Ok Forum, Yall are knowledgeable gamblers. What would you do in this situation?
In Craps.....
You have a $5 Fire Bet that pays 1000/1 on all 6 points,250/1 on 5 points, etc. etc.

Boom, the 5th point has just hit and you are guaranteed $1250.Sweet win for a $5 bet. All you have to do is make the 6 now. Next come out is a 6,this is the one we need to hit them all!

Do you........?

Continue playing pass line backed by 10x odds
Or do you lay the 6 for $3000($125 Juice) for a total of $3125? to win $2500
Or do you lay the 6 for $4500($225 Juice) for a total of $4725? to win $3750

If the 6 hits and your lay falls you get $5k for the fire bet.
If the Dirty Dog comes you win your lay bet and the $1250 fire bet payout for 5 points.

I look forward to your comments,

This is an opinion question, just a matter of personal preference. I'll bet so I'm guaranteed an extra 1,000 no matter what. That way I can still root for the point to be hit, but if it doesn't, I made over 2k.

I've hit my walk-away goal at this point, and then some, so why make another negative expectation bet?

If I'm not shooting, no bets after the fifth point is established and made, if I am shooting, minimum Pass Line, no odds.
