Lets say you went to the casino once a day.
And you could only place one bet and then leave.
On the craps table what would that one bet be?
one bet. win or lose. place it then leave.

Assuming "pass with odds" counts as multiple bets, I'd bet Don't Pass (or Don't Come if there's a point).

For arguments sake to counter your reply lets assume no gas involved. We live in the house next to the casino.

ditto. the odds (or lay in this case) would indeed be a 2nd bet but if your hypothetical would allow it, i would lay the house max or the max that i could afford...tom "home runs are often boring" p

I'd wait until a point is established.
Then I'd hop the 4-3.

can you explain why you want to make only 1 bet per day? I have seen promotions where you had to make a visit and st least bet per day for 30 days and you received a bonus.

That's a bit overboard what's wrong with living next to a casino if you don't have a gambling problem? Especially if you had an advantage.Quote: ahiromuWhat a horrible place to live.
Back when Palms had the FPWD progressive with mail, drawings and promotions. They have a decent gated apartment complex right behind it. Assuming a guy was retired, I can imagine that would be a perfect situation. Add someone skilled at poker and it's even better.

That may be the best question asked on here. Since every bet is a game against
the casino with a HA , one bet is better than many, unless its HA is higher than
cumulative HA on all your bets working. Say a horn bet against a 6 & 8.
If you were very close to a casino so the cost of the drive was not a problem
I would watch the table a tad to make sure something unusual was not going on, and
i would wait for a line win and a next pass point of 5 or 9 and lay the point.
A win pays me about 71.4% if my lay and there is only a 19% chance on average of
the guy making a second point.
I have not put this on a simulator... but I bet it would do better than most ways of play

a few examples would be nice for what IS unusual to youQuote: dicesitterI would watch the table a tad to make sure something unusual was not going on,
that 19% is B4 (s)he has made the first point, of courseQuote: dicesitteri would wait for a line win and a next pass point of 5 or 9 and lay the point.
A win pays me about 71.4% if my lay and there is only a 19% chance on average of
the guy making a second point.
once the point is made AND you lay the 5 or 9 (YES!)
you now have a 40% chance to lose that Lay bet (4/10)
unless you are me, and how could you B,
where i only have abouts a 33% chance to lose that Lay 5 or 9 bet
i am really so lucky with my bet selection timing and shooter point qualifier method!
you bet HOW MUCH?Quote: dicesitterI have not put this on a simulator... but I bet it would do better than most ways of play
dicesetter
no need to simulate i say, but simulation IS fun
how about simple math and hit the craps table (1+1=2)
BTW,
do not be like the single Mom from Utah (was on April 2, 2015)
she was not supposed to be in a casino but still managed to
smash Grandma Pats world craps hand record of 154 rolls
it (the worlds record) looks like it now stands at 163 rolls!

Sally,
This is the second time I have seen mention of a 163 roll record but can't find it through google. Do you have a link to the story, I really want to read it but keep coming up empty. I might be searching wrong. Thank you.

I just wanted to Guage what peoples favorite bets to make was on craps
If you could only place 1 bet it would be a bet someone was confident in.
So was just curious
Im learning the ins and outs
Can someone explain to me why after a point is made placing the 5 and 9 is a good idea?
Wouldnt placing the 6 and 8 be a better idea

Sally,
When I go to the Fox 411 connect site, the article next to the picture of George Harrison states the following:
A guitar George Harrison played at a time when Beatlemania was taking flight has sold for nearly half a million dollars at a New York auction.
Music
Harrison guitar brings in big bucks
George Harrison guitar sells for nearly a quarter of a million dollars, and speaks nothing of any 163 rolls in one hand of craps. Can anyone point me in the direction of an article that discusses a Utah woman setting a new record at Craps? Has anyone seen record of this roll and where and when it occurred?

When your looking at the one bet deal, there are a lot of bets one could make such as
buy a 4 or ten with vig paid on win.... great bet. smaller HA than laying the 5 or 9
which is 3.23 % or laying the 6 or 8 which has a ha of 4%.
The five and nine works for me because of the combination of events....
19% chance a shooter gets two points in a row..... that means 81% chance he
wont...and I get paid 71.4 of my lay.... good spread for me
I don't like laying the 4 or 10 because for every loss I almost have to win two times
to break even, and I wont lay the 6 or 8.
The reason I would not play the donts......in general is because with the don't pass or don't come
I don't know where the money will be placed before I bet.... when I wait and select the 5 or 9
I am putting it when and where I think I have the best chance to win.

i also tried to find the article againQuote: mason2386Can anyone point me in the direction of an article that discusses a Utah woman setting a new record at Craps? Has anyone seen record of this roll and where and when it occurred?
but no such luck
the page was loading very slowly on my laptop (not unusual for dsl)
that is why i snipped a photo of it
after the page finally loaded, i could not find that article.
i did have 2 tabs open in google chrome so MAYbe one got crossed with the other
that headline for me does not show up when i look for it
i would like to read it also
MAYbe Alan Mendelson wants to do some investigative work on this, he may know people in Utah and Northern Nevada too
this has a fishy smell like like the Captains 148 roll hand record (he was in his 80s)
where no info can also be found on that hand except from a few biased reports from a name that needs to remain unnamed
and my husband and his boss claimed to have been at that table with that woman
that is where i first heard of this super Mom craps hand
still trying to get details of this event
really weird not to want any fame or the casino not to report what took place.
this comes up in a google search
"The Captain is a rarity. I am not. As a writer, a teacher and a speaker, as a former actor, I
crave the public performance. I want a readership, an audience. I like the spotlight on me."
no, no fish for me now, thanks
Sally

I found another article, well headline i guess
it did not click through to a story (huh???)

Are you sure that "spread" relationship is valid? I had always been told that one roll of the dice was independent of the next one(or past one)?

it either loses on a 7 or 11
wins on a 2 or 3
pushes on a 12
and if the next roll is a 4,5,6,8,9 or 10
the choice is now up the player if that number is one that is wanted to bet against
"no action" is an option for any dont player

Yup that's correct, I lose on 11 and I lose on 7 and then if the number is a 6 ,8,4,10 I have to say no
action and expose my bet again to the 7 and 11...
That may make sense to you, but not to me, I will stick with the one bet I suggested (if I was to
only make one bet a day).

If I place a don't pass I have no idea what the don't pass number will be... could be anything... if I place a don't come I could lose on the
7 and 11.... as you know.... I don't want it on the 6 or 8 or 4 or 10... so there are six things that can happen I don't
want..... if I wait to place it on the 5 or 9 after the first point is made , lets say it is the 9...... the only possibility to hurt me is a nine.
why in the world do I want to expose my money to 6 things I don't want as compared to only 1...
In addition it has been you for many months that has been bragging on here that you are the only person you know that is a life time winner
and you did by selecting the point where you placed a bet against the point....
Now maybe you are no longer a life time winner and had a change of "heart" or you just forgot what you have been saying.
Again.... I don't care how you bet or anyone else..... the question was if you were going to make one bet a day what would it
be..... and that is mine.... if some one else has a different bet.,.. great.... it is a hypothetical question to begin with and no one
has to do it.. you don't agree.... pic your own bet.
Betterr yet go to your table and take $1000 dollars and play the don't pass straight up with $100 bet no odds and take
the same $1000 and wait until you make a point and if your next point is 5 or 9 place against
it for $100 and I bet I will
win.
