    Pessimist.

    I say bet with the hitter for good juju, then bet the come, and then place your 6 & 8, if you're not feeling your points.

    Either way.... Great game. I can't farkin' wait till July.

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    Pass line and Don’t pass line have the same odds if you included the 12 being a push on the Don’t Pass.

    If you bet $6.00 on the Don’t Pass Line it means they will take your money if a 7 or 11 is rolled and pay you $6.00 if 2 or 3 is rolled.

    Now after the number is roll on the come out (4,5,6,8,9,10)…

    You cover your Don’t pass bet by making a $6.00 Place 6 or 8 bet.

    If the 7 is rolled (6 possible combinations) the Don’t Pass line gets paid $6.00 covering the place bet.

    If ether the 6 or 8 is rolled (5 possible combinations) the Place 6 or 8 you get paid $7.00 which covers your Don’t pass bet and give you a $1.00

    I'm not much for "juju"...

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    Yeah, but the only problem with that, is that 12 isn't a come-out roll push, it's a loss. At least in Clark County casinos, Nevada.

    I've never played a craps game, where 2, 3, and 12 were not all losses on come-outs. Not in Vegas, or any of the reservation casinos in New Mexico.

    Pass vs. Don't Pass should always have the same math behind them. The house wouldn't have it any other way.

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    One caveat of course, is that it is always at the houses discretion, to alter their game rules. It is not beyond the realm to have a casino say that 12 is a push on a Come-out.

    But like I said... I've just never seen it, between those two states.

    Can't wait for there to be higher stakes poker tables, some of the two five players that move up should bankroll a new toy or two. Plus I loves me some roulette.

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    I'll say one thing for sure.... Being able to finally play $10/$20 or even $6/$12, will finally get rid of some of the no-fold-'em Hold 'em types up there, and put some legitimacy back into the game.

    Hell! This may bring back stud to Blackhawk, or even High/Lo Split!

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    It would be nice if they put in some 20/40 or 100 in no limit that would take care of chasers and have them at the felt in two rounds. 7 stud high low, hell yeah!

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    You never know.... You might actually see a $20/$40 table spring up from time to time. I think $10/$20 will be available immediately at most of the big places.

    Feel like going up tonight Gary? EDIT: Anyone? I get outta here at 3:00.

    BLACK HAWK GAMBLING SUCKS ARSEHOLES.
    I have never as much as got a teaser out of that place
    not a lousy cent to keep you horny while putting your hard earned cash into any of their machines or tables.
    cool to hear that the wind of change is blowing up there but now you'll only lose more money faster.

    Craps Rules

    Don't Pass

    The don't pass is almost the opposite of the pass line bet. If the come out roll is a 2 or 3 then you win, a 7 or 11 you lose. A 12 is a push, except in Reno and Lake Tahoe, where a 2 is a push instead of the 12. Otherwise, the dice are rolled over and over until either the point or a 7 is rolled. If the 7 comes first you win, if the point come first you lose. All wins pay even money.


    I prefer Texas Holdem No-limit Tournaments myself…

    Las Vegas doesn't operate under those rules.

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    Every on-line gaming site I have found follows these rules.
    I think you're thinking this...

    The Pass Line

    The pass line bet is put on the the pass line itself on a come out roll. You can tell it is a come out roll if there is a black laminated marker on the table that says "off." If the come out roll is a 7 or 11, then you win even money. If the come out roll is a 2, 3, or 12, then you lose. If any other total is rolled (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, or 10) that total is called "the point." The dealer will turn over the marker that says "off" to the white "on" side, and place it on an area of the table with that number, to help the players remember what the point is. Then, the shooter will roll the dice until he either rolls that same point again, or a seven. If a seven comes before the point, then you lose. If the point is rolled first, then you win even money.

    Re: Black Hawk raised their maximum bets

    Here's an passage from the alleged "official" Las Vegas Travel Website, Vegas.com:
    http://www.vegas.com/gaming/gaming_tips/craps.html

    "On the Come Out roll, if a 7 or 11 is rolled prior to establishing a Point, any Player who bet on the Pass Line wins. If, however, a 2, 3 or 12 is rolled, the Pass Line bet loses. The opposite is true with the Don't Pass bet, in which case, the 7 and 11 loses, and the 2, 3 and 12 wins, if rolled prior to a Point being established."

    I dunno Randall. I guess maybe outside of the places I've played, the "12 = push" rule might be more prevalent that I'm aware, in the case of a Don't Pass bet. Have you actually seen this in practice anywhere?

    Don't bet on it. I was in Florida when the lottery there was supposed to "enhance" education but it turned out to be a vicious shell game. I don't think Colorado's politicians will be any better. Graduate as quickly as you can.

The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."
