property, including weekend days. The "free" diamond status that I'm getting from my Founders Card membership is pa...

If you're using a press progression like Heavy's, and probably whatever one you're using as well, eventually the cycle gets to a point of where you're adding zeros to the base part of the progression and all the moves fall out from there. Looking at Heavy's 6/8 and 5/9 progressions: 6/8: 18-42-90-18...

I like that idea. Count me in!! I've been a fan of Wizard's dark side play. DC, followed by enough odds on it to cover a DP bet once point is established as a hedge against a PSO. Once DP travels, remove the DC odds. If I do a second DP bet, I'll let it exposed naked until it travels, since even if ...

I'll play DC from any position on the table. It's a little harder to be discreet about it when playing from SL1 or SR1, but the strategies don't change any.

I believe that BD only makes a single 6 or 8 bet, not both, on the transition probably based on his tracking of numbers during the hand.

Looking forward to the betting strategy discussions with this group next weekend!

Would really appreciate that as well. I get really tripped up when I go to MS because I don't have a good press schedule worked out for their auto buy rules. I generally start off at 10, 15, 36, 80 and then struggle from there.

Absolutely. We tend to try and make this game so complicated when it doesn't have to be.

I thought NJ already legalized prostitution since they keep screwing their residents.
