Craps Grinding for Profits

Let me make something clear from the start....I did not create this strategy as a system for playing the don't pass side of the crap table....the only reason I use the don't pass, is for relieveing the boredom while waiting for what I am really looking for....and to make some extra bucks along the way.

OK....what I have always searched for was a way to put me onto a hot shooter and hopefully a long roll. Those "long rolls" are there....but, the primary problem has always been to get on one without having to chase the sonsa girl all day.....I believe that I have discovered a great strategy for accomplishing that....plus a strategy for making extra profits along the way on the don't pass!

Some of you may know this piece of data...most of you will not......over 90%, (thats 90 percent!)....of the shooters will not roll two "point-passes" while rolling the dice! Sure, many of them will roll multiple natural passes....but those natural passes will not....in the long run, make you much money! It's the number passes, ("point's)...that will make you the most money when they're running....and that is the KEY to the strategy I have discovered!

What I have discovered over many years at the crap tables....is that over 95% of what would be considered a "long and hot hand"...will only occur after a shooter has rolled TWO POINT PASSES! Not a bunch of natural passes....but "point passes"!

If you are not comfortable with playing the don't pass side of the table....it is not mandatory that you do this....you may simply stand and wait for the TWO necessary point-passes to trigger you to the PASS SIDE OF THE TABLE, (and hopefully, a long, hot roll).

1. OK, I start any session by making what is referred to as..."a straddle" bet.....this simply means a minimum bet on the Pass line and a minimum bet on the Don't Pass line. The reason for this is to bypass having to go through the natural sevens and elevens in order to get behind a number. For those who don't understand....there are 8 ways for the Pass line to win on the "come-out" rolls.....and only 4 ways for the Don't Pass line to win....and actually, only the 2, nd 3 will will win for you on the Don't Pass line, because the casino "bars" the number 12....meaning a push....so, on any come-out roll, the Don't Pass line is actually up against probabilities of 8 to 3 on the come-out roll......of course after you get a number established on the don't pass side, you are always the favorite to win! That's the reason why many professional's only play the don't pass side.

Now this may tempt you to play just the don't pass side....however, it's also a two edged sword! When a table get's hot, or even nice and warm, the don't pass side can be a real girl as to stress and risk!

Remember, there's always ying & yang....meaning the Pass side can also be a girl when it get's cool or cold!

1. Begin with a minimum straddle bet on the Pass & Don'tPass lines.....and when you have a point established, you LAY the minimum odds, and if win, you've made a few bucks and you do it over again.....however, if the shooter hit's you by making his point....then you make one more straddle bet and LAY 2 times odds and if win, then you have still made a few bucks.

2. Now, let's say the shooter hit's you with TWO point passes, (actually that's what you've been waiting for!)...you now switch sides to the PASS LINE and make your first bet with enough chips to cover those two point-pass lay-bet's you lost....plus, you also make an "ANY CRAP" BET WITH ENOUGH TO COVER YOUR PASS LINE BET.....ANY CRAPS PAYS 7 TO 1.

EXAMPLE: if you're on a one dollar table,( yeah, there are still a couple around)....your pass bet would be like, $8.00 and your any crap bet would be just $1.00....all it is is a hedge to cover the pass line bet.

Let's say you win that bet.....you are virtually back to even and now you are in position for a hot, long roll......you can begin with a minimum pass line bet and if get another point number, start out with at least 2 times odds and grow from there!

OK my friend, there you have what I consider to be the finest craps grinder ever invented! If you are properly financed.....and have the Patience and discipline to carry you through all of the ups and downs and the bullshyt that will be tossed around a crap table....I can virtually guarantee you that you will win!

ONE CAVEAT: There is only one legit reason for being at a crap table.....TO MAKE MONEY! If you are there for any other reason, then I strongly advise you to get the hell away from the table!!!

Best to you always and may you grow & prosper!
