Re: Crapless Craps

I can't begin to tell you how many times I've seen these guys over in Shreveport/Bossier play $40 Extreme Out and start banging out 2's and 12's and go 10 - 50 (lock up 10 less juice) - 300 (lock up 50 less juice) - 1500 (lock up 300 less juice) - 2500 (lock up $8000 less juice - $2500 table max).

Re: The Hot Hand bonus bet

If they allow dollar bets on the ATS I'll bet 2-1-2 on just about anyone. I always bet at least 5-5-5 on known DI's. Typically I bet at LEAST that much on myself. Often, if I feel I'm "on" I'll play 10-5-10. I've played 10-5-10 on 220 inside, Bankerdude, DarthNater, and Parson. But I limit...

Re: Purchase a craps table Casino grade

There are quite a few GOOD used tables to be found out there in the $2500 - $3000 range if you're patient and shop around. I've bought and resold several through the years. Sometimes it's been because I was out looking for them. Other times it's been because they found me - as being in the position ...

Re: Crapless Craps

Yep. Even when I'm shooting I typically only bet the 3 and 11 plus the 6 and 8 and whatever I have established as the point. If I hit the 3 or 11 I'll pick up the 2 or 12 out of the payoff but that's pretty much been it, at least in the past. Now, I'm playing around with one of Uncle Mel's spin off ...

Re: Won a few hundred bucks....Now what to do?

Betting the Five and Nine OR the Four and Ten, for me, depend on the shooter and how often those numbers are appearing. I know many players thumb their noses at charting tables and shooters, but if I'm watching a shooter and he tosses something like: 4 - 6 - 10 - 4 then you can bet your ass I'm goin...

Re: THE DARK SIDE...

That's when you pull up a stool, order a drink, and wait for some more players to join the game. Just sit there and shoot the bull with the dealers until someone else shows up ready to play. No need to stand there and shoot yourself in the foot. It's a grind. So grind it.

I need to apply my craps money management skills to slots - or just stop playing the damn things altogether. Probl...

Re: Lowest risk $100 a hand

Between higher table limits and watered down players programs, $100 just ain't what it used to be. Spot on. Especially considering how casinos view table games as an unnecessary evil these days. Back when table games ruled the casino and a .25 cent machine was along the lines of what a $5 machine i...

Re: Lowest risk $100 a hand

A couple playing partners on a $100 doey-don't - maybe with a $3 midnight kicker on the don't player's part might work. But I'd want to take or lay odds depending on the point. Probably Lay odds on the Four and Ten and consider taking odds on the Six and Eight, depending on the shooter. Just go nake...

Great to see you back. I was afraid you'd dropped off the Covid cliff. Interesting stuff on the Stadium Baccarat. I may give that some thought next time I have some time to kill in Vegas. Lotto? Not so much. LOL. Good luck.

Re: 12’ or 14’ table?

Most people prefer a 12' table. Particularly if you are an end shooter or think you may ever want to be. Tossing from 14' out on the end is a challenge at best. For most people, the real challenge with a 14 footer is finding space in their homes for one. Even a 12 footer can be a challenge. That's w...

Re: What to do with those "even money" free bet papers?

If they give me a choice of breaking the free play down into smaller denominations I do that. For example, if I have $200 in Free Play and I can get eight $25 tickets that's preferable to me than a single $200 play. I'll usually use the $25 tickets as my DP play for OHCM strategy, with $24 each on t...
