- I would bet $15 on the Don't Pass, with a dollar yo and a $4 big red.
- I know big red is a bad bet, but it is a small price to stay in the game.
- The Don't Pass bet though is also just a hedge for my future bets.
- I would place the 6 and 8 after the point.
- If the either the 6 or 8 is point, then place the one that isn't, along with the hotter 5 or 9.
- With these 2 numbers I make a $10 come bet.
- At this point. I have $49 on the table, but at worst, the most I can lose is the $15 if the shooter makes his point. If the shooter craps out right now I'm up a buck.
- Obviously this is not the ideal situation but at least I'm treading water for now.
- I hope that the come bet lands on 6 or 8, because then I win $14, yet keep it up as odds on my come bet. I think this is cool cuz I'm using the casinos money as odds.
- If it's a hit, I can either keep my winnings, press, or up a unit.
- No matter what though if the shooter were to crap out at this point, the worst I could do is lose $19 (not including the coming out).
- What this means, is all I really need is a short streak to produce winnings.
- If the come bet lands on 5, I have the 5,6,8 covered.
- I could drop another come bet and play the field, and I would have every single number covered on the table with not a very large risk.
- Obviously I could play the horn at this point as well.
This method of winning is deliberate, but at least I have prevented losing
