\nWent to a near by casino and played craps for about three hours. I noticed all of the available tables were full but one. Went over to play on the open table and noticed it was a $25.00 minimum table. Don’t usually play on such a table. Try to stay to $10.00 or $15.00 tables. Considering I wasn’t left with any alternative I decided to play. I was the only player at the table and positioned myself at the SL1. Tossing for 7’s on come out with use of 4,3, top and 2,5 facing. The plan was to hit those 7’s on come out and hope for 4 or 10 to show. I was hitting one or two sevens and then a 4 or 10 would show. The first point number was a hard ten and then came an easy ten on the next toss. Hit one seven and then a easy four. Tossed the dice again and hit a five. Once more, and hit a hard four with $5.00 on the hard four. I hit the 10 point three times and the 4 twice almost back to back on each toss. I hit an eleven and then a six for point. I couldn’t hit that darn six for nothing. I hit every other number but the six while trying to hit the six. Finally sevening out and moved to another table.
\n\t I decided to watch for an open position at some of the other tables. A couple of friends called me over to there table to shoot the dice. I told then there’s no room. One of the guys moved over and made room for me. It was tighter then a can of sardines at his table. My friend shot and made two points and then sevened out. He told me to shoot the dice. I said, no. He said, why not ? I told him that I didn’t want him to lose his money. Then him and some of his other friends kept telling me to shoot the dice. I was being yelled at from across the table to shoot the dice. I gave it a shot with just a passline bet. I came out with an easy ten and then came back with a hard ten after three tosses. I hit a five for the next number. Then came a regular 8, then hard 8, hard 6,hard 6, hard 4, 11, hard 10, and then sevened out. I tried my luck at another table and did terrible. Seven, Seven. I dicided to leave and go home. I got a little lucky but not enough. <\/p>\n

\tI’m excited about taking another class soon. I need to get better.<\/p>\n

Sounds like one of the best things you can do as an advantage player you already did, that was to NOT play when conditions aren’t right. <\/p>\n

\tYou know you’re an AP when yu drive two hours to a casino, then find out that conditions aren’t good, you get back in your car and drive right back home. <\/p>\n

\tGood Job!<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Pitboss, you are absolutely right. I wasn’t good enough on that day. Made a few dollars. All my sevens were 6 &1.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

EE, not sure why it’s doom and gloom, if you were at a $25 and if you are buying the 10 and 4 and hitting them as many times as you did, press at least once you should have walked away with hundreds in your bank roll!! I’d be happy with those numbers any day.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

I didn’t bet the 4 and 10. Just playing the passline bet. I was trying to warm up and hoping a spot would open up at a cheaper table. You are right. I should have bet big on the 4 and 10. One day, I’m going to go to one of these casino’s with deep pockets and have a roll of a life time. The casino will lose a lot of money on that day. \ud83d\ude09 MarkM3, some people can’t win at craps because they are not in a good mental state ( happy, smile, feeling good). I have always won when I was in a good mood.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

EE I totally agree with you, SOOO very much of this game is about what’s between your ears \ud83d\ude0e<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
