You only have to risk one buck to score a win on the hardways. A $1 hard six parlays to $10. If it hits a second time you can parlay it to $100. The third hit brings down $1000.

If you are tracking an ability to repeat hardways without a seven or a softy in between, then you can always experiment with a $1 hardway and track how often you complete the parley to $100. Once you prove to yourself that you complete it often enough, you can up the starting amount.
When you buy in, give the dealer an extra $20 (i.e. buy in for $520 instead of $500) and ask for a "stack of white/blue" for the $20. Put those 20 chips off to the side or in you back rack and use those for your hardway parley experiment. If you win the parley, put the winning in the back rack. If you clear out the back rack without any wins, you'll have learned something there also.

Yep. Cheap lesson for $20.

I would imagine that betting heavy on the HWs , then setting for and nailing them, might be a heat producing event, but I'm just imagining here. No real experience to back that up.

I have seen Craps Teams on the same table where the shooter sets for the Hardway and the "Moneyman" of the team bets big on the Hardways. Shooter does not get Heat because he has no "dog in the game".
This is one of the major reasons why I think there should always be at least Two Craps players on the same Craps table working together preferably as an undercover team...
