I started playing craps on 3/28. It was the day I took my Mother for her 84th birthday to Atlantic City for 3 days. In fact, it was more or less a Casino-cation as we went to Atlantic City for 3 days, Foxwoods, Mohegan Sun, and then hit Twin River 3 times. I own and operate my own sports probability company so the most I did before starting my adventure into playing Craps was watch a few videos, review the probability tables, drown myself in a few systems, and then visit the tables.
I made $1,200 in Atlantic City, $1,800 in Foxwoods, $900 in Mohegan Sun, $500, $700 and $600 in Twin River (all rough averages minus the nickels and dimes) in my casino-cation stretch. In case you are wondering, it was roughly $5,500 - $5,700 over that stretch. I became hooked, obviously. Any time you make that amount of money over a period of 2 weeks you get hooked. Add to the fact that the craps table is loud, entertaining and filled with many strategies, it just begins to win you over.
Over the course of the last 5 weeks I've won close to $8,000 net now. I've had exactly 3 losing sessions but the main reason I've won is because I've weathered the momentum swings and patiently waited for the hot roller. I've become so hooked that I'm starting to go every night now. I've built a ruby application using atmospheric noise generation for random numbers and have built 10,000,000 sequence tests to understand and gauge momentum. Everyone seems to digress deeply into the math and probability factors that I don't hear many people truly discuss the momentum and hot roller probabilities that often.
My system is a strange offshoot of a 6/8 builder press with concentration on placing the 5 first after a win and pressing until I have a 25/30/30 - 10 field iron cross in play. I keep a pen and pad in hand and turn off my line/field after I've received 4 consecutive field wins or 3 field wins + 1 line win. Instead of waiting x number of rolls I monitor the paper. I want the roller to get to #14. If a roller gets to #14, he or she appears to get to 19 or 20 with relative ease. If the roller gets to roll #20, they get to roll #24 with relative ease. The toughest roll over is #29. 29 or 30 seems to hit the 7 on a long roll quite often. If they hit the 7 and I'm off, I restart the sequence. Once I'm at the 30/30/30/15 cross mark, I start placing and pressing until I have all of the numbers. I then remove the field from play and keep the line going.
I've also paid close attention to the idea and concept behind control shooting. I've watched the elders, the people that set dice, and watched the golden touch craps videos. I even practiced several hours trying to see if I could do something similar. Well, I actually found a great technique that works very well. I'm currently on a 4-day stretch of 7 30-min+ rolls using this odd technique. The main concept behind it is understanding that perhaps there is a patterned order in the universe and maybe just maybe all of those random rolls have a sense of purpose and timing.
My technique:
I roll the dice in front of me gently until the top two numbers and the side-two numbers in view are not a 7. I put them together quickly and backspin them across the table (from any vantage point) gently. I always attempt to avoid chips and try to keep the dice in the middle and along an axis. You would think that this would just be another random roll and perhaps it is. But, it's actually working. I encourage anyone to test it out and try it. I don't think it has anything to do with me at all. I think all I'm doing is upsetting the balance of randomness on the dice. When I used to set the dice and practice gently rolling them on an axis, it gave me about a 2-30 roll sequence. Using my new system, I've been averaging 9-79. Currently 79 rolls is my longest (I keep a paper copy).
I've been hitting Twin River a lot now and I'm going back tomorrow.
A little bit about me before I ask my questions. First, I have a photographic memory and extremely high perception. I'm not sure if this helps make me an advantage player or not, but I sometimes feel like Nostradamus when I'm on the table. My buddy went with me last night and out of the blue I tossed a $50 dollar horn high Twelve and he hit a Twelve winning me $570. He looked at me said, how the hell did you know that? I said, I saw it. I saw it in my head. It makes me wonder whether or not we can become so focused on a momentum based event that perhaps we can see something at a table. At least, in my small opinion, I believe we can never know the answers to this. It's like the woman who had cancer and won the lottery twice. Sometimes it's just something that goes unexplained.
Questions:
1. How often do you win at craps? I'm winning more than 80% of the time. Is it rare? Is it also just part of the larger momentum swing or am I just feeling the 7s and turning my lines off at the right times?
2. Have you ever felt like Nostradamus or been so focused on the game that you really do feel certain numbers getting ready to hit? Do you catch them a lot?
3. When you roll the dice, not withstanding multiple techniques you may try to use, do you find that you seemingly hit the same numbers? For me the 9 hits a lot. And, I mean a lot!! It goes well beyond the math even. The 9 is hitting over 17%, surpassing the 7 hit rate when I'm rolling. I find that extremely odd over this duration.
4. What should you do when you are playing the right-way and 5 or more people at the table are playing the dark side? Should I find another table? I've tried to upset those guys buy yelling the numbers. If the set point is an 8, I yell "44 shooter, c'mon shooter. Roll a 44!! You can do it. Use the force! 44!!!" I don't really care if it annoys them. The dealers seem to be chuckling and I'm a happy kind of guy. I play relaxed even though I'm ultra competitive. I refuse to play dark side. It's not me and throws my vibe off.

