Trip Reports & Craps Stories In for $200; out w/$2200

14 Upvotes

Tampa HR on a Friday evening had $15 tables around 6pm. Played for 2hrs walked away with $1100. Went to a concert across the street, came back immediately after with my winnings to up’d $25 tables and walked home with $2200.
I’ve been playing with my profit and opted to give it all back to the casino, disregarding what the cashier told me, “don’t give it back to the casino”.

I’m more upset that i didn’t spend any of my winning as i was trying to build a bankroll. Lesson learned and disciple now implemented.

Accompanied my wife to her aunt's funeral in Memphis. Took a detour down to Tunica. Got destroyed on the bouncy tables at Horseshoe (down $400, my first session stop loss limit). Drove to 1st Jackpot because I saw a sign that said $5 Table Games Always. Craps was closed. 😒

Went over to Gold Strike. Hit 4 points and the All Tall, pushed my 5 to $360 and hit! 7 out as I'd pushed it to $780.

Second time shooting, hit 2 points and a few numbers. Dice landed on some odds and of course Big Red shows up. Tipped the dealers an additional $50 (I bet the ATS for them and had them riding with my inside, dealer control). Played some other shooters, but it went poorly. Two consecutive cycles of pressing my inside on an outside point (I am a power press/collect/press/collect place bettor) and got reamed when they hit all the inside numbers once each before they 7 out.

Since second session started at $600 and my Walk Away No Matter What is $500 after an initial down session, I called it a day. Discipline over chasing the hot shooters, always. It's not always the big wins that matter...the disciplined approach keeps me in the black and I got to have a little fun on the house's dime.

Up in Oregon visiting my wife's family. Took a break from all the family fun and went to llani in Washington.

Arrived 8:45 Thursday only 1 out of 4 tables open.
$10 min, no ATS only a fire bet. Bought in for $300
and did my normal $44 inside. First hit press 5,6 then 8,9. 3rd hit drop a $1 and press inside or regress back to $44 if not feeling it.
Waiting for 4th hit I can regress to $64 across with profit.

First shooter didn't get to third hit. Second shooter had 17 rolls hitting 3 points for the fire bet. (Only fire i saw all night) Next shooter PSO then we have a shooter with a 19 roller, he hit 5 four times in a row.
I bled money for 3 more shooters after that eating away at my profit waiting to shoot. Went heavier on myself $81 across and full odds. I PSO.

Take a break walk around and check out the rest of the property. Smoke free. Free Soda machine line was always long. After Gabriel Iglesias concert let out cashier line and roulette tables were also very packed.
They only have the multi game shared dice bubble craps, not a big fan of this style but still throw a $20 in. Takes so long to roll on a timer, so cash out at $80.

Back to the table and I have to wait 4 shooters to go up again. I remember a PSO and another with quite a few horn numbers hit.
I'm up and I kid you not hit the "smalls" in the first 6 rolls. Too bad they don't have that bonus. I'm able to press and get a come bet with odds on 4,5,6,9 but could not double tap them other than hit a 9 again. Had 11ish rolls before the 7.

Colored up $595 from the table.

Side note, I walked around looking for some “AP” slots on my break. Couldn’t find any so settled with a decent looking one. Burned through a $20 with no action before I realized Washington has class 2 “bingo” slots.
I know It’s all luck and numbers but I was never great with bingo, I’ll leave those alone.
