7 thoughts on “Best Craps Strategy? Why Play the Iron Cross?

  1. Hey, great videos. But you keep mentioning that the iron cross is weak because you need to hit atleast 6 times to break even. But that's ANY 6 rolls (which may or may not include 1-2 crap numbers as well). There is NO strategy (mid press, press 1 unit etc) that will be at break even after 6 rolls either. Compared to all other strategies if people are only rolling 3-6 times before the 7. You will stay in the game longer using iron cross than any of the other strategies. It's just terrible for long rolls unless you press up a bit/branch out to the other numbers.

  2. I just started watching crap videos about a week ago. Back then I love the Iron Cross that was a strategy I was going to use when I go to Vegas next week. But since then without playing a game of dice I just don't understand why anybody would play the field. No I am a newbie I haven't been to a crap table in 30 years. So obviously I could be wrong here. It just seems if you're playing the 6 and 8 the field would be a horrible bet

  3. Hope you and your family recover. Thanks for the explanation on how to improve the strategy for the iron cros.🍁

  4. I agree. The Iron Cross is weak. You could bet the same amount doing $66 inside and if you full pressed the 1st hit say taking the 6/8 from 18 to 36 or the 5/9 from $15 to $35 and it hit again you'd basically be break even with 2 hits and half the numbers working for you. You'd also be there with just 3 hits doing $66 inside. I will typically full press the first two hits and drop down to $66 again after the 3rd hit then place the 4 and 10 on the 4th and 5th hits. Under 5 hits and I've recouped my money and have all the numbers working. Overall you can recoup that investment capital in half the rolls. Also a great way to hold on until a hot shooter comes around. I've debated about laying the 4 or the 10 for $140 as protection during the first three hits but that usually ends up just being the same as taking the $66 risk. If the table is super cold maybe you do that to hold on until things change.
