Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

Wow, 3 pounds for an ATS bet, so is the minimum 3 + 3 + 3 if you bet them all? What's the minimum on the pass line bet? Last week, I was place betting off-strip and went up on the ATS and was advised by the Stick-man that I needed a PL, DP or a field bet in order to make the ATS bets. Has any one el...

I just finished a marathon rereading of Dave's System, nice restoration, guys, well done! It got me thinking about my wargaming that play mentioned on the December 22nd post and the one just above. I think applying Dave's "two whacks & take down all your odds" might be worth a longer l...

Hmmmm, remorse after stuttering and missing out on a third step winner, versus remorse for not stuttering and getting thumped on the 12th point? I guess I'm reading it differently as I saw it as a DP progression. The stutter is if you don't win the DP on step 2; otherwise if you keep winning DPs, ad...

Nice, 22 tosses in the center of the dark side universe - congrats to your friend

H-man,
You mentioned at the top of the thread that you also run a 5 & 9 progression, what is it? And have you tempered it as well for "backing the winning horse" ?

I've been war-gaming the $50 lays each on the 4 & 10 with the $100 DP then laying max odds. Its actually played very impressively against random dice, though can be a bit volatile as on a longish roll you'ld have $1100 on the table; I'm thinking only one DC or perhaps none, less targets that way...

Twice is my limit too; but it amazing how people try and martingale the don't. Especially when the next shooter is likely a PSO, D.N8r

Actually this guy and I seemed to mutually co-exist as my come-out sevens won his DC's with the max odds; plus as I was using the v-3 mutant set; I threw a couple of ace-dueces as well on the come-out. But I would never darkside anyone with a semblance of influence or rhythm. Yesterday I switched to...

I saw a similar play over the weekend in Vegas. A fellow was laying $50 each on the 4 and 10; while setting a DP of $100 with a $5 yo hedge. It was a trending cold table. Once a point was set he'd lay $300 on the don't and do two $50 DCs and when they traveled would lay $300 each. He'd turn off the ...

LOL! No elevator required.......

Did this thread get hijacked? Before MP can post an Aerosmith link, here's my take..... Regretfully I didn't have $156,000 to split into 52 parts, so I followed a different trail. Which now in retrospect seems like a good long term approach worth sharing. I setup 8 envelopes with $500 each; addition...

KoreanCowboy, We all started at level 1. I seesaw up and down levels and sure lots of others do too, for many reasons. Like MP said in his volatility series, a lot boils down to confidence and the casinos like to erode your confidence. I have no idea what level I'm at from buy-in to buy-in, as I can...

Last fall, I celebrated my 10th anniversary in dice influencing that started with 22 of us in Crapsfest 2004 after a lesson from Beau the month before; and continuing to today and beyond. I keep very precise track of my bankroll wins & losses, and can clearly cite that every year since 2004 has ...

I've always liked the heatseeker. It's always interesting to watch the dealers the first time you bang a six or eight. They so want to cap your flat with odds, normally the first couple of times they need to hear it twice "no odds and bring down the place". Lately I've made the first come ...

Dork, Just curious, if you are hitting more 3s than 11s, combined with 2s & 12s, then not making the points; wouldn't you be better off on the Don't Pass, vice the Pass? Sure you're bucking the devil on the come out, but you have that already covered with the $5 Red - perhaps a $7 Red instead? A...
