Hey everybody! David hit me up with an idea about using KerrySmyth’s Craps Strategy but with a much more limited odds. I thought it would be fun and I’d love to hear from any of you about using this method.

loveing casino shills are every were.
Hi Arch, like the videos. What are your thoughts on taking winnings from the come bets and hopping whatever your DC is. I feel like at a real casino would be hard to keep up with but in your opinion would that just be thought away profits.
Background –
I am an AP using AO2 for 20 years (lost only one year cos I ran into a real bad swing after Xmas, didn't have time to get money back before year end). I played Pro for a few years, but found the swing too stressful, went back to work and continue to play with a 15,000BR with 1 Kelly. I don't adjust bet, instead I just add to my bankroll if need be (which is rare). I constantly pay attention to my EV and CE. So I know my odds a bit. At first I was skeptical of this system because I couldn't see any players edge. But, I always need a low risk hobby when I want to break from BJ for a bit, especially when I am going thru bad variance.
I learned the system and thought would give it a go. It was hairy to try to keep track of everything in the beginning. My house here offers a spread of $5 to $200 come. I bought in $300 and tried with one unit. It was intense, especially when I tried to adjust my odds and DC to minimize exposure. I scored $50-$100 a couple times. Then I lost $49. I didn't chase because I was getting too confused. Otherwise, looking back, I could have easily gotten my money back. For the next 10-12 session I won them all, until one night, anything bad could happen HAPPENED. All night long a 7 would come right after my DC point got knocked = I lost DC twice. OR I would build my odds one by one, then a 7 would come …. ALL NIGHT, as in 6 hours. But, the system is so tight that I only lost $150. The magic of this system being the Dark side insures the place bets, half of the place odds is from winning, if you score once you are pretty much even. Usually you are up $50 to down $150. Eventually someone would roll 2-3 of your numbers, you are up a bit, don't have to worry about DC anymore. If he gives you another 5-8 rolls you are into the money, then you start going up on come bet, now you are into some serious coin. When the system resolves, you cash out. I play with mainly 1 unit, couple of times 2 units, once I played 4 units. I am up 16 out of 18 sessions counting the confusing $49 loss (or $4000 up). I know this is not enough stats to make any kind of a statement. But I will tell you this, I find this system far more secured than my blackjack even when I have a 2-3% edge. In a bad night I can be in for $2000-$3000 playing on a 15000 BR.. with this system, I was only down $150 when it was so bad that I lost interest. I will keep playing this until I give back half of my winning. I will report back periodically. One more thing, as long as I am back and forth, one of these years I will run into a guy that would roll for an hour. I will take it from $5 come to $200 come, max odds we are talking $1400 a roll. It will be mid to high 5-digit score. that day will come and it is all done with an house edge, meaning I wont get backed off lol.
Anybody wanna comment, pls keep it civilized. Kerry, thanx for sharing your system. Anytime you need help with blackjack you give me shout. I know a thing or two about gaming, especially when it comes to the psychological effect of risk taking, if not properly contained it can be any professional gamblers worst enemy. Arch, thanx for inviting our comments.
PS: I keep my action off on the come out roll, especially when I have 4-5 stacks of odds out. I know my DC is there to insure my front action. Since DC is exposed, the front might as well be "working". But .. when a 7 comes, I lose all 5 stacks of odds. If my number comes, I only win roughly 1 DC. Meaning I will need to score 5 times in come out roll to pay back the ONE 7. One night the 7 hit me 5 times in come out roll with all 5 stacks of odds. After that, I keep my action off. lol.

Nice! I feel honored having a video made about my system. The max odds theory is that I'm trying to use a hedging system that tries to minimize the house edge. Since there is no house edge on odds, it's smart to figure on a system that maximizes odds. Same goes for middle bets like the yo and hardways. Sure it's nice to hedge but those are high house edge bets so you want to keep them as small as possible, and you can even go without them if you're feeling lucky.
Hey Arch I’d love to hear your take/results on Kerry’s modified system. If you could also explain the lay amounts that would hedge each don’t pass bet made (ie how much to lay on to hedge most of the 75) that would be a bonus! The video is here: https://youtu.be/rCNCV9D_CCI thanks!
Tried it at 1/2 the bets your doing and lost my bank roll. Not a fan of this method.
The only two links a good gambling degenerate will ever need.
If you're a sports bettor, I made a Discord Server to come shoot the bad, talk trash and make picks with us over on Discord: https://discord.gg/HyVj6Tx
If you're a table gambler you've got to join Marcus and Jeff's group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1794556130566057/?ref=bookmarks
Maybe practice on the very low minimum craps machines. In AC there are $1 minimum machines.
I used this method onces on the table and onces on the bubble machine. It work great on the table. I went on the table with 300. Walked away with over 1200 within half a hr. I didn't even shoot the dices once. The 1st person 7 out within like 4 or 5 rolls. But the second person rolled like 15 time b4 the 7 came. The point was 5 and my DC was 8 so I had $10 on the hard 8 instead of $5. But I went 2 x, then 4 x then 5 x on the 6 and 8. So i maxed almost all my bets. This guy kept hitting 9s, 4s, and 6s. At least 4 to 5 times each. And finally the 8 hit but it was the hard 8. Lose the $75 But made $90 on my $10 hard way. Right after that I pull down all my bets (except for my come bets of course)And the guy 7 ed out lol. Walk away with $1237. But obviously I got super lucky. Now with the bubble I was on it for like 4 hours and lost 300 lol. This machine though can only max at $50 bet And only 2 x odds , so I don't recommend this system on the machine. Math is all wrong for it. But my point is it can work with only 300 with a lot of lucky of course lol.
Thank you.
