@@davidrodriguez3195 If a number is marked and a 7 rolls, this is a "seven out", the dice always pass to next shooter. Yes, even though you are a winner with your don't pass bet.

The first time I played craps it was at a 25$ table. I ended up switching to don't pass after the 7 kept coming up. Most of the players shut up after I said I was betting don't pass to follow the dice. The dealer was the only one that stayed upset.

[@pamagee2011]

Here’s why I bet the don’t. When do you usually walk away from a table? After a 7-out is when I usually leave. It’s when everything is settled, and all of your chips are in your hand. If you are betting against the dice, your last event at the table is a win. It’s a small thing but I like it

Don't Pass/Don't Come is to Craps to what the Banker is to Baccarat; the push rule for a boxcar (12) may throw off some betters just like the 5% commission for the Banker bet in Baccarat, but its still the smarter play, and sort of becomes the insurance for sevening out in the point rolls.

[@ivanschonfeld2524]

Just watched your don't come video. Question: point established. place a don't come bet. Next roll is the point. The don't come loses or does it move to the point won? second q. If the don't come is put on the last point, what happens on the come out? If the point on which the don't come resides is thrown, I know you lose because this type of bet is always working. What happens if a 7 rolls am I paid or do I lose? 3rd q.can I take down the don't come before the come out roll? thanks

[@ColorUp]

The point or puck can be ignored for a dont come bet. The first roll it loses to any 7 or 11 while in dont come box. It would move to the old “point” if that’s what is rolled. Then wins with any 7, or loses if the number it’s on is rolled. The puck or main “point” doesn’t effect a dont come. Think of it as a game within a game. You can remove dont bets at anytime and casinos happily allow, because player takes risk on first roll, after that the player is more likely to win.

[@heartacheforever]

Thank you for great videos, I'm still learning and these videos are really appreciated. I never considered playing "the dark side" until now. I think mostly because I was sure at least one other player was holding a hangman's noose and ready to use it on me if I did play that way !

[@AirybrinkSkrizz8700]

😂😂😂 so true

[@RC6790]

I like playing the Don't Pass with one Don't Come. I like to hedge my Don't Come bet by adding odds to my DP and then taking it down after the DC is set. I can't tell you the number of times a seven hits while I am trying to establish the DC but let me tell you it happens rather frequently. The Martingale is a loser but I have good success with a mini bet up after each loss and a down bet after each win. On a 5 dollar table after each loss I add $2 to my next bet which is really good on a choppy table (lose one, then win one and I am ahead). I can lose usually up to 5 or 6 in a row and then with a couple of wins be pretty much back in the game whereas if was doing a straight Martingale I would be busting out or risking a bundle. On a 5 dollar table I buy in for $100 and if I am unlucky to lose it I do not continue the adding to the buy-in, I walk away. I would like to see you try this method on one of your videos - it's a grind but I have been winning quite often with it. I do play around with addition hedge bets when my bet rises after a couple of losses. A hedge such as a dollar on a hardway to increase my chances when the number is a 4,6,8,10 and when I am betting even higher amounts due to losses even a yo hedge on the establishing point for the DP or DC. I don't know if the Hardways and the yo are sound bets in those cases but they sure feel good when they hit. I treat the DP and DC winning and losing streaks as independent of one another - I may be back to the minimum bet on one and 3 or 4 losses in a row on the other. The beauty of this is two fold, first, I never lose more than my buy-in in any one session but I can and have won more than the buy-in on many occasions (my highest winning session at a 5 dollar table is $165 ahead), my second advantage is that often this is an up and down system I might be down by $40 and then go up which leaves me the option of when to leave the table - so if I am playing up and down for a while I can simply decide to color up when I am ahead, yes, I might only win $20 to $30 but if I am starting to feel a little tired, then take the money and run - rest and return later on.

