So it returns 100% to the player? Always split 'em (Unless the dealer hits soft 17 and surrender is allowed. Then surrender your eights against an ace.)

It was tough. That was only my second craps tournament, and the first didn't go well. When I made it to the final table I had a lot of coaching by tournament experts beforehand. Still, craps tournament strategy is very complicated, and I wasn't sure exactly what the right move was. After the fact a much better tournament player gave a roll by roll analysis of it -- pointing out my many errors.

How does basic craps strategy differ when you play tournament style???

This is probably the closest you will get for an answer. On my browser I had to scroll down btw.

"I spread my bets in such a way that I would advance on anything but a seven. " wow, you'd never ever get advice like that from the Wizard on regular Craps play.

"Baccarat is a game whereby the croupier gathers in money with a flexible sculling oar, then rakes it home. If I could have borrowed his oar I would have stayed." Mark Twain
