    Last time you were at a Craps table, by the time you left were you up or down? Where were you playing and how much did you buy in for? How long did you play? What were your bets?

    Brought 1800 to the table. $15 pass line with full-odds (3x4x5x). $25-$30 inside place bets. $25 hard-way if it's the point. Pressed once on the place bets. $5 fire bet. Left table a couple hours later with 1700, so lost 100. I would blame it on the hard-way bet, but I got lucky and really came out even on that. I guess it would be the fire bet that did it, but we were having fun.

    The last session I was down about $500. Every time I'd get most of my come bets up, 7 out. Just started to get painful after a while.
    Time before that, I was up about $1k. Earned back almost everything I lost at Cosmo/Aria.

    I blame it all on Frank.

    The last time at the craps table? A couple weeks ago I hit a royal in video poker earlier in the night so I'm feeling real good. After a bunch of makers mark I decide the craps table was a good decision. Well, it wasn't. It was a $15 table. Took single to double odds at times. Occasional place bet. Didn't last long. Luckily the gf came over and said "let's go eat" so we hit up the 24 hour cafe.

    Golden Nugget in early August. BI: $500; CO: ~$600; Net: +$100, or so. 5 on the line with 3x4x5, and place two inside for $10/$12. Played about an hour. Only one "good" shooter. He made four passes and got a place six up to $30 on slow press.

    Mirage 2 months ago. Bought in for 1000, down 700 in 15 minutes playing 25 across on all numbers with 5 on hard ways. hit a run, got up 75 and left. Comeback complete. I dont do come or pass line bets unless i am shooting due to max odds of 3 4 5 would rather place all bets including point.

    Craps isn't for the faint of heart.

    You can miss out on a tonne, by betting the wrong side.

    There is no system. There is no right or wrong.

    If you like action...this is the game!!!!

    I need to see this method... Always hear about the doey don't, but have never seen it!

    This last time, bought in for 300. Various drunk bets but I do remember being one each away from the all and tall. Damnit...

    It's a losing method. The way I play I should be losing 3500 an hour or more. Pure luck and discipline that I have been winning. I don't suggest it. At least at these stakes. I'm going with it until I lose my ass. Last 5 trips luck has changed a little.

    Thanks Packer, but I'm guessing a great comp generator? Assuming you are doing okay and can sustain for a little while?

    Played Saturday night at the Horseshoe Cleveland in the HL room. Roller coaster ride - was down $5K and decided to put another $3K down to see what I could do. Was probably down to $1.5K before I went on a tear. Kept throwing hardways on the come out so started betting each of them for $10 on the come out. Kept hitting them. At one point, I threw a hard way 5 out of 7 rolls. Then I hit the 6 point fire bet. Next roll, hit the 5 point fire bet. I hadn't even been paid for the 6 pointer yet! Cashed out up $5K for the night - pretty good considering that at one point I was down $6.5K.

    Maybe I need to get to the next VMB craps meet.
