\nI want to post this, because I think I’ve given people the idea that I am a rigid 6\/8 leverage player. Up to very recently…a few days ago, really, this has been true. For a long time, I had been trying to figure out how to ease into a game with come bets but still get spread to the vacant box numbers fairly quickly. I think I’ve found my compromise and it is this, by way of example on a $10 table:<\/p>\n
\tThe point is Five.
\n\tPut full odds on the Five.
\n\tCome #1 bet goes to Six
\n\tPut up full odds.
\n\tCome #2 goes to 10.
\n\tPut up full odds.<\/p>\n
\tAt this point full risk is $150. Very similar to my 6\/8 game with full odds on the point if it is not 6\/8. The only advantage you’d have by putting up 6 and 8 for $60 right away is that if one of those hit early, you wouldn’t have had to wait for a come bet to get on the number; however, an early 7 offsets that advantage a bit, in my experience. Can’t speak for the math on that. The play would go something like this:<\/p>\n
\n\tFirst hit, rack the win and make another come bet.
\n\tSo let’s say Hit #1 is Six.
\n\tRack the $70 and make a come bet.
\n\tCome bet goes to Nine. Full odds again. 3 bets on the layout.
\n\tHit #2 is the Five .. the point. Rack the win
\n\tNext come out is the Five again. Full odds back on the Five.
\n\t6 and 8 are now open, so I place $30 on one of those, probably the Six because I just hit it earlier. The hit on the 5 was my second hit.
\n\tSo now I’ve got the same come bets but now an additonal place bet on the Six which I’ll press to $60 when it hits..
\n\tNet full hit is the 10. I rack the win and Place the 10 for $50 and move $30 to the 8. Only the 4 is now open and there are now only 2 come bets that are at the mercy of a comeout 7.
\n\tThe idea is to begin converting especially the inside box numbers beginning with the second ‘natural’ full odds hit.
\n\tThis approach has been giving me 3 – 4, sometimes more rolls, before getting into full risk on the layout. Early 7s don’t kill you like they do when you start with a point with full odds and a $60 6 & 8.<\/p>\n
\tJust thought I’d share this, because it is working. I’m sure some of you are doing something similar, but this seems to be keeping the early risk down but leaving me open for a fat roll. So…have I seen the come betting light? Well…kinda….<\/p>\n