[@andrewjones6157]

nice strategy

[@RC6790]

@@andrewjones6157 I played this for 40 sessions at live casino play and was up over $400 for one year with six losing sessions and 34 winning sessions. A number of winning sessions were smaller amounts where I chose to quit after playing for a while (try to quit ahead and when you get tired of the grind). One thing I failed to mention is moving up $2 each after several losses but after the next win the bet is adjusted down by $3. Betting $2 up after a loss and $3 down after a win is the ratio that creates a down draft which gets you back to the starting level. The amount you start your bet, of course, can be scaled to your bankroll, $5 table is merely an example.

[@CKAIDGAF]

What is the max amount of odds you can put behind a don’t pass? Does it follow a similar structure as pass for the usual 3-4-5 odds tables? I’ve heard it’s always up to six times but I can’t seem to clarify that anywhere...

[@ColorUp]

It is always 6x on a 3,4,5x odds table only. With the don't, max odds is based on the payout, not the amount bet. For example, on a 10x odd table, if your don't bet is $5 you could win $50 by betting $100 on the numbers 4 or 10 (payoff is 1:2) In this example you bet 20x to win back the table max of 10x because the odds pay 1:2. Hope this helps you some.

My question is if I place a DC bet and it goes to a number say for instance 4 and the point is 10, say 10 hits and the puck is off should I be working on the come out and if I am working on the come out and they roll a 4 do I win or lose

[@ColorUp]

Don't bets are always working. So if you have a DC bet that traveled to the 4, the puck being on or off does not effect this game. A 4 will lose the bet, a 7 will win.

[@JahThaGod12]

should’ve mentioned that on the Dont Come u can call out “No Bet” if u don’t want to lay on that number like a 6 or 8, i jus learned that

[@havefun3532]

Color up, I am in Colorado and here we have a $100 max bet limit. How would you play max odds on the Don't pass? Knowing that I need to lay more odds to make the bet, I'm a little confused what the flat bet should be to be able to make the most out of this?

[@ColorUp]

I have just recently moved to CO! I never make a $100 so I'm not positive. But I have read it is a hard $100 limit, so with the Don't, on a $5 table with 10x odds allowed you could bet $100 on the 4 or 10 to win back $50 for example. Odds of $75 would win back $50 on the 5 and 9, and $60 would win $50 on the 6 and 8. Obviously this is effected by your base bet and the odds allowed. So if you raised base bet up to $10 on a 10x table you could lay $90 on the 6/8 to win back $75

[@havefun3532]

@@ColorUp wow that's great! What area did you move to? The weather here is great. Nothing too extreme either direction with regards to climate. I was thinking to put a flat $16 and Max odds. But the odds bet (it any bet) cannot exceed $100. So since the tables here I think are 3,4,5x odds does that apply to don't pass bets? Or is don't pass and don't come always set for 6x the flat?

When I went, and my memory may be off, all the tables were 5 or 10 times. 6x the flat is always the case when on a 3,4,5x table. I moved up into the Rockies NW of Denver, the weather is.....well it was 9' the other morning yikes cold.

I used to be a casino and craps dealer for several years and have played craps numerous times. What I have noticed that very very few people even play the Don’t Come bet. It is rarely played. I don’t mess with it. If I want, I will lay a 4 or 10 and pay the vig as a hedge against a seven out. The few people I saw play it will chicken out if a six or eight rolls and wave it off. So basically you have people hoping for crap or a 4 or 10 and lay odds. Honestly I think dealers wouldn’t mind if Dont Cone was taken off of the layout.

[@ec2367]

Would it make sense to make a 6/8 place bet when playing don’t pass and don’t come?

[@corey41837]

Yes. But you should bet at least 2 units on the don't pass. That way you'd win on 6/8 and about break even on 7. And lose on point. Great system in my opinion

[@jimklemens5018]

My favorite strategy is to start with a $100 Don't Pass bet and then add $80 to $110 on the inside numbers, depending on the point.

[@PAPITO_49]

What is the key to calculate the vig laying the 6 or 8?