Do you have any questions for me?
For those of you who read all of this, I appreciate it. I love this game and as a true geek and math wiz, some things go way beyond the standard probability on paper.

1. Rare. Not unheard of. 20% is also rare. Not unheard of.
2. No. When you predict a number y you will be right x/36 of the time where x is the number of ways you can roll y. That said, it is prone to variance. Get yourself tested for ESP. See a psychoanalyst. Get tested. Be bummed when you find out that you, like everyone else, is f***ked in the head.
3. No. You are experiencing variance.
4. Do whatever you want!!! Scream "Ca-Caw" at the top of your lungs. Pray to your favorite deity or their foe. Do the rain dance. Do the chicken dance. Do the Macarena. Doesn't matter. My particular strategy as a right-side better is to throw the dice at their chips and laugh maniacally when I knock over their stack with the point or the come-out 7-11. The dealers don't like it but who cares! Give them a toke or two with your 80% success rate!

You sir, are not a math wiz. There are adjectives to describe you, but the rules forbid me from using them.
You've had a bit of luck: it will pass.
The response you, a new member, have received to your post is indicative as to how most board members view the subjects you've raised: this is a math-based board where claims of seeming advantage will be dissected ad infinitum.
Your post leads me to conclude you will find a warmer reception, at least by kindred souls, at a different board, one devoted to dice setting and superstition.
They're out there: google them and good luck at the casinos.
You're welcome to remain at this board, of course, but expect to be mocked if you continue to post such as you have done.
Rough crowd.
I don't know, it's not the board it used to be. Wizard is personable enough, but doesn't seem to have the same zip-in-flip and skip-in-dip.

Virtually all gamblers aren't into any math, let alone gambling math. Especially, not online slot players. I wonder if the Odds site is as dead as Alan Mendelson's bestbuys site where he commits his own gambling articles after showing them first on his main gambling site.
Anyway, Joel, don't be bullied from doing something you enjoy.
I submit to you that learning the math behind the game and familiarizing yourself with the concepts of "gambler's fallacy" and "confirmation bias" will stand you in good stead.
I give you points for the long writing. It's nice to read that people are winning.
But keep going every night and you will need a lot of luck. Good LUCK!

Yes, it is a type of trolling to do that and we really get it here at this site [esp baccarat trolls doing that]
I'm not saying this guy's guilty, but in case he is, he's not fooling anybody. I'm sure I speak for most when I say the absence of the 'trolling' charge, for the most part, comes from trying to be polite to the new member. On the other hand, this is one reason I don't come out with all that "welcome, welcome, welcome!!!" BS every time. If your first post is bragging about how wonderful you are, that's rude too in its own way, and forgivable only for the socially oblivious.

I wouldn't worry about this. I've been a dark side player for years and I can't remember the last time I found myself playing with 4 other wrong ways at the table.

I appreciate some of the kind replies. I really don't get upset from seeing any of the negative replies either. I am in the above average group where having thick skin is concerned. I'm sure many of the negative replies are from people that have been playing this or some other game for years. You do that long enough and it probably hits a nerve or two when someone does well.
I took my wife with me on Sunday and I had a hot roll the first time out and thought about going home but said, what the hell. Ended up losing $1,400 on the second round of play. Went back last night after saying you can't win them all. Won $1,100 and went home.
Yeah, I'm pretty much hooked on the game now. I'll keep playing until football season. My specialty is sports probability and forecasting for College/NFL. I own and operate (website removed by mod). Craps is an entertaining game and that's why I like it. Football is my life and that's why I invest in it.
Appreciate it.
Quote: AxelWolfphotographic memory and he chooses craps. Facepalm!!
I don't think you'll understand completely Axel unless you are able to see it. It's more than the thrill of neurons firing on all cylinders. Games that move rapidly allow me to clear my head a bit. I can throw up to $3k a night on this game and it wouldn't create a dent in my reality. I invest in sports probability and the market. Craps is no different than me tossing $300 on a nice dinner twice a week. I do it because I enjoy it and because I can.
When I'm playing craps I concentrate on the following:
1. Programming (actively programming code is first priority as I'm always building something).
2. Where the waitresses are. (I want my drink!)
3. Bouncing the dice to knock the cigar out of the old fart's hand at the end of the table (if I'm rolling).
4. The game.
5. What AxelWolf is doing right now. (no really, I'm always thinking about this when I'm playing... honest!!)

I don't have a big problem with your post Joel... If you're getting lucky, great, and you certainly should celebrate. The only problem I have is you call yourself a math wiz and yet you clearly do not understand the math behind the game you're playing. Otherwise you'd know that every bet you're placing has a negative expectation and no combination of these negative bets will make them positive. Thus, you're clearly not a math wiz, and thus I highly highly doubt your "AP" abilities when it comes to anything else, such as your plugged sports site which I will not be visiting as a result.

