Playing Craps With An Under Funded Bankroll At A Large Denomination Table

On a recent family trip to Ohio, we stopped by the riverboat. I went to play craps while my friend went to play poker. I only had $100 cash because originally I was told that we would not be going near a casino and I did not have any charts to record the roll data. Anyhow, we went to the poker to get my friend on the waiting list. Then we went back over to the craps pit to find the smallest denomination table, which was a $10 table. I knew my bankroll was not big enough, but I figured I'd give it a try because it was either that or go play poker. I opted to play craps with a small bankroll than poker because if I played poker, it is almost always a loss. Usually to some hump sitting on a garbage hand in early position against my pocket aces or kings. Then here comes the river card and boom I lose. I digress, anyhow back to the game at hand - craps. As you can guess, I did not last long, thus this post.

I tried playing at the $10 and held my own for a while. Then came one bad shooter after another. Finally, I got the dice back and made a couple of points to bring myself even. I decided to hang around to see if the bad shooters were still at the table, so I started betting the Don't Pass and Don't Come wagers. Within a couple of shooters I was back down to $10, so I walked away.

In the mean time my friend took his $200 and ran it up to $500 playing blackjack, and then they finally called him to go play poker. I ask him if I could spot me $200 and I will give it another try at the tables. This time the only thing open was a $15. The results were similar to the last session. This reinforces the idea of having a large enough bankroll to play through all of the ups and downs. All to often I see people come up to a table, just like I did and play with an under funded bankroll. This will most likely end in frustration.

This past week, I met with a publisher to determine the best method of publishing my actual roll data information. If nothing else, feel free to click on my ads.

Craps Table Plans

My next plan is to build a craps table someday. I have found numerous plans, but nothing seems to give the builder a complete set of instructions.

If you or anyone else you know has built a table and are willing to share the plans let me know.

Record Craps Roll Established in the Borgata

Have you heard of the lady who set the record for rolling the dice?
Playing for the second time in her life she bought in for $100 at a $10 minimum table at the Borgata in Atlantic City and rolled 154 times. She made 25 straight points - not bad for only your second try.
