What is your biggest Win/Loss you've seen on Cruise?

Carnival liberty, went on a long roll and colored up 5k up. Used squeeze play to press collect and maxed out the 6.

I never played on a cruise lol, but my biggest casino win on the craps table was about maybe 6-7k. That night was so unreal. There was 2 hot shooters that hit like at least 20+ rolls and the 2nd hot shooter was hitting a lot of hardways. Other than that the regular wins be like 20-100 dollars 😂😂😂.

Made a few thousand one night, still kicking myself for leaving after a decent roll to go join my wife at Bingo, only to return 75 minutes later and the shooter after me was still rolling. I’ve even hit the ATS a couple times (I don’t set the dice, I just feed the chickens)

Thanks Waylon! I appreciate it!!!

At 16:36, you rolled a 6-3 9. You placed the odds behind the pass line, but you left the box 9 bet out. Minor error, but normally the dealer will pull your 9 down.

Yes.. thank you for letting me know...

I play 6-8 18 on each. And I don’t bet again until they hit 2times. Then I start spreading out the numbers and there’s no risk. I was up last year 2k by playing that way. I by in for 300

I was on a Carnival Cruise back in March ... they live off the casual player who knows just enough about craps to get themselves in trouble ... I played a couple of strats and did quite well making enough to cover the cruise plus our drink package, only played a couple of hours on two of the sea days ... Played the Arnold and a 5/6/8/Field (125/150/150 and 75) one hit and off... I had to stand right next to one of the dealers to communicate off/on better ... they didn;t mind because I tipped them well each session ... but MAN!!! Did I see so many people pounding that common way you described ... I kinda felt bad for some of them

Absolutely!And you are right.. Not so much the dealers, but the Casinos in general thrive off just enough info/Money to lose their tails! Thanks for your feedback!!! 👍🏼👊🏽

In order to break even on the ATS you would need to hit one side for every 10 times a 7 rolls not every ten shooters. Assuming 108 rolls an hour, there would be ~18 7's rolled per hour. That's $270 investment per hour on a bet that the house has a bet that the house has close to a 20% edge on ($54 theoretical loss per hour playing $5 + $5 + $5). Hitting them all once every 4 hrs is about break even. But it gets worse! Because people will hedge the ATS by hopping the 7s or a big red, which are also really bad bets. IMO, if you are going to hedge it place a pass-line to cover the 7s. That being said, it is a fun bet. FYI: I don't play Craps much anymore but I've been dealing it for 25 years.

@MarkThePoint I've been gambling a lot myself recently as well. Getting ready for DiceCon. But, talking about ATS, I hit the full ATS this past weekend at my local casino. First time ever. I've hit the small and the tall individually several times, but never the ALL. So yeah, I agree, its hard to hit the full ATS.

I'm a Line bettor for a good reason: Line bets can edge other action depending on the 'puck'. As a general rule, DI works best when the 7 is on your side! If there is no overall line bet edge, use random. That's it.

@markthepoint, what are the min/max bets on a cruise table?

@markthepoint

Ай бұрын

It all depends on what cruise you are on... Most boats I've been on are $10 tables.. But the Mardi Gras and Celebration are $15 mins

This is a great reminder that I haven't spent much time thinking about but I probably should have. If you had just eliminated the ATS bet I think you would have been up at least another hundred dollars at the end. Maybe something we should all consider on the all tall small being a sucker bet. I don't know how it is on a cruise ship but at the local casino we have here you can bet a minimum of $1 on each of those small tall and all. Maybe that's a better way to go or not bet it at all. Use a two or three hit and down system. Maybe go for three hits fully pressing the first two and getting out on the third hit play the short game then take a portion of those profits and maybe play the hard ways for a big hand with a parlay

@markthepoint

Ай бұрын

Absolutely... People always say it's a Bleed.. While this is just a short demo... if you don't hit a leg for a while. Consider it a loss! It's a fun bet I know.. But think about all the come-out 7s that reset it each time...

Last cruise March/April on RCI was coming off BJ/21 down couple hundred waiting for craps table to open. Bought in about $700 on craps, started off playing 3-Molly/3-Dolly. Tons of PSO's knocked lots of players out and player churn, many with similar bets that you show. I was slowly making money on 3-Molly/Hedgeless Horseman with few come bets and DP/PL, after couple table shooter rotations found that only three of us playing could catch a longer roll. Tried LiD Holy Roller strategy two hands, was grinding at $110 breaking even or slow bleed. On one good dice setter / shooter went Iron Cross, $110 inside, $15 Field and $15 PL he had a long roll, next good shooter did same strategy had a good roll. Recovered losses on bankroll and colored up ~$450. Dropped dealers nice tip and didn't play rest of the trip. Next cruise we have scheduled for July then December over Christmas. Cruises are starting to get cheaper so may risk less to try and win a free cruise. BTW: I'm not even close to winning a free cruise sitting at 110 Casino Royal points and need at least 1,100 more.

Right. So you are hedging for the come-out roll... But what about after the point is set... How are you covering the continual $5-5-5 again.. after 10 shooters it's an additional $150 loss if one leg doesn't get Hit... We preach to get out of the hand.. But the ATS, $5 big Red is all part of that right? All and all... It's a very hard game...
