<<watch one or two players roll and seven out. At that point, I can't stand it any longer, and I get my money out, and bet the pass>>

sheesh, the guy doesn't know the first rule of momentum investing: the trend is your friend...

your strategy of "buying the table" as well as the pass line, btw, is one I call "microwave craps," because it provides instant gratification... Because I really really hate it when the shooter sevens out on the first roll in that situation, I sometimes wait out that first roll just to avoid such an outcome... see, that's one of those things that shouldn't work, but does. Like making sure your numbers bets are not working on the roll after the dice fly off the table, or when a squat pushy guy with lots of jewelry forces his way into a hot table...
