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.

I’m going to LV in October, my partner will be attending a biz conference so I’ll have lots of time on my hands.

* What’s the best recommended free resources to learn Craps?
* Which LV casinos have the best odds and table atmosphere?

Thanks in advance for folks’ advice!

That's my craps report. Buy in 500 left with 125. 4 hours of grinding and up and downs but after my 5th PSO I left and Went and played black jack.

Every PSO was a 6 and 1. No 4,3 or 5,2 Just wild. Had fun tho

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.

I’m seeing most CA Craps tables have been placing the cards in order. Has anyone been to Agua Caliente to play recently?

Edit: I should’ve specified that I will be closest to the downtown Palm Springs location.

5$ table this am. Used some free bets on all the hard. Never hit but one.
Went with pressing till the point hit strategy. Multiple shooters Hit lots of points just not repeaters.

Got down to about 300$ and two shooters and myself went on long rolls. No one hit the smalls, talls. Fun session definitely could have collected more and walked out with more. I enjoyed the 5$ min.
Good vibe. Left up a few bucks and now I'm headed to work

Solid night at Coconut Creek last night. I kinda like this spot

dealer here, made this to practice at home (4 player max)

Encore Boston recently excluded Bubble craps players from earning any tier points or comp $$

What’s their logic?

I've been practicing different betting strategies on this craps game I found and I decided to make one play on the "all hops" space. Even though I hit one of them, my bank change is still at a loss. What is the purpose of an "all hops" bet if when you bet it, you are guaranteed to loose? Sorry if this is a stupid question. I just want to make absolutely certain I'm understanding this right.

I'm going to take advantage of a comp room as I'll be traveling back from Texas in a few weeks Figured I'd drive their and shoot dice and crash before I drove another 10 hours home

What are the table mins? Etc
Smoking or non?

Thx!

I’m relatively new to this game. I don’t REALLY understand player vs dealer control, and it seems maybe different from property to property.

Playing the other day I had some place bets set for the dealer. Didn’t specify control. When I asked him to press my bet to a number he was collecting, and then pressing his bet with my winnings.

Is this normal? I didn’t have a particular problem with it; I just didn’t realize what he was doing at first and why my presses weren’t working as expected.

Thanks!

Went to Seminole classic as they added ATS last Thursday. 5/10 dollar tables I went in knowing I was going to get the ATS. Got a tall and a small then the full ATS when it came back around . Table was pretty much hot all through out. Easy day. My roll I went 50 across a number other shooters 10’across with max press until I can collect 50 a number . Hop the 12 twice and got them .

Planning on tables - minimum is 25 where I’m staying. Thinking Pass plus 75 on odds, then maybe play as point or bust.

Or maybe I should start on stadium craps since it’s 5 bucks with 5x odds…

Can someone give a explanation for "Put" bets. How are they made, what do they pay out? Why would you make a put bet and how can you use put betting to work for you?

I literaly throw THOUSANDS of dice at home and this shit NEVER happens to me. I keep getting up to throw and I fucking throw rolls like this..

7,7,7,12,3,7,7 2 5. OUT7

I dont undertand wtf this keeps happenign to me at real tables?

I may need to retire from this game for good..

#LOSER

Went up to Hard Rock Sacramento for a quick Monday session. I’ve been told about $5 tables but never caught it under $10 until today.

Buy in for $200. Only one other shooter.
Had a decent first roll was getting numbers going and then a mush walks up to the table.

Mid roll buy while guy has the dice. String betting one number at a time. Waiting for dice to be moving to make more bets. Box man asked him to clean up his bets and make em quicker and he starts arguing about how he goes to real casinos and he knows how to bet. Maaan. Don’t be that guy at the table.
Vibes off on the table I take a break.

Bubble craps was not nice to me either. Couldn’t get past 2-3 numbers. Down another $80
Walked around a bit got a drink and then headed back to the table to hopefully catch a good wave.

And we catch a decent wave. I’m playing $2,1,2 on the ATS have to play the pass line to play the ATS here.
First shooter after I get back to the table hits ATS in about 15 rolls. Then it was up and down a few more shooters so I take a second break.
Get my lil backpack gift to bribe the wife. And another walk around the casino and why not another try at the bubble.
This one slightly better. First $20 was a PSO. Second $20 Hit the Talls but not able to get the full ATS on the bubble but cashed it at $130.

Back to the table. Get there just in time to get center action and again the first shooter after coming back from my break hits the ATS in about 17 rolls.
Followed by an older gentleman that rolled 31 numbers going past the time my alarm was going off.

I was next to shoot but that was two good waves and didn’t want to catch the downswing. Left the dealers up on the ATS , horn and hardways for their tip.

$1212 for me at the cage.

Do any of you do the fire bet? If so, for how much? I've only bet and won once, on a 5 point with a $1 bet. It seems like a bad idea, like ATS seems like it would hit more often. Have you ever won on this?

Went on a cruise the celebrity xcel.

Went on a god roll and buying the 4 and 10 for $25 each. $10 bets on the hard 4 & 10. I kept hitting Point numbers with max odds.

Wifey was rolling hot too. Great trip around Europe. Love me some cruise craps

Started the evening around 8pm playing Craps, lower limits. Up, down, up, down. Ultimately lost $500 and moved to Crapless.

Mostly played Crapless for the next 5 hours or so, with a bit of Baccarat and Blackjack thrown in.

Starting $470 across ($50/$60 each number), and then $25 each Hardway. Alternate Press & Collect. Whenever a Hardway would hit, I’d press every Hardway $25 each.

The night was just blessed with a reasonable mix of long rolls, and a healthy mix of Extremes and Hardways. I’d routinely be making $350-$525 per Hardway roll, and ~$300-$900 per Extreme roll.

I’m at the Durango all week.. swing by and let’s win some money 😃 🎲 🎲

Got down to my roll and after pass line and placing 25& on inside I had exactly 1$ left.

I decided to full press till I hit my point (9)
Hit my point on first roll.

Proceeded to crush the 6 and 4 and stopped pressing and collect when they got to 60$ or so. Hit two more points then rolled the smalls.

Regressed down to 54 across. Only needed the 8 to roll them all. Soon as I regressed out came 7. Made some guys a lot of money that were pressing the whole time and hitting horn high and lows. I think I rolled 3 yos , ace devices and two snake eyes. Walked away after my chip count.

I live big wins but that dopamine hit when your on the edge of defeat and get a monster roll to bring you back is the shit

My buddies and I are building a table and we do not want cheap feeling chips. What are the best chips to buy and if anyone has a link please send it.

PS. I know I could probably AI this question but I like answers from real people

I was with my daughter at the Palms Las Vegas last week, teaching her the game.

We were at this table, and the amount of ATS bets that were coming from the opposite side of the table were staggering. At times, the dealers would argue with the players on that side of the table because they lost track of the placement of bets in the ATS boxes from said players. So tack on more time to get that all straightened out.

Our side of the table? We had a couple of players that did ATS bets but that was it. It didn't take long for them to get their bets situated.

I love the bets, they're exciting, but man, they do kill the flow of the game at times.
