Minimum $1, maximum $25. Make 3 points to earn anything. The wins can be all the same number and not all different like the firebet. Last Sunday I came to a table where the shooter was in the midst of making 7 numbers on the sharpshooter. It payed 50 to 1. A lady at the end of the table had $20 on him!<\/p>\n<p>\tBy the way the &quot;generous&quot; casinos here pay a whole $299 if you hit the firebet for all 6 numbers. Imagine that!! And they get a lot of action on it too.<br \/>\n\tDisgusting. Maximum is $5 wager in most places on the firebet.<\/p>\n<p>\tI have only wagered on the Sharpshooter bet a couple of times because it is a bad bet. Maybe $5 a year.<\/p>\n<p>\tYou can see on-line &quot;The Wizard of Odds&quot; for a lot of info on all craps bets.<\/p>\n<p>\tGood rolling<\/p>\n<p>\tOMC<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> TheLion on December 9, 2013, 5:06 pm<\/p>\n<div>I really like the sharpshooter bet &#8212; just keep hitting the 6 &amp; 8 as points and hit them later to count as the sharpshooter win if 3 points are hit.   Not that hard if you can keep hitting the 6 &amp; 8.<\/p>\n<p>\tBTW, I hit 2 five-point fire bets in the past week &#8212; I had the 6th point (it was the 8) set-up for $5K , but could not hit it (i sevened-out with a 4\/3 roll).  I laid $480 against it and had a $50 hard 8 to hedge it further, so my net win was $350 plus the $1250&#8230;&#8230;less $200 for the 5th point hedge (total net win = $1400)&#8230;&#8230;if that makes sense <\/p>\n<p>\tAnd &quot;The Princess&quot; hit 2 four-point fire bets over the Thanksgiving Holiday<\/p>\n<p>\tBeen a GREAT year for us<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> Randman on December 11, 2013, 3:44 am<\/p>\n<div>You guys make a great team.
