Betting on Yourself

[@darrenkennedy5990]

Oh yes made Off like a bandit.

[@ktnotter]

Beautiful table, great camera angle. Your mechanics are masterful. You can hit the same spot and your dice stay together in the air. You prove the point this game is not merely the "luck of the dice".

[@El_Toro]

Thank you my friend

[@mjm1012]

Like that dice set 45 65. Good stuff and rhythm!~

[@El_Toro]

Thank you sir

[@michaelmarek7576]

Great video... Glad to see your videos are being pushed again.. Looking forward to seeing some new ones .

[@El_Toro]

Hey Michael, it’s been a while for sure. Working on posting one soon. Still have to wait for the green light from KZbin. Thanks for being supportive. Appreciate you my friend.

[@KeepRunnin_Crit]

Yesirr this is confidence & mechanics at its finest with a couple luck throws, Salute 🎲 Shooter I now have a new light heavy strategy : all ways bet on yourself!!

[@no7sdiceclub007]

I always preach it on my channel also ..reduce down...it's easier to collect money on table then to replace money on the table. Great Video, like the different dice combos.

[@El_Toro]

Thank you my friend

[@leonelgonzalez8408]

Great video again Thanks for your Knowledge I like you using different dice sets we have to adjust to different table 😎

[@El_Toro]

Thank you sir

[@musellmadness]

That was key bringing your bets down when you was about to make the ATS . I always keep my bets on and it always costs me. This is a new way for me to view that situation and not be greedy while at the table... #regression

[@darrenkennedy5990]

Great video. Love the camera set up there and the dice set. Might try that next time.

[@El_Toro]

Let me know where you'll be playing, If I'm close by, I might just show up

[@darrenkennedy5990]

That would be great. Would love to meet some time.

[@El_Toro]

Darren Kennedy , where do you play mostly?

[@darrenkennedy5990]

Well I’m a truck driver so pretty much any casino with truck parking and craps and I try to get there. Looks like I’ll be stuck in Los Angeles until Sunday so thinking about heading up to Vegas for a day. I like hitting off strip casino there like the Orleans or Fremont street casino’s

[@jabronsparks7284]

I like that dice set. Great videos keep them coming

[@El_Toro]

Thank you sir

[@runtoeat]

At 19 min. you did not pay yourself when hitting the point 5. I think you had a quarter and 60 odds. Your video was well explained and informative. Thanks for Dice set for ATS numbers.

[@hardattackdj]

joe jakovac was going to point that out too

[@GeorgeFromCy]

joe jakovac exactly right bro. That puts his winnings just over $1,000. 👍🏻

[@El_Toro]

I finally watched it back last night after making the thumbnail. I knew I wasn't going crazy when I thought I brought the place bet down behind the pass and went to 60. In trying to stay focused on the content, I get distracted. I guess I made more money!

[@ronkorenek7529]

Great video, I’m practicing every day, trying to mimic your dice throw and control, however, I have a long way to go to be consistent. Once again a great thanks for all the work you put into your videos.

[@El_Toro]

Thank you sir, this is a lot of work but I enjoy the game that much.

[@waylonswaycraps]

The tables in Biloxi MS are like trampolines lol the dice go all over the table! Should be illegal

[@CheeseGrits_and_Nyquil]

Can you get into a bit of detail on your in line? I’ve tinkered with it but I’m not sure what I really should be doing with it. Thanks. Nice toss Mr T.

[@El_Toro]

Of course, let me know what you would like to see so I break it down correctly

[@CheeseGrits_and_Nyquil]

El Toro Dice Club I guess the whole mechanics. Angle and such. I don’t seem to understand how to make the throw so what it’s supposed to do because I just can’t get it to work.

[@El_Toro]

