Re: Casino Craps Strategies
Would you do this at somewhere that say had a $5 minimum but offered 100x full odds on craps?
Taking full odds doesn't change the EV of the game... If your goal is to lose as little possible and be social for x length of time (which seems to imply you want to avoid -EV things which should include EV neutral as well) you still going to lose the same amount long term by just playing the minimum on the pass line / no pass line so you might as well avoid the variance and not take odds on your bets...
If you plan to play till you hit some sort of stop loss or want to gamble it up then increasing your variance by taking full odds makes sense as you going to increase your shot at a bigger score (at the expense of a possible larger loss)...
Mold...its a NEGATIVE expectation game no matter what you do..stay away from any and all negative expectation games...
if you have to play, for the experience do the following only.
find the lowest min table..
play the min pass line wager..
after a point put full odds behind the line on that wager
then nothing else..just sit, get a bunch of free drinks, get 2 at a time!, flirt with any ladies playing, high five people you dont know and be done in about an hour....thats it...
there is no such think as a cold or a hot table..the dice have no memory if this or that number was just rolled...there are NO hot rollers and no cold rollers that you can define before the roll...so dont buy any of that hype or stuff in books...
just do what I said and then get back to games like sports where you can find some positive expectation overlays at times!
dont spend any cash at a craps table unless you can book the bets!
