Now if there's a hot roll happening, of course anybody would be wishing they got in on that action! I have to keep disciplining myself to not get greedy and go slow and steady. The pressing player will have $24 in the rack after the 6 is rolled 3 times.Ĭonsidering the odds are 6-5 against you to begin with, what are the chances of the 6 being rolled three times before a 7?Īfter rolling a 6 twice, the pressing player will have $9 dollars in the rack while the non-pressing player will have $14.
The non-pressing player will have $21 in the rack after the 6 is rolled 3 times. The 4 and 10 feel no love from me.)Īssuming a $6 wager, a player choosing to press the 6 (or 8) will have to hit that number THREE TIMES before coming out ahead of a player who chooses NOT to press. (For clarification, I place the 6 & 8 and on incredibly rare instances, I'll place the 5 & 9. That being said, I do NOT press my place bets. Keeping your bet on the table, when the six hits again, tell the dealer to press your bet, which will keep your original 6 bet on the table and award you. Many would consider it boring, but in the end I am all about managing the bankroll and making bets with the lowest house edge. The worst craps bets don't stop there The remaining worst bets are all one-roll bets you win if the shooter rolls the specified number on the subsequent roll. For hard four and hard ten, it's a distressing 11.1. The house edge is a painful 9.1 for hard six and hard eight.
When I play, I take a very conservative approach. Anyone can make the bet or take it back anytime (before resolution).
