Re: Roulette Probability Question
I wasn't trying to be facetious, just putting out a thought I had, and wondering if anyone else had ever thought of modifying an existing game. Someone thought of adding that second zero at some point, and there must be places that come up with all the various card games and extended bets, like the...

Re: Roulette Probability Question
Just thinking like I'm the owner of the casino, or as the person that sets up a new game, here's a thought: Suppose you set up a roulette wheel with 40 individual slots. This would equate to a wheel with four zeros, but here's the catch, you make two slots a single zero, and two slots a double zero....

Re: betting strategies for novices
I'm what is probably a low-roller, and also in the 6 & 8 club. For me, the six possible ways of throwing a seven is eclipsed by the ten ways of throwing a 6 or an 8. Yes, the bet needs to be bigger, since you're on the favorite side of the odds when betting both the 6 & 8, but for a moderate...

Re: Betting the Six and Eight
The 6 and 8 are my meat and potatoes. They are nearly all I bet, and without fail my first bets every session. I prefer $10 tables, and freely admit to having gnat-balls the overwhelming majority of the time. I will typically buy in with 3 or 4 hundred, which will let me bet on 10 shooters, and stil...

Re: Are you ready for the NBA... 2020-2021
I’m with you 100% on those thoughts Heavy.
And while I could not care less about basketball, I thoroughly enjoyed following Jamie and his picks when he was doing them a while back. All ready for your system to flex its muscles Jamie, let the profits flow forth to all!!!!

Re: MY NBA GAMES PICKS AGAIN?
Good to see your picks again Jamie.
I’ll join the others in the feeling that my very limited interest in pro sports has dwindled even further, but I do like seeing the possibilities of predicting outcomes and the potential profit associated with that.
Here’s hoping you get back on your win streak!

Re: Craps Apps and Online Craps For Practicing Betting Strategies
Hello Mcchacho! I have noticed exactly the same thing that you mentioned in those on-line simulators. The Wizard's simulator seems to give sevens at a higher rate than what I feel a random number generator (rng) should give. Especially when you're playing right-side strategies. Go to playing the don...

Re: Six and Eight Betting Strategies
Thanks Tgold. It definitely is an evolutionary process, and as I move forward, not all of the paths I try lead to success. The trick is identifying the wrong path quickly. Following my first couple posts, I got a PM that suggested I read John Patrick's book, so I bought a copy and have been reading ...

Re: Six and Eight Betting Strategies
I'm a relatively new player so the 6 and 8 bets are pretty much my entry to the world of craps, and they are where I still put most of my chips. I started out just flat betting them, and would usually just let them ride until the shooter sevened out. At first, I didn't put much into throwing the dic...

Re: 22Inside's Betting Evolution
You guys are all way ahead of me. I had a weekend where every time I pressed past my third hit, I'd lose it to the seven.....every time. That spooked me. I press my 6 & 8 together, so for me starting at $12 each, first hit presses both to $18 each with $2 back, then next hit goes to $30 each by ...

Re: 22Inside's Betting Evolution
+1 on the plan to know your bets, presses, and regressions ahead of time. I actually have a page saved on my phone under the "Notes" button called Bet Progressions that detail this up to 6 hits on my usual bets, including what it should pay, what the next level would be for pressing, and h...

Re: MY NBA PICKS.
I was at the casino yesterday and after walking away from the craps table, I tried to put in the Hawks, but was too late.
I guess I can consider that a kind of a win for me.
Keep posting Jamie, you'll turn it around.

Re: MY NBA PICKS.
Well I had a good night at the casino last night so I went over and played OKC -7.5. From reading this thread, it seems that didn't win, C'est-la-vie. I did enjoy a few Heineken Lights, and was served by a few young, attractive, and scantily clad cocktail waitresses, so that's a plus. Keep posting J...

Re: The Comp Game
Digging this one out of the archives because it is becoming something I'm starting to pay attention to lately. So for anyone reading my trip reports, you know I'm not a big bettor, and I once asked one of the supervisors in the craps pit what they have be down for, and he said $20. I guess that is a...

Re: MY NBA PICKS.
The on-line betslip builder for Rivers by me lists OKC as -7 for the spread.
I'll check it again when I'm there tonight and see if I can actually get through the betting process successfully this time.
Thanks again Jamie for posting up your picks like you do.

Re: MY NBA PICKS.
I was at the casino last night Jamie, and when I realized it was about 7:30, I took a walk over to the sports betting terminals. I've never used one of these aside from just poking around and seeing what could be bet on and all the options and prop bets for the superbowl. Anyway, by the time I found...

Re: MY NBA PICKS.
Glad to see that you're back to your routine Jamie. After a scare like you had, moving forward is a good thing.
I make my weekly trip to the casino tonight, and I'll look into what the sportsbook offers, maybe I'll join in with your picks if I can.

Re: What’s the story with ear buds?
I was at a table in Rivers, Schenectady, and a guy was buying in to play while wearing earbuds. The box told him to take them out. Kind of seemed like they held back his chips until he removed them, but it all happened kind of quickly so really hard to say for sure if that is what they were doing. I...
