Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

Good news, players. The Fall order of Axis Power Craps Dice arrived TWO MONTHS EARLY. That's right. We expected this order sometime around Labor Day. Imagine my surprise when I got home from Biloxi this week and found a box from John Huxley on my doorstep. Yeah, it's APC Dice time. See the announcem...

You can learn to estimate your chip count easily if you stack your chips in the rack right. First off, you should always put your highest denomination chips in the center of the rack, surrounded by your next lowest denomination chips, followed by your next lowest denomination, etc. That way the rail...

And . . . we're just back from a fantastic weekend in Biloxi and it's too bad that most of you missed it. Man, what a great crew we had in attendance. These players shot the lights out, with hands in the teens, twenties, thirties, and even forties. It's got me even MORE excited about my upcoming 75t...

Hey T-Gold. It wouldn't change much, because they'd keep playing the same bet over and over until got their gambling "fix" in, then they'd go to the house down almost 20% on average - at least according to those numbers. People are people and they just don't want to change - even when you ...

You might THINK that you have PLENTY of time to make a decision on signing up for Craps Cruise 13. After all, it's not until NEXT YEAR. But wait a minute! The demand for cruise vacations is so high these days that cruises are selling OUT six months in advance. We're just six and a half months out on...

This particular strategy dawned on me while reading a series of jokes sent to me by my pal Bob this morning. I won't go into the joke itself because the numbers changed for this example. But it just breaks down like this. Craps players are essentially playing an even money game. Either the Pass wins...

The big challenge is switching to the Donts when your group considers that move bad luck;in such a case just playing the 3-5 count may allow one to survive First off - these days when I do a class, on the Sunday before we go out to play a live session I tell them that I MAY play the Don'ts in some ...

Those are the dates o...

Summertime and we're still booking craps classes. Dice are smokin' . . . And the chips are stacked high. Oh, man. I feel like queuing up some Ella Fitzgerald today. Maybe she'd cool things down around here. Or maybe I just need some cool crapsters to book a tune up or a betting strategy class or jus...

Wonder of the Seas CC13.jpg Whew. Probably the longest Subject Line I've ever written on this forum. Okay, let's get it together here: CRAPS CRUISE 13 - The Original Craps Cruise!

April was a full schedule of private classes here at Casa Heavy in East Texas with six individual classes and two couples classes. All that and we squeezed in that Rollin' on the Red weekend in Shreveport mid-month. Whew. It's enough to wear an old dog out. But May is right on top of us and it's tim...

My old trigger used to be if I lost on three consecutive shooters. It was either switch to the Don'ts or end the session. These days I look for reasons to switch sooner. I watch trends closer - are the sevens expanding or contracting - how did this NEXT shooter do last time? And after any really goo...

Great trip report, by the way. You hit on ALMOST all of the reasons why I don't play at that property.

I made a nice profit last year the old fashion way by pressing the box numbers. Think of it this way. If you'd bet the 5-5-5 on 10 players and none of them hit it you'd be out $555.00. Now take that $555.00 and spread it out to the tune of an extra $24 - $30 on the Six and Eight on the next ten QUA...

On the other hand, from a DI perspective, if you only bet 555 on yourself you only have to hit one side of the ATS once in every ten tries to break even. I know players who can do that easily, and probably come close to one in six, so I can see the allure.

I've talked about this a bit in the past, but I'm going to toss this out there (pun intended) once again. Bonus Bets, in particular the All Tall Small (or Big, Boom, Bust or whatever the hell else they choose to call it) are just that bets that pay you a bonus based on you overcoming some outlandish...

I used to play a little bit of the Americanized version - Pai Gow Poker - years ago. Played very similarly, except with cards. It's been so long since I've even SEEN the game, much less played it, that I'd have to refresh myself on the rules before playing again. But I do remember that you should be...

LOL. I can't BEGIN to tell you how many times I've dropped $96 across on the table only to see the Seven roll the next toss.
