HANDLING THOSE OTHER SHOOTERS. Like Joe Grady, most craps players want those big wins. Setting a Win Goal. Next, set your win goal. This is the amount of winnings you set as your goal for any given slots session. If you have a win goal of 10%, then your win goal would be $100 for any given slot machine sessions. As soon as you hit that goal, you walk away from the slot machine — no matter what.
I keep records of my gambling wins and losses, every casino, every time.
My craps play hasn't been too profitable of late, but WHOA, my slots play has me slightly ahead over the past couple of years.
It's just luck, aka variance.
None of us who play negative expectation casino games are in fact the Golden Child (possible AP exception, but to them it ain't gambling or a game, it's just a job: ugh).
FWIW, I agree that discipline and knowledge of the game are helpful, especially over time.

Most people are looking to make 500% on their investment. Greed kills and pigs get slaughtered.
You have to wonder, especially for a 49.3-49.3 game like craps, why in the world people would even fantasize about reaping 500%. Fire bet, anyone?But the variance does occur with frightening regularity both up and down. One big key, as you pointed out, is leaving the table at that certain point when you're ahead and avoiding the next swing down. All the while, not looking back.

I have a friend who has played dice for most of his life. I seen him run up two big scores. The first was about 150k which he lost in about a month afterwards. Five years later he ran up a half a million after an odd session where he bought in for 3k and ran it up to 75k then dumped it to zero... Next he went to the apartment and grabbed his case 10k and ran it up to just under half a million which took about 12-14 hours of inebriated play. It seems that once you start playing with those 5000 dollar white chips it is hard to go back to red and green checks! Needless to say about 10 weeks later he was busted and I mean flat out busted! It was fun to watch him move from black checks to betting 2k flat with 10k and 20k behind in several spots! Now it seems that he is on an endless journey to repeat the past :(
If you want to win at dice you either get on a crew that is cheating or you go around and find weak dealers who like to Over Pay.
The other way to win at dice is to just not play!

I don't know about this 0.32 percent precision, but I try to cram as much gambling into a trip as possible so well rested and entirely sober are not states likely to be encountered in festive Vegas. And not encouraged by the casino though sometimes encouraged by the craps crew.

I do not drink and always stay rested. An inebriated and tired mind certainly affect play.

Everyone has a system and everyone has a preferred style of play.... but who here consistently wins in craps? If there is anyone here who does, it would be great to hear your strategy.
The nice forum members have been politely beating around the bush. No one here believes you consistently win at craps. You can say it 100 times all in different ways, but no one will believe you. Unless you find an overpaying dealer, comps that exceed expected negative EV, or some other cheating mechanism, you will not consistently win at craps.
I play a negative EV game- Pai Gow Poker. Yesterday it was definitely positive EV, the dealer was pathetic and couldn't see a straight if you counted it out for him. He freely admitted he sucked at the game and doesn't understand why they would assign him to it! I had bad luck (negative variance) and still ended up $11. My buddy had average luck and ended up $200. I don't play craps enough to know if there are enough similar situations to make it + EV, but I would guess that is very rare.

I do. It doesnt matter if you believe it or not. My pocket is happy. I picked up another 500 last night... how did you do?

Attention Craps Enthusiasts
Have you ever heard of a craps game where you don't lose to craps (2,3,12) on the come-out roll and where every number except the 7 can become the point? Some casinos offer variants of such a game with names such as Crapless Craps or Never-Ever Craps. Well, now for your computer, there's NeverCraps! Although NeverCraps offers the same high quality, time-tested features found in WinCraps, it's currently a beta program because the new help file is not yet completed. For the time being, NeverCraps uses the helpfile from WinCraps.
