A lot of players play craps for the fun of it. And of course, a lot of players lose money in
the name of fun.
If you're playing in a casino or betting online, a serious player should have a plan. One
that can put the edge in his/her favor and, is simple and easy. In addition, something that
doesn't need a lot of judgment and thinking. Even so, you must take into consideration
that you can still get mentally tired in the casino without even being conscious of it. It's
hard to do even simple things right, or think clear when you are tired. So, it helps to take
breaks every now and then, especially if you are down units. You will have a better
chance of making good decisions when fresh and mentally alert, and you most likely will
recover loses with less problems.
Sometimes in life things get out of whack. The same can be said for the craps tables. One
thing that can get out of whack at the tables is synchronization. For instance: The point is
a 4. Then the shooter rolls a 6,3, then a 7 - a don't out.
Now, let's say the next point following this don't out is again a 4. The same point twice in a
row with a 7 in the middle. What is happening? The seven is splitting the point in the
middle. The table is out of sync. Hint: A good sign for don't players. This example and
many others can give a player very valuable clues as to when to bet, and where to bet.
There are numerous little clues that can mean a lot to a serious player.
Suppose you and a friend enters a casino. You choose a gaming table you want to play at.
Your friend leaves you and wanders around. Ten minutes later he/she comes back and
asked "How is it going?" You answer:
1. "Terrible." 2. "Not so good." 3. "I don't know." 4. "Fair." 5. "Great." Which answer
should decide if you should stay or leave? We all know the right one. Yet, to a lot of
people it makes no difference. They just stay, stay, and stay. Learn to evaluate whether a
situation is going to be profitable or not right away. After ten or so minutes, leave if it is
bad, stay if it is good.
Of course the gaming table of my choice is the craps table. Why? Because, the craps
game is easier to beat than the other games. Why? A can player can learn such things
as…
1. Why numbers rolls when they do, and knowing when they are due.
2. When to expect the dice to pass.
3. When to expect the dice to don't out.
4. When they are in either a passing or don't streak and using that knowledge to ones
advantage.
Can these things be learned? Yes.
The dice have a law of average as anything else does. Understanding this is one of the
tips (secrets) to winning at craps.
They (whoever they are) say the dice are independent of each previous roll? Okay, I'll
give them that. However, there is something that is not independent of each previous roll
- the law of average. The seven rolls when it is suppose to most of the time and, the other
numbers do also.
If the casino can use the law of average to win your money then you can use it to win
theirs? To see this law of average at work, roll the dice and record the numbers. Over a
given period, 100 times or so, 200, maybe 300, the 7 will out roll the other numbers. The
6&8 out rolls the 5&9,etc.
Facts: The 7 rolls more than the 6/8. The 6/8 more than the 5/9. The 5/9 more than the 4/10.
The 4/10 more than the 3/11. And the 3/11 more than the 2/12. If rolled long enough all the
numbers will find their place in the law of average.
It's very advantageous to understand why the dice do what they do. Knowing this can win
you money. This can give you, the player, an edge. The odds can be reversed and put in
your favor. Learning to see and use this information (tips) equals profit. A player "can
win" more bets than he/she loses if they have the right information and understand the
game well enough.
Let me give you something else to think about...
A $6.00 bet on the #8 place bet pays $7.00. How often do you expect the #8 to hit during
every play? Once is good, twice is great, three times is better. Try to remember the times
it did not roll at all. Plenty of times, right? Anyway, when it hits once and you "take it
down" you have made a profit of $7.00. If you say same bet though (leave it up), you
have only won $1.00 thus far. Why? Your original $6.00 bet is still on the board. If it
seven's out now, you/ve only made $1.00. Suppose it hits once more. You collect $7.00
more dollars. Now you have $14.00. Sound good? Maybe. Your original $6.00 dollars is
still on the board. $6.00 from $14.00 is $8.00. Now if it seven's out you make only $8.00.
$1.00 dollar more than the first $7.00 you made for the chance of it hitting twice. A big
gamble for just one more dollar.
If you make two or three place bets and the dice seven out, you have to win two or three
more bets - one at a time just to get even. Imagine betting across the board (covering all
the numbers) and losing all of them at once. Imagine how many times you have to hit
them again before you can re-coup your losses.
“ If “… you do.
The above examples are just a few of the disadvantages. However, there are advantages
in beating the game, and the player can have an edge also. It's not that hard.
