Re: Bonus Bets are . . . well . . . Bonus Bets

Just curious do you know how many times you have hit it? If not i think you are playing your game the way you should play it and there is nothing wrong with that. As far as house edge, For me odds and house edge are for the house. I dont ignore them but if the 4 has been rolling all night i might b...

Re: Bonus Bets are . . . well . . . Bonus Bets

That's my opinion, like it or not. Like it!? I can’t jump up and give you a standing O fast enough!! I HATE the ATS!! Like, I’m talking with a passion hate it! I’d give my entire life up just for one time to hear a trip report where the ATS isn’t mentioned whatsoever. It sickens me just how many pl...

Re: Pai Gow Tiles, do you play it?

Oh I’m very familiar with pai gow poker. It’s one of my favorite games. It was actually one of the first games I learned to play.

Pai Gow Tiles, do you play it?

This past year I started to learn how to play pai gow tiles. I bought a set and printed out a sheet with optimal strategy. Not gonna lie, it’s a VERY difficult game to master optimally. But, that challenge is what intrigues me about this game! If played optimally, you can actually achieve a player a...

Re: How Bad are those Bad Bets - and How Can You Profit From Them

You will never and I mean NEVER see me drop one dime on the ATS, fire bet, horn, hardways, hops etc Thats a long long time KtC. I did see that you tempered your comment later when it comes to craps. I to lay off alot of the "sucker bets" but over the years i have learned when to gamble or...

Re: How Bad are those Bad Bets - and How Can You Profit From Them

So, very early on in my gambling adventure I bought a general gambling book to try & learn what I could about how to gamble smart, and the book was very detailed on house edge, how it works and why you as a smart gambler should avoid high house edge games & bets. This shaped my approach of h...

Re: Sharing some wisdom as a longtime darkside player

I do agree that the exception to that rule is if you’re a skilled shooter and know your sets. In that case, shoot from the Don’t all day! But, people like me who haven’t escaped random zone yet probably should take heed. I do want to make it one of my goals to master the art of playing the don’t as ...

Re: Sharing some wisdom as a longtime darkside player

There’s a guy at my local who buys in for 5k and does nothing but bet a $25 dp and $25 dc both with max (10x) odds and he shoots the dice every time. Boy have I seen that guy just obliterate himself sometimes. Again, this is why it is not wise to shoot the dice from the Don’t.

Re: do you play every shooter?

This is a topic I’m still trying to figure out. Life was so much easier before I learned about DI, dice tossing etc. lol. I feel like I have to solve quantum physics now on every shooter to try and determine how I’m gonna bet. Lately, I’ve just decided to keep things simple and just bet a 6&8 on...

Sharing some wisdom as a longtime darkside player

Hey, y’all! So, my 20 year craps journey consisted primarily of playing darkside. I’ve converted to light side these days as I now have a much better understanding of proper light side play as well as becoming a better shooter. With that said, I played a ton of darkside throughout the years often wi...

Re: Pai Gow Poker - One of the best games for casual players!

Face up has a lower house edge than conventional pai gow. Definitely play it!