[@ColorUp]

5% of your expected win. Lay bet pays 5:6 on the 6 or 8, so if you bet $30 you win $25 minus $1.25 vig. (5%) depending on your casino they will round down to $1 or up to $2

[@SkillandLuckCRAPS]

Something you have never covered. Where do I find what the house edge is on each No Number once they have a bet on them? If you know please say here. Example from a Don’t Come bet of $10. When the DC bet travels to become each “No Number”. I know how each one works and how they pay with and without odds. I just want to know the house edge % of the no 4, no 5, and no 6 when they are each established.

[@ColorUp]

Edge for a don’t or DC, stays same at 1.36% now if you were to make a no bet (lay bet) direct on the number, here is a video that shows house edge kzbin.info/www/bejne/hme9eGqKpMt8jpo

@@ColorUp I like the concept because once the point is established, if a seven hits the first or second roll then you’re still making a profit, if it hits the third, then it’s only a push, you’re not losing any money, I would likely only go up to 4 numbers working at once if it gets that far, and if the bank roll calls for it haha

[@jaytang4954]

y take odds on the dont? when the puck is on you should have postive ev but a true odds has no ev so you would be lowering the positive ev percent at that point should you just flat bet the dont and raise it up to higher units instead of the minimum?

[@ColorUp]

If you raise your flat bet up, you are risking more against the most probable number for the come out, but after point is established you are for sure in great position. As far as taking odds, its a completely fair bet, and really doesn't effect the initial bet one way or another. If you want to get more action on the number, then take odds, it increases the volatility of your bankroll, it does not increase your chances of winning.

I don't care to play with don't betters. It's just that most players are pass line and come betters. I don't think there's any real advantage to being a don't better. And yes I've heard all the arguments! The problem with pass line betters is they tend to play all the sucker bets. Everything from the CE, hard ways, hops & fire bets! Where as don't betters usually have to have a large bank roll because they get paid less and only play don't pass and don't come with odds. And whether you are on the right or wrong side that's the way to bet. Everything else is just a sucker bet and drains your bankroll. Although I only play pass line and come bets with odds, I do enjoy watching all the pass line betters making crazy sucker bets! And its fun watching them win.

@@katiekaisersmith I wish I could switch from pass to a don't pass when the point is 4 or 10 because those are the best numbers for don't pass player to have as a point. I found out this play wasn't allowed a few days ago I was a little sad.

[@tboneproductions2453]

Was wondering if it’s ok to increase your odds your laying as the hand goes on? For example: Start by laying single odds then increase them as the hand goes on and your waiting on the seven. Statistically the likelihood of a seven should increase with each non seven throw. And yes, I do understand that each roll is an independent event. However, long term the bell curve of numbers must average out. Thanx

[@ColorUp]

Yes, you can increase your odds or lower or remove your odds at anytime after the point is set.

Can you do a video on crapless craps? I heard that you can make bank with the right strategy. I played it once and got murdered. Seems like it's a big hit at the casino I frequent.

[@ColorUp]

I should...the big difference is there are more "poor" bets available to make with crapless craps. Not sure it would be better to "make bank" as typically it provides higher house edge on most bets.

[@paradiso4562]

I don't understand. Don't Come just seems to add more numbers that you lose on, when the number that you win on, 7,stays the same. Increasing the risk of losing.

[@ColorUp]

There are 6 ways to roll the 7, a don't come bet is a bet on the 7. If the don't come bet is on any other number, 4 thru 10, there are always less ways to roll that number. So the don't come always has more ways to win than to lose.

[@katiekaisersmith]

Hi, If I'm playing the don't pass, wouldn't it be smart to make place bets on the 8 and 6, then I have bets on the 3 numbers that come up the most? If it sevens out I would only lose $4 instead of $44 because I have my don't pass. And I would hopefully win on the 6 and 8 a lot before it seven's out. Also, it seems silly to lay odds on the don't pass if the point is 6 or 8, since they are so likely to come up.

