SO was playing my normal low limit twice weekly craps game with some buddies at our local tribal casino......It a $1 min 10X odds table.....I do the same buy in every time $150...and always play the same way.....$1 P/L with $4 odds unless the point is a 6 or 8 of course then I play $5 odds......With continuous come bets with odds....I can normally get at least a couple hours play with this low limit low HE playing style and there is always plenty of action with all the come bets....
So anyways bought in for $150.....4 hours later colored up for $835....these are the kind of days I wish I was playing my Vegas betting limits $25 P/L with 3,5,5x's odds.....Oh well its still nice win...even if I was playin dollar craps :).....How come when I'm playing greens and blacks in Vegas I never go on runs like that LMAO

Don't worry about how much you were playing. A good run is a good run!

Hey, I wish I at least could find $1 craps. I would play far more often.

YA you can play $1 P/L bets with 3-4-5x's odds....playing max odds of ever off of $100......for hours....What I find funny is...and its purely just a coincidence..But if im playing $5 dollar min table with $5 P/L bets and playing max odds on a 3-4-5x's table...with a bankroll of $500......It seems I get felted in a hour all the time...BUT if Im playing the same game but the min is $1 and I have a $100 bankroll I can play all night LOL

Have you ever tried maxing your odds. This might have been one day to do it. In some casinos all you have available to you is 2x or 5x or 3x4x5x. If you can do 10x I'd go for it even if time at table dips a bit.Quote: vert1276$1 P/L with $4 odds unless the point is a 6 or 8 of course then I play $5 odds......With continuous come bets with odds....
Those clubs in the far reaches of Hendertucky are one dollar craps (most of the time) but they are smokey.
I think a few places around town offer 3.00 craps during the day. Last I heard the Palace in Biloxi guaranteed 3.00 craps Monday thru Thursday, but in general the days of ultra low craps are gone.

I wish I could tell that story. Sounds like a great session-congrats.

What would you say that your percentage of winning sessions is? I'm curious because at a low limit table it would be fun to play continuous come bets but it seems that it would be hard to stay ahead since there is always the potential to have all numbers covered and then seven out. It would take quite a few wins to recover it would seem.

Well FleaStiff....My bankroll is the issue why I only play 4x's odds on the 4,5,9 and 10 and 5x's on the 6 and 8.......Because I want to stay around a $5 bet......This is becasue my bankroll is only $150......becasue that's all my wife will let me take twice a week to go play craps and have some beers with friends LOL.........When in Vegas....I am a normal $25-$50 P/L bettor with full odds.......which pisses my wife off to no end that I Wire down 15-20K for a 3 day weekend in Vegas haha........So when Im at home she limits me to $150 twice a week.....So by playing only 4x and 5x's odds I can make my money last....Or I could just get a divorce LOL

My percentage of winning sessions is low LOL.......It would be MUCH higher if I was to walk away when I hit a win limit like 50% or 100% of my buy in....BUT...truth be told I really dont care if I win or lose.....of course I would much rather win. But...Im really just there to have some beers and shots with my friends and have some fun....$150 is less money than I would spend if we all went out to dinner with bar tabs so I just chalk it up as a win even if I bust out my whole bankroll LOL......I play until I bust out or 4 hours......I would say about 30% I bust out before 4 hours about 20% of the time I walk away a winner....and 50% I walk away losing some of my bankroll after 4 hours......so about 80% loser and 20$ winner LOL

Wow, must be a helluva table!
I usually play at a $2 table with 3/4/5 (I take $4 odds though) and I can go through $100 QUICK, just by playing the passline! Although, I'm sure it's probably the worst table in Reno

Well I guess it come down to what you define as "quick".......$6 bet per point......15-18 points per hour on average on a full table....you would have to go 0 for 17 on your passline bets just to go broke in 1 hour.....I bet even if the dice were running cold making only 20% of your points....you would last 2 to 3 hours......So I guess my question is what do you define as "quick"?

Tried the DP? There is a table like this at the Atlantic City Hilton every time I've been there. So I just started playing the dark side on that table.
Gambling is a metaphor for life. Hang around long enough and it's all gone.

If you were playing 5 count, the results could have been somewhat different. At the very least your money would have lasted longer.
Better luck next time. Cheers

Another alternative might be to treat it like baccarat and bet with the trend. Although to avoid a chop, it might be a good idea to use the result from the roll before last.
