Thread: What's my edge in craps?

  1. #181
    All I know is that we have a guy who's been gambling and losing for years "never had a winning year"

    And now he THINKS he can beat a 7% ha without DI or anything other than his own special roll.

    Alan seems to "think" about a lot of things that other people deem idiotic, ridiculous, and/or unsupportable.

    Which is fine, free world, but when he decides to post his ideas and engage in debate he usually winds up looking like a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest.

    Yes, and I wouldn't allow it to continue.

    That's right. I never had a profitable year gambling.

    Eddie wrote about the iron cross "But as long as you don't roll a 7, you would profit on every single roll, right?"

    Consider this: you need to have $44 at risk on the iron cross plus $10 if you're the shooter. That's $54 to get a minimum return of $4 with each non-7 throw.

    You would have to throw a minimum of 13.5 non-7 throws just to break even. But the average shooter holds the dice for 8 rolls.

    Is that how you want to win at craps?

    Well, not exactly...

    If you hit a Field number, the 5,6 and 8 don't come down.

    There are 16 ways to roll a Field number and 20 ways to roll 5s, 6s, 7s, 8s. Around 44% of the time you are hitting a Field number and would actually profit $10 (or $20 for a 2 or 12) not $4.

    Eddie read again what I wrote. Read it carefully.

    I said the MINIMUM return is $4.

    I was actually responding to your statement that you would need 13.5 non-7 rolls.

    Frankly, why spend $44 on the field, 5, 6 and 8 when for the same $44 you can bet 5, 6, 8, 9 which give you a better chance of winning. And if you're the shooter there is a strong likelihood your point will be a 5, 6, 8 or 9 which means you'll save $10 or $12.

    You would need 13.5 rolls just to break even if the minimum return is $4.

    What makes you think you'll ever hit a 2 or 12 when betting the field? Every other number is an even money return.

    Case closed.

    Just a side note.

    All the anti AP's and system bettors are not willing to put their money where their mouth is. Most AP's are willing to put their money where there mouth is.

  13. #193
    Anti AP's and bull shit artists have little sayings such as...
    I never make pesonal bets.

    As soon as someone says they won't/don't make side bets you can automatically end their credibility.

    It just means...

    I know I'm full of shit but im not willing to lose money over it..

    AxelWolf why would anyone go on a public forum and report they have a profit from gambling?

    I'll put the same question to MrV, kewlj, jbjb, and the rest of you.

    Why wouldn't they, were it true?

    KJ reports a profit: why is that wrong?

    What are you afraid of, some internet stalker finding out where you live, invading your home and plundering your wealth?

    Get a grip.

    Let's see why kewlj might be public:

    1. Kewlj is not his real name
    2. Kewlj doesn't have divorce agreements with ex wives

    Of course kewlj can talk about his wins.

    For the record I have never had a profitable year gambling.

    Excellent point, because you've never posted about hitting $100k royals or $20k royals....or the casinos you play at. IIRC you even posted a video of you dancing after you hit a RF, right beside the machine while it was locked up.

    Hmm, I suppose if your divorce lawyer was so inept and unskilled so as to allow the final decree to allow that the spousal maintenance award could be modified in the future then perhaps you have a point.

    But really, if that's the case you should have paid a few bucks extra for a competent attorney.

    As for people knowing your real name: so what?

    Alan, nobody, and I mean nobody, would read a post where you said you made some money gambling and then be inspired to seek you out and do a home invasion; there are simply too many other opportunities out there for them.

    That's right RS___. But I've never had a profitable year in casinos.

    Now let's drop that discussion and go back to throwing dice. Okay?

    Are you really this thick?

    I would send you a PM but you have it turned off.
