Heavy's Axis Power Craps Forum

*Sorry this post can't be 'shrunk' horizontally... I edited it in msWord. File this under "just a way to play"... ... y'ever read the blurb under the Forum Header, "Betting Strategies for Casino Craps"? It says: Setting and influencing the dice roll is just part of the picture. T...

Hey dork....thanks for the thoughts. I agree with the loss limits - and would be using 2 x PSO as my marker so in this scenario that would be $280. I have a large enough bankroll to withstand several sessions of PSO if that where to happen. You shouldn't have to. If your SSR is a strong 7, I think ...

I see two 'faults/weaknesses' with your descriptions. $200 isn't enough for a loss limit. I'm buying in with the same exact amount, $500. My home SSR is about the same as yours. My loss limit is 2 consecutive PSO's or $400 (which I've never approached without consecutively PSO'ing). I bet "MP$2...

He can catch a pair of dice in the air with a pair of chopsticks.

*True story: I once cut a wasp in half with a runnin' chainsaw (and I was tryin' to)... sure, wasps ain't fast, but that's how we 'ninja' down here in Missi'ppi.

I was reading through an old thread and found a betting strategy called "Steve3". I think the originator was Al_Falcons, but I'm not sure. From a link in one of Al_Falcons' posts: Scout, Yes both the Steve3 and Steve6 methods raise or lower the 6&8 in a pair when there is one hit. Stev...

Memo, would you go into more detail about your regression after three hits? I don't understand... you say "Take three hits, then regress to 162, 169, or 179, depending on the point. (Golden)"--shouldn't it read "...then regress from 162, 169, or 179..."? If I'm correct, what are ...

Thanks very much, Gents! Your combined comments are like an epiphany. It makes real sense now, how a regression fits with long-term play vs. the PSO's. I haven't experienced a real dry spell yet... I've suffered through one PSO but recovered in the same session (ironically, in light of my question--...

I was thinkin' about MP's counsel on 'leveraging strong but only early against the "best opportunity" '-- that's my paraphrasing for his suggestion (essentially) that a 7 SSR roller should be aggressively regressed by the 3rd box number rolled. Assuming a press one, take one betting scheme...

Hmmm... is it a violation? Shootitall, I wonder. What's your recommendation? I'll buy in with 500-700 with the intention of playing my version of MP's 204 Across. I'll usually buy in with those amounts, but I'll have a total of ~$1600 with me. My scheme's risk is $207 on a PSO with 6/8 as the point....

I couldn't figure it, either, LS. I think the idea was to hedge the $15 spread on the ATS... maybe his thinking was something like, $3 hedges the ATS, and the C&E rounds out the bet to $5. Hell, it made no sense to me.

I had a very fascinating session last Wednesday morning that I meant to report. I've always wondered how I'd do if I used my betting strategy on all the shooters at a "choppy" table--you know--PSO & PP/PSO rolls interspersed with a couple good hands. I found out during that session. Th...

I don't take Max Odds (10x, down here) immediately. My PL and 'aggressive odds' play is pretty cautious; I start usually at 5x Odds; win again, and 7x Odds, win again, and 10x Odds. (place bet amounts increase by 'up one unit' except for a 'hero number') If I win a PL w/10x Odds, I'll increase the P...

Thanks very much for the links, Guys! Those sites clear up all of questions I had on proper payoffs, betting strategies, etc.

My favorite dice sets on a reglur craps table is 1-5/1-5 on the CO (trying to fill craps numbers on the ATS and pay the Horn bet); then I switch to x6's. I sure seem to get a lot of non-paying craps repeaters. I wonder if a true influencer has more of an advantage on a Crapless table (with the corre...

I bought in today with my 'usual' $500; depending on my goals for the session, I'll buy in with 300, 500, 600 or 700. Oddly, (I sez to myself), I rarely buy in for $400. Dunno why not. Anyway, the goal of today's session was to try for the very first time-- MP's $204 Across w/ a 2-hit regression to ...

I got tired and quit this morning. I was in the middle of a "tear". I bought in with $500 at ~0400 in the morning. I was alone at the table. I'd just woke up and come down to the table; no alarm prompted me or nuthin'... I thought I'd tiptoe into my session and started off $5 PL w/ $25 Odd...

I'm gonna describe my system in more detail since my post got as numerous responses as it did. I've never been there for another shooter's long hand that I can recall (I'll define a "long hand" as 25+ rolls). Part of the "miss" is because I try to limit my play to 4 players inclu...

A dealer taught me something that I keep suggesting here... you have to give yourself a chance to win "BIG" money, even if you're a little bettor, or as in my case, a Chicken Little Extraordinaire (par excellence)... His advice was, I gotta give myself a chance to let some number, any numb...

I just gamed your numbers with my 'system'. Taking on the 4th parlay never occurred because the points that were parlayed 3x became the new point; however I did take down that entire 3x place bet both times and moved it to $140 PL Odds on the point of 5, and one time I did the same with the Place 6 ...

There's no way to gauge; you haven't said what numbers were rolling. However, I think I should be up a couple thousand, if I were to play and stick to 'my' system...assuming the point is established as an inside number, PL w/5x odds, $90 Inside, regression to $54 Across after two hits, with reductio...
