Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

I tried it for a brief period, but found it to be too distracting both in terms of logging everything as well as the focus required to try and discern trends and patterns in all of that minutiae.

All of those fake craps games earn hardly any tier points, if any at all. One of the many reasons I avoid them like the plague.

I almost never bet the field on myself since I set for inside numbers and roll a ton of 5, 6 and 8's.

Sure, I could have taken that 5k down and had more chips when the hand ended.....Conversely, one more hit on the ten would have added 10k. Now, that is a worthy goal. (Still a bit elusive ;) ) These are among my craps goals for 2025. Get a number pressed to table max and get a hit on it. Final stre...

I'm not really familiar with their tables. How is the build quality? There are so many places to play in Vegas that it's impossible to generalize table conditions like you are asking. If you're just starting out and a self proclaimed "not a dice influencer", it might be a little premature ...

There's a whole annual convention dedicated to new casino gaming technology, game ideas that get pitched to casinos to license, etc. It's the Global Gaming Expo (G2E), held in Las Vegas every year.

Ive heard you mention Power pressing many times before , But Im not exactly sure what it means, Just adding an extra bet from the rack? A power press us taking the proceeds from a win on a number, plus some additional from your rack to increase the size of the bet on that number. A popular power pr...

Do Ya have any classes in AC this year? Heavy hasn't been north of the Mason Dixon lone in years. :mrgreen: the 2025 classes, in addition to cruises, are in Biloxi and Vegas. The schedule is posted here, over in the Atte d a Seminar - Buy Heavy's Stuff sub forum as well as discussed on his FB forum...

A chair also works well for the foundation of a makeshift toss station. Use the chair back to simulate the rail to lean over and put an empty box on the seat to simulate the approximate height of the deck. A towel over the box can also be used to provide a felt like surface feel.

The important thing is to have a qualification strategy for other shooters, not necessarily what it is (well, unless you're talking about the 5 count ).

"Bullfrog" = immediately hitting the established point. "I wait at least one roll after setting the next point" = pretty much what it says. If the shooter immediately makes (bullfrogs) their first point, I wait for at least one roll after they establish their next one. I've seen ...

I qualify every shooter. No 5 count for me though...

I want to see a box number after setting a point. If the point gets bullfrogged, I wait for at least one roll after setting the next point.

Love the 30 6/8 regression play as well, especially on randies. After the regression, I'll generally go up a unit on the.next hit. Next hit on the number go up one more unit and place the adjacent number for table minimum depending on how the shooter is looking at that point. If I'm not feeling it w...

Very common around here. I typically only play it on myself only, but if the table is hot and fun, I'll chance a few shooters. I also play for the dealers when I play. I make my pass line bet big enough to cover any come loss on the ATS. I need to find a set that will roll boxcars. It is usually th...

It's a very common requirement, yes. Another downside of that bet. Makes an even stronger case for why you shouldn't be betting the ATS on every shooter.

Welcome to the forums, DougC! You've come to the right place to start your DI journey.

I keep wanting to give roulette a try as an alternate sit down game to take a break from the tables.

Unless he's changed his progression, the Parson Press collects that first hit at 80, then goes to 200 on the next hit. A recent small mod Ed and I discussed a while back was on that first hit at 80, dropping 4, press to 100 and rack a black chip. Next hit pays 145, net of the 5 vig and still press t...

The difference with the $36 5/9 in Biloxi is that they auto buy the 5 and 9 starting at $20 (in most places, except for the cheap ass bastards at Harrah's and possibly Treasure Bay). In this case it's to your advantage to bet $36 instead of $35. A $36 buy on the 5/9 will pay $53 (after the $1 vig th...

Don't use Google to try and find it. Use the board search feature for golden double whammy and it will jump right out at you.

Sometimes Google isn't your friend...
