Trying to figure out if it is possible for a system I want to try and use or maybe someone here has done this and can tell me how bad of an idea this is. I would try this at a $5 table if I can only find $10 tables I would just double all bets.

I want to lay the 4 & 10 for $20. Then I would like to place the 5 and 9 for $5 and the 6 & 8 for $6. If my place bets hit I would take them up one unit on each subsequent hit after the first hit. If my 4 or 10 is lost I would leave it down until roll has 7 outed.

Is this something I can make a script for on WinCraps or is there another simulator out there that I could?

Has anyone tried this before and found it is ok or awful?

Thank you

Like all other craps systems, I assume you already know it's a loser but the question becomes how much of a loser?

0.42% HE (per roll) on the 4/10 lays.
0.46% HE (per roll) on the 6/8 place bets
1.11% HE (per roll) on the 5/9 place bets

https://wizardofodds.com/games/craps/appendix/2/

Thus, per roll, you could expect to lose the following per your unit size:

EL($5 bets) = 10(-.0042) + 10(-.0046) + 10(-.0111) = -.042 - .046 - .112 = -$0.20... so you could expect to lose 20 cents PER ROLL with this system and a $5 unit.

EL($5 bets) = 20(-.0042) + 20(-.0046) + 20(-.0111) = -.084 - .092 - .224 = -$0.40... so you could expect to lose 40 cents PER ROLL with this system and a $10 unit.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

ok
those place 5 and 9 really are poor bets.(by house edge of course)

I would not make them and rather bet 2 units on the 6&8 instead, imo.
Quote: quincy

If my place bets hit I would take them up one unit on each subsequent hit after the first hit.

after the second win does all the place bets go up 1 unit or does just the one that wins?

I do not know if you can,
but I (eye)
have lots of these auto bet files close to this and can easily adjust it. I do
use Wincraps Classic
so I would have to convert over (easy using Pro, still have to check to make sure it works)

R all bets working on the come out roll?
each bet does not know it is a come out roll, btw

Yes, maybe that is better just place the 6 & 8 for $12 each and lay the 4 & 10 for $20 each.

After the 6 or 8 hits a second time press just that number by one unit and another unit every time it hits.

I would have all bets working on come out roll.

Thank you

Quincy:
Since you stated your desire to try this out in live play, be aware that most casinos would require a
minimum $40 lay plus $1 vig on a 4 or a 10.

Ok, thanks. I have never bet a lay. I thought the vig was $1 on a $20 bet.

Lay bets on the 4&10 work like this.
the vig is most times 5% of what you can win.
so $40 pays $20
there is the $1 vig

some places have lower minimums
not all
Sally

I have the code done in WC Classic
 When . . .
Initializing Auto-Bet
or when . . .
A point is decided "against" any number
or when . . .
Last roll was a come-out roll
Any 7 has rolled each time
then . . .
Bet $ 5 on Place 5
Bet $ 5 on Place 9
Bet $ 6 on Place 6
Bet $ 6 on Place 8
Bet $ 10 on Lay 4
Bet $ 10 on Lay 10
Bet $ 0 on Chip-Stack # 5
Bet $ 0 on Chip-Stack # 6
Bet $ 0 on Chip-Stack # 8
Bet $ 0 on Chip-Stack # 9
Go to "end"
While . . .
Place 5 has won each time
then . . .
Add $ 1 to Chip-Stack # 5
While . . .
Place 5 has won each time
Chip-Stack # 5 is greater than $ 1
then . . .
Add $ 5 to Place 5
Go to "end"
While . . .
Place 6 has won each time
then . . .
Add $ 1 to Chip-Stack # 6
While . . .
Place 6 has won each time
Chip-Stack # 6 is greater than $ 1
then . . .
Add $ 6 to Place 6
Go to "end"
While . . .
Place 8 has won each time
then . . .
Add $ 1 to Chip-Stack # 8
While . . .
Place 8 has won each time
Chip-Stack # 8 is greater than $ 1
then . . .
Add $ 6 to Place 8
Go to "end"
While . . .
Place 9 has won each time
then . . .
Add $ 1 to Chip-Stack # 9
While . . .
Place 9 has won each time
Chip-Stack # 9 is greater than $ 1
then . . .
Add $ 5 to Place 9
end


will convert to pro later

Well, I wrote quite an extensive help file and have many dozens of free scripts as well as a FAQ on my web site. Plus I stop by here from time to time :-)

However, I have toyed with the idea of doing some videos to show how to do things. What do you think?

Oh my lord, Steen, if you're willing to do video there would be several people who would find that invaluable, I'm sure. Can't encourage you enough. You might even PM Zuga and see if he would pay for that content on WoO or here. You never know...

Here is what I have for WC Pro
seems to be working fine

just remember many settings can be set
on the Auto-Play page in the code.
I do not use that as I use Classic most times.
so set bet as same after win
place bets working on the come out roll
auto correction

just get to know the little ins and outs
have fun

A stand alone book/set of notes/ with video is worth $100 to me.
