Shooting from the Don't and betting on others

[$5Bill]

I went out and played with Americraps Tuesday. He kept track of my hands which were:

5, 5 12, 9, 7

6, 10, 11, 7

5, 5, 7, 7, 7, 5, 3, 8, 8, 5, 3, 10, 9, 4, 6, 10, 9, 8, 5, 7

5, 6, 6, 8, 9, 5, 12, 7, 5, 8, 11, 10, 7

9, 11, 5, 5, 7

7, 6, 9, 9, 7

3, 8, 4, 12, 2, 7

9, 7

6, 10, 5, 6, 4, 12, 6, 7

3, 10, 6, 11, 7



I'll give you my Don't Strategy first so you know how I play.

When I have the Dice: I put $10 on the don't. I set the dice to ( 5-4 on top and 4-6 facing me with the 6-1/5-2 on the sides.) On the come-out roll my ring finger and thumb are all the way down on the deck. When my point is set, My ring finger stays down on the deck and I raise my thumb all the way to the top edge of the dice. Don't ask me why I do that, maybe it's because I don't want to roll that same point number again. When I have my finger and thumb all the way down on the deck I have a slower spin. After the come out roll, I get a faster spin on the dice when I have my ring finger down on the deck and my thumb up at the top of the dice. Then I try like hell and hope I roll a seven before I knock myself off.

On other Shooters:
I wait until they have rolled the dice 8 times and then I make a $10 Don't Come bet. If it travels to the 6 or 8 I will put another $10 in the Don't Come. I will keep doing that until I get an outside number or 2 loses. After I get an outside number as my point I will place the 6 and/or the 8 to cancel them out. ( I have to remember if he makes his point, to have my 6 and/or 8 working on the come out.) If the point becomes the 5 or 9 I will wait for the outcome. If the point becomes the 4 or 10 I will lay single Odds on my $10 DC bet.

I also watch each shooter to see if they are setting the dice or if they are a DI. I want to see what their top numbers are. I know this one regular who sets the dice but is not a DI but tosses the dice the same way every time. He rolls a lot of 4's and 10's. He has killed me on the 4 and 10's more times tan I can remember. It finaly sunk in to my nogin so now I don't even bother betting on him when I'm playing my Don't Strategy.

Ok, now for Tuesday with Americraps
My first 4 hands put me in the dumper, especially that third hand. I just couldn't do anything right. The other 6 were profitable except for the 9th hand were I broke even

This might bring some credibility to the biased dice theory!

You can laugh if you want too but Americraps and I made some more money tonight.

I edited that 10 to say 6

[Americraps]

Well, this table tonight was hot, I mean it was hot. I made some nice money playing right side. How $5Bill made money on the don't is beyond me. I know that system seems too complicated at first glance, but for it to work on a hot table like that means that 'Ole Mr $5 has come up with something good.

Hey we're just joshing with you!

What do you do if the ninth roll is a come-out? Do you play the don't pass or do you wait until a point is established and then bet a don't come?

[heavy]

Depends on what the first nine number were that rolled. Odds are I'd go for the DC.

Hi Wudged

That's an excellent question.

There are to many shooters that seem to be able to throw a come-out 7, at least at my home casino, so I will wait until after he establishes his point and then I will do my Don't Come Bet.
