They just opened a new Burger &amp; Shakes grab &amp; go joint. Everyone with a Players Card got a coupon for 2 free meals so that&#8217;s been burnin&#8217; a hole in my pocket. I talked Rob into going up there for supper tonight so I could use my coupon.  Of course, we strolled by the craps table (only one of 3 open at $10) &amp; our spots (SL-1 &amp; 2) were open&#8230;that was a sign that we should give it a try.  Bought in for $100 each&#8230;kinda&#8217; got cold feet after a complete blow-up awful night last night in Harrington&#8230;UGH. 12&#8242; felt table &amp; nice height.  Ever heard of a feature bet called &quot;Hot Rolls&quot; where the shooter has to roll a min of 2 numbers in all combinations (3+1 and 2+2 to make the 4, etc). We&#8217;ve never seen it on any other table, even in LV or AC.  The payoff for 2 Hot Rolls is 5-to-1 and it goes up to 6 Hot Rolls for 200-to-1. You can bet up to $25 on it but I only put down $1 &amp; Rob put down $2 plus $1 for the dealers.  Again, gun-shy about pressing too much given the recent debacle. So Rob rolled for about 50 minutes, 46 rolls &amp; made all 6 numbers of Hot Rolls. Unknown number of points but I do know that he hit all 6 numbers at least once so if the table had featured Fire Bets instead of Hot Rolls, he&#8217;d have another 6 pointer&#8230;2 in 2 months. The $3 made us $600 and another $200 for the dealers.  Major Applause &amp; lots of cheering!! Our $200 buy-in garnered us $1,560 clear&#8230;that&#8217;s awesome for us because we bet very conservatively&#8230;too little, so we&#8217;ve been told by numerous dealers\/bankers.  We colored up and floated to the cashier&#8217;s cage. What did we do next?  Went to cash-in our coupon at the burger joint&#8230;hey, girl&#8217;s gotta&#8217; eat, right???  Just took an hour-long detour, that&#8217;s all.  Moral of the Story:  Feature Bets are Sucker Bets till somebody wins&#8230;and Never pass up a Free Meal !!!<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h3>Replies:<\/h3>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> brothelman on January 21, 2016, 2:43 am<\/p>\n<div>the monster mile with a monster hand.<\/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> Dr Crapology on January 21, 2016, 1:28 pm<\/p>\n<div>A great read&#8211;so well written.
