I heard on a local radio station that Sandia Casino, near Albuquerque, NM has introduced what I believe they are calling "No Vig Craps." They stated that they are offering free Buy bets on the 4 and 10, much like Santa Ana Star Casino offers, near Bernalillo, NM. I have yet to confirm it, and don't know of any, if at all, particulars. However, I will try to get out there later this week to see what the story is. This would be very nice to Albuquerque residents, as it is a shorter drive (albeit, neither is too long) than to Bernalillo.

I played craps for an hour on this past Friday(13th) at Sandia.

They were still paying 9:5 on the 4&10 place bets with buying allowed at $20.

Hopefully it happens soon so they are more competitive with Route 66 and Santa Ana Star which both have free buys on the 4&10 at $5.
I don't know everything but I know a lot.

Nice to hear the Route 66 has the free Buy bet, as well. I don't do much gambling in Albuquerque, thus, I was unaware of the free Buy bet there, as well, at $5.00. I will try to find out as soon as I can. Want to say the commercial ran, either Friday evening, or Saturday evening.

The website has not been updated to indicate that there is now a limit:
Enjoy the best odds in New Mexico including free buy on the four and 10, the best prop bets in the US and 10X odds!
The table has the words free buy stenciled on to the 4 and 10.

The video says that a 2 or a 12 on the field bet pays 3:1, so there is no house advantage on that bet either. I presume that bet is also limited to $5.

So you could make a free field bet, a free buy on the 4/10, and 10x odds on the pass or don't pass line. That's a lot of action with no house advantage.

I don't think anyone has ever stated there was a limit of $5.00 on the free Buy bet. I think we're all just looking to get the bet for the lowest possible price our bankroll can handle. I know that I don't want to start off with anything more than $5, even at a fair bet. I know that I have increased my Buy bet at Santa Ana, and still had the free Buy bet.

Ok so... they have a free buy on the 4/10 but only on $5 bets.

Can someone tell me what they give you if you just say "Give me a 4 and 10". I'm wondering if you have to explicitly state "buy" or they just assume that you're placing it for a 9:5 payout.

A buy bet should always have the word "buy" used by the bettor and the dealer should use a "buy" lammer.

Let us review that, to my knowledge, no one has stated there is a limit of $5 on the free Buy of the 4 and 10. One only needs to review klimate10's post to see he was betting $250 on each of the numbers, at least, at Santa Ana. I know that I have placed Buy bets of $10 on each the 4 and 10 and had them pay $20. I will try to assess the particulars at Sandia, later this week. It is also good to know that Route 66 is also offering the free Buy bet.

I will not dispute FleaStiff, as I know he is correct. However, at Santa Ana I have said just that, "Give me the 4 and 10" and been paid 2:1 when the bet came in.

Also, someone had asked about the Field bet. I don't play it, but saw some young-uns playing it for more than $5 and getting paid with no house advantage. Too much action for me, what with a decision made on every roll. It's bad enough I was playing the Pass Line along with the Buy bet.

do you know how many craps players are suffering
field bets costing 2.78% or 5.56% on their local tables?!
the field is a zero edge bet in these NM casinos.
how in the world is a zero edge bet too much action?
i would be in heaven if i could make zero edge bets all day.
you do not have to make the bet on every roll.
you can opt to just make it occasionally and still have the zero edge.
for the sake of all of us, please throw a nickel out every once in a while?
i know it can be exhausting bending down to pick up those chips but you can do it!
thanks

I misread about the $5 thing, just yeah misread it.

If I can make my way down there I would really like the free 4/10, it's my favorite way to play. Back during a day trip to Vegas I was down a grand and it brought me back to more manageable losses. I can't play it locally because we always pay the vig. and that just pisses me off.

Well thank you, but in reality there is always some "slop" in a craps game and while it is quite correct that a player should say "buy" when he means "buy" and a dealer should acknowledge the word "buy" with the word "buy" or "bought", we all know some slack always creeps into the procedures.

Its the same thing as when a player says 'odds on my Don't' but the dealer actually makes a LAY bet because the math is better for the player.

What is desirable is precision and often what is practicable is a bit less so often a player will say "give me" and the dealer will choose between a place bet and a buy bet according to the math and the player's obvious intent to have bought the 4 and 10 commission free than to have merely placed them.

Its the same way with those "buy" lammers... often they do not get positioned but the bets still get paid off as buy bets.

Its not quite the precise communication that would be desired but its about as close as "real world" situations permit.

