Hey, go by Harrah's for me. After the point is set, place the 6&8 for $12 each; buy the 4 and 10 for a quarter (ONLY IF they charge the vig on wins only - don't make the bet if they charge the vig on wins and losses); and make 3 consecutive $10 bets on Don't Come. If you hit on either place, make them pay you and take the other down. If you hit on either of the 4,10 buy bets, make them pay you and take the other down. And if you lose a Don't Come bet, don't replace it more than once. Thanks! Why? The best odds you vcan get is on the comeout and taking the odds. Why bet the six or 8 at markedly inferior odds? What is the point of placing 3 bets on dont come, except if you lose the fisrt two? The odds on the 3rd are just as good. I would propose something like this. Make a bet (either take the odds or not do not care but simpler to explain system without odds) Bet wins. Let it ride. If that wins take the original bet off to guarantee a break even position. If that wins take 1/2 off and let the rest ride for two more rolls. (guaranteed winner at this point) Lose and walk away (or play until stake is exhausted) Win take 1/2 off and let the rest ride. As soon as you lose ALWAYS go back to single unit bet. As soon as you lose three (5?) bets in a row, (OR get substantially ahead and lose 1/2 back) or lose session limit walk away and session is over. Something like that makes sense to me. Depending on ones stake, session could be over on first 5 bets or you could win a fortune if you get hot. In this system there is always more money being bet and on the table during winning streaks as opposed to losing streaks. Losing streaks are ALWAYS single units, winning streaks, some of it is riding. If you get way ahead never give it all back in the same session. If you get decently ahead try and walk away no worse that break even (at leaast try and get a single unit ahead and keep it) If you are on the verge of losing your session limit and get back to even or close, step away as soon as you lose a couple bets in a row. Limit your losses. Always step away if you reach your session limit. You do not have to bet every roll. If you lose a few bets in a row and do not want the session to end too quick, just bet after a point is made/lost. It is glorious to bet dont come, and have every point covered and then a 7 come up collecting everything on the table on the next roll, but unless things start off great and keep going great it is easy to lose a stake quickly if betting on every roll. I would assume I am telling you nothing here, but that is how I would play. Actually I really do not like Vegas truth be know because i hate giving someone else a guaranteed edge. M
