Odds of winning hardway bets

Odds of winning hardway bets

I’ve often wondered what the actual odds of winning a hardway bet, I know that if you play the hard 6 or 8, then it pays 10-1. Over the course of a few hours I tracked about 25 hands where I bet on either the Hard 6 or 8, mostly I played €100 on the hardway bet and 100 on ...

Why quit a good thing?

Why quit a good thing?

Now that I’ve played the movie slot games, I decided to return to the Craps table. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. There are two nice things about playing with a nice sized bankroll 1. You can weather the storms when things are bad and ride them out until your luck turns around 2. You can bet much higher ...

Finishing up my Amazing Online Craps Run

Finishing up my Amazing Online Craps Run

I decided that I had to stick with Craps since I was on a great run, and overall my luck stayed good. The nice thing about finally having a bankroll to play with is that every now and then I can do something crazy, make a large wager and really help bump me over the top. After a day or ...

Winning at Online Craps

Winning at Online Craps

It is much easier to write about wins then losses, which makes the craps roller coaster I’ve been on these past few days easier to write about. As I mentioned in my last post I went all in and lost, so I had to deposit another €500 into the casino. After avoiding craps for a while, I decided that I ...

Craps again

Craps again

I decided to make a return to Craps, mainly because it’s my favorite online casino game, and I keep hoping that I catch fire again. I went back to betting the “Hardway Bets”  dropping €40 per hand between the come out roll, the point numbe, the big 6 and the hard 6. It started off slowly, I rolled 7′s in 4 ...

Online Craps is my Achilles Heel

Online Craps is my Achilles Heel

I long for the glory days of my online craps mastery. I can close my eyes and recall how I rode a hot streak to the tune of €3,000, and I manage to block out the day after when I lost it all. Chalk that up to bad luck, it was my great skill and well timed bets that brought ...

Goodbye Craps

Goodbye Craps

At least for now. I don’t know what happened, all of the sudden I can’t win at craps anymore. I’m finding it tough to adjust to having a smaller balance to play with. A few weeks ago, if I bet 40-50 Euros on a hand, and lost it was no big deal, but now that I had to start over, ...

What the Heck Just Happened

What the Heck Just Happened

I have no explanation; I can’t believe how quickly my luck turned from awesome to crap. I can’t believe that I didn’t just walk away from the table. I can’t believe that I blew over €4,000 at the craps over the course of two days. I can’t believe the dice betrayed me like that. The whole thing is kind of ...

Crazy Craps Weekend

Crazy Craps Weekend

It took me a while to get this post written, as I’ve started getting lazy in my old age. This past weekend, I played a crazy amount of craps, and I had a great run. I stuck with the strategy of high risk=high rewards, laying as much as €590.00 on the table at a time. I took a lot of ...

Aggressive Craps

Aggressive Craps

As I mentioned earlier in the week, I’ve taken a more aggressive stance at betting in raps, and so far it’s been up and down, but overall I’ve come out ahead. I try and have a €10 chip on either the Hard 6 or Hard 8, at some point I got tired of losing when rolling a 4,2, so I ...