When is this ever the case? Those laid odds get paid true/fair odds for each number (1:2, 2:3, 5:6 on the 4&10, 5&9, 6&8 respectively). The lay bet would pay the same exact odds, minus the vig. But I'm pretty tired.

I'll cover it. (A bit off-topic, but just to follow up on FleaStiff's comment) Clearly, laying odds against your Don't must be a better deal than lay-betting against box numbers, since the Don't @ e.v. = -1.4% + odds laid @ e.v. = 0% must combine to some e.v. << 1%, whereas (even if we assume a refund of $1 for any lay-bet box number which rolls before 7) the average e.v. for laying across ($41, $31, $25, etc.) comes to -1.87% -- considerably higher.

I am with you on no edge bets. However, I would suspect that most of us want to play with action on every roll. I looked at it as a decision made, perhaps, what, 3 rolls per minute = 180 rolls per hour. Last time I played, I was the only shooter for the better part of an hour. That, and I am no math-head, could lead to a lot of variance. At $5 per roll, that is about $900.00 per hour put into action. Granted, zero advantage is nice, but wow! Next time I go, I may consider devoting one portion of my bankroll specific for Field betting.

Here is what I notice about the Buy bet placement, at least at Santa Ana, it is not put in the Point Box, but rather as a Place Bet. No lammer is used, since you are talking about "slop." I tend to say, "Buy the 4 and 10", but have, as stated, on occasion asked to be given the 4 and 10.

Again, I hope I am correct in stating that we would like to see a free Buy bet with the lowest denomination allowed (some of us don't have big bankrolls) with no limit, allowing us to increase bets as we win. I have PM'd ten2win asking him to clarify what transpires at Rt. 66. I know it's a free Buy bet at Santa Ana for more than $5, as I have experienced it.

ten2win has confirmed, via PM, that there is no limit at Rt. 66, other than the table limits.

I have yet to make it to Sandia to find out the particulars there.

Hope this helps.

Very rarely but it has been done. At the Santa Ana Star, during a hot roll, when the shooter 7s out...the table games manager will call "No-Roll" pay out the wrong way players, and leave all the right side bettors money up and let the shooter continue to roll. Pretty sweet huh?

ahh.. a way of enticing players to play something more than buy 4/10 and Field.
(ie: play more than the 0% house edge bets)

whats the definition of 'hot' roll? or is it up to the table mgr's discretion?

Last time it was called it was about a 30min. roll...players had their bets pressed up pretty big. The 7 showed...table game manager causally called "no-roll" and the rolled continued. Another player told me they have been on the table three times when the "no-roll" was called.

It's not radically different from 100X or 1000X free odds. Technically you can argue that someone could go to Santa Ana and play all night making nothing but 0% bets, but how much different is that in dollars of EV from someone going to Riviera and making $5 pass line bets and 1000X odds bets all night.

The casino knows that people will go to this obscure casino in New Mexico that otherwise wouldn't go. The craps table must fill up so these people will play single 0 roulette, or some other game.

I imagine most people on a hot streak from 0% HE games will eventually put some money down on prop bets just for fun.

Maybe not much different in EV but to me the difference is enormous; for the one you could show up with a bankroll in the 100s, the other requires thousands ...10s of thousands in the 1000x case.

EV, schmee-vee at 100x or more odds

it'd be something if the word gets out that a casino can do this, get a lot of free publicity, but have it cost them very little as the players don't know how to take advantage [if, of course, this is actually the case]. Love to see it spread.

I just planned a NM trip for the summer. I am pretty excited about it!



Give us the dates, JamieV! You are not enjoying this Free Buy Bets on 4 & 10 and occasional "No Rolls" by yourself...

We need to set up a WizardofVegas meetup at this Casino ASAP!



This would be a pretty cool idea. Get a dozen or so of the craps players on this site to meet at one of these Free Buy/Field casinos, for a weekend. Would be a good time.

just out of curiousity, are some of the execs in these NM casinos from the Venetian?

backstory:
a few years ago, a sr vp and 2 vps at the Venetian were fired because they rigged a free raffle for a Mercedes for a whale that lost alot of $. there were banned from working in NV casinos by the NV gaming commision.

all 3 of these execs were hired by an indian casino in either az or nm w/full knowledge of what they've done.

Where are you staying, if you don't mind? It appears you have been here before. Need any suggestions on food? I would like to put myself in the mix to play at the table. Of course, I need to clear it with my wife (no, not what you're thinking, we have a 3 year old and a 3 month old.) I typically do not play at the casinos in NM, as I much prefer Las Vegas. However, with a no-edge game, it's hard to keep passing up.
