Re: Roll Tracker App for iPhone

Indie, that first one is an especially good idea! Having an electronic Log Book on your phone would be a useful tool and eliminate the need to carry around a notepad. Might get folks to really take the logging seriously. Electronic roll tracking at the table is a non-starter. Just won't fly with the...

Re: Roll Tracker App for iPhone

Unlikely I'd be willing to put up with the support hassles for a price point like $15. And THAT, my friends, is one of the main reasons Maddog GIVES BoneTracker away instead of charging for it. With that said . . . he sure does provide a lot of support gratis. One of these days we're going to have ...

Re: The Iron Cross - maybe it doesn't work so well.

Well, the way I play it, this situation would not apply. I only do it on my initial come-out roll so I have no bets up to "work", beyond my pass-line bet. And I generally only play it if the 5, 6, or 8 become the point so that I don't have another number to cover. However, unless you are u...

Re: The Iron Cross - maybe it doesn't work so well.

The IronCross/Umbrella/Anything-but-7 system is a really bad system. The HouseAdvantage (HA) is significant against the player. However I will use the IC on occasion and have 2 or 3 different ways in which I utilize it to change up my betting. With my 2V, I will occasionally exhibit a bias towards 3...

Re: Ride the trend or buck the trend?

There is a BIG difference in inferring what "SHOULD" happen, and indicating what event out of all possible events is the "Most Likely" (highest probability) to happen. Probability indicates that the most likely number to occur on the next roll will be a 7. That does not mean the ...

Re: Roll Tracker App for my iPhone

Re: What's the Point in Lay Betting?

Ugocat, I believe that you are fine and have it correct. The difference, if I'm reading your description correctly, is that what you are describing is bringing down the Lay-Bet on the win. So a $31 Lay-Bet on the 5, the 7 rolls and you win, you are paid $20, and get your $30 back if you are bringing...

Re: charting/trend/ decision question

I guess it would depend on how you approach the game and your philosophy regarding trends. If you are a "follow-the-trend" type of person, then I would suppose you want to bet some combination of the 6,8,9,10 using one or more of the numbers. If you are a "Trend-Reversal" type of...

Re: A " Unique / Practical " approach to this " Game " -

Yes, I play this strategy on occasion, though not very often, mostly as something "different" to keep things interesting. At one time I mocked it up on a spreadsheet and on wincraps to figure out what it would take to make it work. I forget the details of it, but basically you can lose up ...

It is funny how just about everyone "sets" the dice these days. I think it has gotten to the point of being just another of the Craps Player superstitions. Or perhaps it has gotten to the "Chicken-Soup" analogy of it-may-not-work-but-it-can't-hurt so why not try it. Someone setti...
