Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

Heavy, Whaddya do at a casino with multiple tables? Say you're holding $1,000 in chips and wanna go to another table- do you just pick up your chips and migrate? That's what I've always done; I've walked with $100-1,500 to another table. Sometimes the box notifies the new box, sometimes they don't. ...

Thanks, Heavy. I've asked two dealers at IP and they said they'd allow a Put bet with Odds on any number after the CO, but I forgot to ask if they'd allow me to reduce the Odds whenever I wanted. But the proof will have to wait til I actually throw the money down. I'll post what happens when I final...

Lemme raise this thread from the dead... IP's started a new "promo" campaign to bring me back--$120/month in comp chips--I can pick them up if I bridge an overnight stay between the weekly ending/beginning dates. (I'm not intending to play just yet; just gonna function as the driver for my...

I can't even get past the call-out and verbal insults enough to offer advice. I would have left for three reasons. Most importantly, I'm not gonna do time for messing with a buncha fuck-offs I wouldn't cross the street for. Secondly, I'm there to have a good time and having to soothe feathers outrig...

I've never done very well playing for 3 hits regularly. Two hits is demanding enough for me with MP's $204 WOTC Across bet (me shooting or someone I trust with the dice who's not trying to nail Whirls & 7s). However, I've been gaming a different WOTC that I think was either Stratocasterman's or ...

Avoid the pass line and come bets unless you're the shooter. At least that's my opinion. ... I would encourage you to continue to think in terms of early steep regressions. You could, for example, regress from $66 inside to a $12 six and eight and only have $3 at risk to the seven after that first ...

Little disagreement here on the result of VMTS. They will save you money on short rolls, but they will not "cost" you money on long rolls. You will not take in more money on long rolls using VMTS. Cost indicates a negative value. It costs you nothing, actually to pull your bets down early...

Thanks, BD!

I should correct a false impression I think I made. Only the right-side dealer got "mouthy". The stick was patient in his actions and completely mum, though his facial expression when he made eye contact with me made it obvious he was frustrated (I was at SR1). The box didn't do anything; ...

I thought I'd repost this separately to find out what all ya'll think of this situation and how would you handle it? It's a long read, but it's cut and pasted verbatim from the thread titled, "The All, Small and Tall Bet" so if you read it there, you can skip it here and just answer the qu...

Thanks for that, Memo! I ran into a real "delay" during my last table session. I know I'm 'post to be more PC and tolerant of folks more "unfortunate" than me, but this guy takes the cake for unintended delays. He was wheel-chair bound, it seemed he was extremely introverted, and...

The last time I tossed the dice either I got lucky or I actually DI'd the ATS. With only the 2 & 12 wanting, I turned off all my bets, reset from V3 to X6's and threw 2, 2, 4, 9, 12 as I recall. Later the same day I needed the 12 and reset for it again and hit it in ~2-3 rolls I think it was. A ...

Hmm. Maybe there's "hope", Irish. At least at the IP Biloxi; I know they'll let you bet comp chips in the DC and Come boxes. I've done that lots there.

Still won't let go of that "Put vigs" bone... I'm wondering about a different method of tackling the Put vig & Odds replacing a Place Bet. I know that the tipping points for the Odds bets are: ~7x-Odds on the 4/10 ~5x-Odds on the 5/9 ~6x-Odds on the 6/8 for the house-edge to be lower t...

What do you do if the shooter makes his point? Let's say you have a $30 DP 4 w/$30 on the 6/8 and he bullfrogs. What's the strategy then, take down the 6&8? or let them ride and DC?

Mebbe I'm just to ignernt to understand the flow in the Back to Basics thread, but it all went over my head like a stealth chopper. However, I found an explanation I could follow from MP's old site: from https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/diceinstitutemxf/put-bets-t3660818.html The Twain Where PUT-bets...

Since this is a vig thread people talk about not betting the 5 and nine due to the 4 percent vig . Why not put bet them instead vig problem solved. I missed the implication here until Irish reposted it as a quote. I'm goin' over to the Back to Basics post myself, but is a WAG allowed? The vig probl...

Thanks for all the replies, Guys! And thanks, Eastcoast, for the casino confirmation. I dunno where this is going, but until I hit repeat numbers, I don't think I'd consider much more than 3x Odds as the initial Place bet replacement. Maybe my mathematical intuition is faulty, but my thinking only t...

Thanks, Operator!

I prefer to think of it somewhat differently. Let's take a pseudo-mathematical approach. Let's start with your $18 six and eight. You don't really want to press off of those until they're paid for, so you are looking at scoring three hits on the six and eight before moving out to the five and nine....