Gotcha.... this is going to be a bit long but I'll break it down. The Grip: For you to get the dice lined up, you will start with a standard 3 finger grip only turned 80-90 degrees to the back wall so they are moving in-line. you then drop either your little finger or ring finger behind the back of the dice to help push just in case the grip is too loose. The index finger should be lined up on the top front corner to edge of the front dice. The thumb should be more towards the back dice to keep it steady. Your grip should be very loose, just barely holding the dice. The Stance: Your shoulders should be facing either the receiving back wall or the opposite corner or rounded side. Keep from hunching over or leaning towards the table. You want to stay square to your target. The Back-swing: The dice never come up from the table, you slide them back about 6 - 8 inches, until the wrist is in place and your elbow is straight, don't completely lock it out. Your wrist and arm are now set. This works great from SR1- SRHook & (Table End - unless your under 5'6" then the rail is too high). Forward Motion: Focus on your target and look at exactly where you want the dice to land, lock that in. Begin movement by raising your hand and arm as one unit, your shoulder is the fulcrum and does the work not your arm or bicep. Keep your wrist locked in place during this forward motion. Once your hand is in alignment with your locked in landing zone, then the dice are in position. The Release: This is the easiest part of all but the most difficult to get right. The fingers should be tight together to keep the dice from spraying all over the place in the air. The only moving part on the release is the thumb, and its not a big movement. The thumb just lets up enough so the dice are released, too much thumb and your dice start to spiral clockwise. Also if you release with your fingers the dice spiral counter clockwise. If the release is done correctly the dice will travel together in the same path just separating a bit, trailing each other with a slight draw to them. You will also be able to see the pips clearly as they travel through the air (Little to No spin). The Landing Zone: The moment of truth has arrived... If the dice have landed in your target spot, Congrats! If they have landed on the flat faces even better (sometimes they stick the landing like a gymnast). This is where there are many different opinions regarding dice movement and action. Some folks prefer the dice to just die and bounce once close to the wall (accomplished by counter directional spin on a standard overhand toss). Others prefer the dice to release the energy by rolling out on an axis. You have to decide what you like, it's your roll. On most of my videos, I prefer to land in the COME area about where the 9, 10 place bet boxes are. This lets my dice get on axis and roll out touching the back wall, very rarely hitting the pyramids. The Outcome: Results will vary, but practice. Remember, this isn't Sharp Shooting the Dice..... Hope this helps you to understand what goes into shooting the dice, Thanks again brother, for the positive feedback

[@CheeseGrits_and_Nyquil]

El Toro Dice Club thanks for the time and effort you have spent compiling the answer to give me :)

[@thomastokarz817]

Set the dice 5/6 on top. Don't worry about the sides then tose it to a corner it works good

[@mcchacho1]

Don't know if you are still checking the comments on this video, but if so, I would love to see a video on your grip, grip pressure, etc. for this toss from the end of the table. Do you use this toss and grip from stick right 1 and 2? I have worked extensively on my grip and toss from stick left 1 and 2 but not too comfortable from end of table and stick right 1 and 2.

[@kingsrule2555]

thx for the video Toro, I wonder how Vince's field multplier would work with that set? Maybe you could shoot a video. I know you aren't a fan of the field, but set a 100 max bet and collect blacks I think that set, with you as the shooter, makes sense.

[@El_Toro]

I've played around with the field bet concept, seems like I loose more than I win. Keep in mind, I shoot for the ATS. Now with this dice set, there is a big possibility that I might try it.

[@hoppinhoudini]

Great video,Do you use any other dice grips / tosses or is this in line toss mainly the way you roll ?

[@El_Toro]

I have several tosses and grips that I use. Position on the table and surface type determines which one I use.

[@dackmanbtjr5030]

El Toro, do you play with others who contact you? and how would one contact you bro.

[@sylviaalcalde1158]

Nice ❤❤

[@thomastokarz817]

I do the inline flow like what you did I was all over the different areas of the table I've been throwing more than twenty-five rolls every time I touched my hands and I set the dice for at 56421 I don't care what's around the sides

[@El_Toro]

The dice set itself is useless if the mechanics are no good. Awesome to hear, keep up the good work in practicing. Thanks again for the positive feedback.

[@glenthomason9636]

You didn't have a pass line to start shooting. Sure do like your strategies.

[@Curling12341]

tried the 6-5 4-5 in-Line today and had three great sessions of 19, 17 and 15 rolls respectively. REAL CONFIDENCE BUILDER.

[@josephdowler9344]

Great videos. Any advice on setting up my own practice table?

[@williamjohnson5877]

Pass line bet You are not allowed to throw the dice without a pass line or don’t pass line bet.

[@darrenkennedy5990]

Have you thought about trying to incorporate Vince’s hop the 30’s or do you think the hard ways are more lucrative for hot rate?

[@El_Toro]

I believe the hard ways are a better bet than hopping the 30's.

[@williamreid9766]

love your layout where did you get it from? keep up the great work you make craps fun and informative.

[@El_Toro]

It was custom with the table. I'll ask to see where he gets it from.

I usually start with hardway set 5/3 5/3 5’s on top then switch to El Toro’s set used in this video 4/5 6/5

[@Scotty__]

@@darrenkennedy5990 yes sounds like a plan ok thanks 👍 rolling

[@cottenclub9734]

I consider myself a decent shooter at this point... i roll 10-12 times before hitting the big red. But how do you decide when to pull out. I have taken money down and watch and it appears I pealed off too early, done the opposite too and lost my ass. so what’s your rule on staying up and pulling back?

[@Scotty__]

Instincts use your instincts if you find yourself throwing a long roll and your voice on the inside is telling you pull your bets down or turn them off then do so if you find yourself hitting a couple points play the short game

[@Scotty__]

You say you roll 10 to 12 times before you 7 out so count your rolls and when you hit eight rolls turn your bets off

[@cottenclub9734]

Sorry meant I know when I roll when to pull off. On a random shooter is where I get squirrelly
