I am not disciplined enough to be a don't player. Last night i had $15 on the dont's, and I laid $300. Point was 8. This guy rolled for it had to have been a half hour. He had to have rolled 10 9's, and 6 10's and 6 4's! I finally chickened out and removed my $300 lay and he immediately 7'd out. My irrational thinking was "If this guy is rolling all of those difficult outside numbers, he's got to make the 8!" I was wrong!

You were wrong, but not because he 7'd out.

Just to clarify. The $15 flat bet stayed on. I picked up the $300 lay that was next to my bet

Would you buy his don't pass odds after he picked them up in that situation even after such a long session without resolution? (I get the AP play right after the point is established)
Just curious.

I think you made a good decision.... What we do is based on the best information we have at the time. at
that time the guy was on a good roll and it did not make a lot of sense to bet $300 he would not make an 8.
Now he made a seven and all you made was $15.... beat the hell out of losing $300
I would have made that decision long before you did....

If I knew before hand that he would pick it up, I would give him an amount equal to the bet. If it wins, I get the bet and the winnings. If it loses, I only lose what I paid the player. So yes I would. Past results are meaningless.

I've seen guys have a $100 flat bet on the don't pass against the 10 and then take it down!
I know a guy that bets $30 on the donts and then has an $18 6 and an $18 8. He takes his $30 dont bet down after he breaks even for the roll. I'm endorsing this strategy.
A lay bet I'd a bet with 0 house advantage but also 0 player advantage, so the only bet that your hurting yourself to pull is the flat bet after the point has been establised

i assume the number is not the 6 or 8 so why doesn';t he just place the other number for 30 and either win 12 or 29

I've tried telling him that but I've given up. Some people have there own "system" that they are comfortable with and they will never change

I have the same problem. Last night I bet against a shooter because the entire table was going cold and he kept rolling and rolling until he finally made his point. After losing my don't bet with odds, I decided to bet across. I'm glad I switched it up because he rolled at least 30 more numbers.

As a don't player I can't tell you the times the dealers have looked at me like I am crazy when I tell them I want my don't come bet moved to the 6 or 8. I've had several dealers not even ask me what I wanted to do and left my don't come bet when a 6 or 8 was rolled, instead of moving it to the 6 or 8. I'll take the advantage anytime I can get it, even if it is small.