I fully understand and know the probabilities of all wagers in the game of craps. I've already built my own craps application which utilizes atmospheric noise for generating random dice rolls. Because, as you should already know, you cannot achieve any true random result in math. As for my comments on why I like craps and why I like sports investment, that's just me sharing how I feel about the two topics. If I mentioned that I own and operate a sports probability site and don't provide any link, the next most likely scenario is that someone will ask me what site? So, I provided an answer based off of expectation.
No one has to visit any link I post. I use real advertising a month before football season begins. Forums don't generally help with traffic generation. Unless, of course, it's a very large dedicated football community site - which this one isn't.
I don't have to prove to you or anyone else whether or not I'm a genius. You are 100% unique in this universe, as am I. You form your own opinions through your own unique perspective. All I can say is that you are incorrect in your rush to judgement and it's okay to be a flawed part of this social forum's paradigm.

What percentage of people in your type of business use the following scam?
The scammer gets 100 contacts and gives 50 of them a tip what team will win, and 50 of them a tip the other team will win.
He will have 50 people he's given a winning tip. Now probably also for free 25 get another tip, 25 the opposite tip.
Now he has 25 happy prospects; he can go for 13 more next round, but its time to start charging for this extremely valuable information!
By the time he's down to 5 or 6 things could be quite lucrative.

To answer your first post, I don't wager for other people. Our services aren't built like this. We have 3 monthly subs ($10/$15/$20) which is smaller than any competitors in the market. When someone signs up to the $10 in the first year, I automatically bring them up to the $20 sub profile for free because I want them to see all of the tools. I've kind of gone back and forth on the whole thing and thought about just offering a one-price model. In the end, it probably works best. A marketing friend of mine once told me that I reminded him of the geniuses that come out of Silicon Valley. I build a great toolset, offer fantastic services, give great attention to detail on how to use everything and then completely flop at trying to market things. I am not a great marketing person or a salesman.
Our services are built around 5 independent systems (using 5 different algorithms) to create probability scenarios/outcomes. Once those are properly measured and garbage data is reduced, it gets incorporated into a risk mark system called LPR (Loss Profile Ratings). The higher the LPR score for a team/game, the higher the probability they will win. We have regression models that are tested weekly, in-season yearly, 3-year marks and 5-year marks. The 5-year marks really only benefit the NFL and the 3-year marks benefit College.
If anyone is interested in how the tools work, just register on the site, PM me your email, and I'll give you a free subscription for this year. You can play with every feature of the site all season long. The only thing I'd ask for is "feedback". I don't care if the feedback is positive or negative. My main goal is to constantly update and refine the tools and features so that it is very easy to work with game time scenarios.
A lot of the subscribers we have like things but you won't see me post a bunch of quotes from people saying how my system saved their life, blah, blah, blah. You decide for yourself whether there's any benefit to using the tools. Afterall, I just said I'd make it free the first year. And, I even showed my price model (which is absurdly low).

hmmmm this morning I had my $6 6 pressed all the way to $42. I threw the dice and it landed on 6 for a second then it flipped over to a 7. Do you think it could have been the humidity that made that happen?
So, this is what they mean by a floating craps game? =)Quote: MathExtremist
How is putting up a bunch of relatively simple math which neither helps players (truly) win, helps players quit, nor talks about everyday gambling experiences with everyday gamblers, for the purpose of "unanimously" advertising for a bunch of thus "approved" online casinos not a form of the hustle?Quote: odiousgambitSeen it a million times with these swami types - they'd be getting rich except for stuff like that, then they have to work some hustle to make ends meet
The lack of humidity in today's casinos surely has chased away the babes in swim suits.Quote: JoemanSo, this is what they mean by a floating craps game? =)Quote: MathExtremist
The Feathered One not happy now. Boxers in a bunch, is that the term? Not my job, I go now. No smiley winky ending.Quote: JoelDezeTo answer your first post, I don't wager for other people. Our services aren't built like this. We have 3 monthly subs ($10/$15/$20) which is smaller than any competitors in the market. When someone signs up to the $10 in the first year, I automatically bring them up to the $20 sub profile for free because I want them to see all of the tools. I've kind of gone back and forth on the whole thing and thought about just offering a one-price model. In the end, it probably works best. A marketing friend of mine once told me that I reminded him of the geniuses that come out of Silicon Valley. I build a great toolset, offer fantastic services, give great attention to detail on how to use everything and then completely flop at trying to market things. I am not a great marketing person or a salesman.
Our services are built around 5 independent systems (using 5 different algorithms) to create probability scenarios/outcomes. Once those are properly measured and garbage data is reduced, it gets incorporated into a risk mark system called LPR (Loss Profile Ratings). The higher the LPR score for a team/game, the higher the probability they will win. We have regression models that are tested weekly, in-season yearly, 3-year marks and 5-year marks. The 5-year marks really only benefit the NFL and the 3-year marks benefit College.
If anyone is interested in how the tools work, just register on the site, PM me your email, and I'll give you a free subscription for this year. You can play with every feature of the site all season long. The only thing I'd ask for is "feedback". I don't care if the feedback is positive or negative. My main goal is to constantly update and refine the tools and features so that it is very easy to work with game time scenarios.
A lot of the subscribers we have like things but you won't see me post a bunch of quotes from people saying how my system saved their life, blah, blah, blah. You decide for yourself whether there's any benefit to using the tools. Afterall, I just said I'd make it free the first year. And, I even showed my price model (which is absurdly low).