[@katiekaisersmith]

Am I right?

I know that career dealers hate these things, but yesterday I played at one of those electronic tables on a casino boat. I genuinely missed the “real” action, clicking of chips, interplay with the dealers, etc. But if I’m playing “the don’ts” I’ll be more comfortable at these tables where nobody can see my bets because they are only visible on my monitor.

When I was a kid, I had a craps computer game that paid even money on don't pass/come odds bets. I don't even think it had to be the point to take odds, you could just bet against 4,5,6,8,9,10 at any time for even money. I figured it HAD to be like this at the casino since it was like that on my game, and couldn't WAIT to be 21 so I could a killing at a real casino.

[@gustavonieto4632]

Question about turning off Bets: it's my understanding you can turn off "any" bet except the Pass and Come bets as they are contract bets. it's also my understanding you can turn off your Come Odds, and that if they are turned off at the moment of a seven out, the Come Odds are pushed whereas the come bet is lost. What about Don't come bets with odds? can you turn off both the Don't come Bet and the Don't come odd? or just the Don't come odd? and if you do have the option to turn off the don't come bet, can you turn off just the don't come odd? Probably NOT of consequence as I doubt anyone ever does it, but just curious about the ability to turn off bets. thanks!

[@ColorUp]

Sounds like you have everything correct. As far as the donts, they are not contract bets, because after the point is established the player is more likely to win vs the casino so they will happily let you remove the bet. So you can remove or lower the odds or the main bet as you wish....not a great idea, but you are allowed.

old video and the maths right but technicality, their superstition means it does or could effect THE outcome just not the odds at infinitum because of the effect. Like if their getting slightly irritated and throw the dice harder or quiver. Even very minutely butterfly effect style, the combination of the extra smooth surface in a specific location followed by an exhaled sigh altering the airflow in response altering the dust and lay of the felt making the die spin a little bit less before hitting the wall causing it to bounce instead of rotate.. Yes these are insanely out of our perception and reach in real time especially but it is also reality and the physical truth of the shorter term that is a single roll.

Adding additional odds, Begins to give the edge back to the house. Just like adding Odds behind your pass line bet lowers the house edge conversely adding to the dark side would raise the house's edge.

[@ColorUp]

Ricardo Cortez Douglas this is incorrect, laying odds is a statistically fair bet with zero house edge. The more you lay, the lower the house edge average decreases. It does not increase your chance of winning any more though.

[@vitoruffalo2576]

Color Up I went to the Wizard of odds page and it would seem that he agrees with you. I guess it does make sense if the edge is zero, it would be zero, no matter how much you stack next to your initial bet. Love your channel.

Hold em guy here. I'm in the casino, I hear lots of cheering in the background. Yet at my table it is just chip clanking, the occasional snarky comment about chasing the flush or bad beats. Perhaps a "just this one time" plea before the river. I listen to this video and it sounds like another language. But the ever present social interactions are muted playing no limit tx hold'em, particularly compared to a game like craps. I cant help but want to join in on the banter over there where people are crowded together, drinks in hand laughing with neighbors. Certainly there are the sighs and shaking heads after a loss, as well, but it's like a whole other universe by comparison. How many hours have I spent playing cards and doing fairly well. Yet the grinding boredom after 4 or 5 hrs gets to me. 18 years into the art of the wager and I want some fresh concepts. That said, dice and craps scare the hell out of me. Yet I imagine if I watch these videos enough and perhaps download an app to try some of these things out, I may actually start to understand wtf is going on. Cheers and thanks for putting out these videos

What?

[@GardensoftheAncientsHerbal]

It’s all about probability. Wager more if you understand the probability is in your favor pull back if it’s not. The probability of a 7 increases everytime it doesn’t hit. Same for all other numbers.

[@ColorUp]

Nope, probabilities reset after every roll. Each roll is independent. Every roll there is a 1 in 6 chance of 7 rolling. Whether it’s been one roll or 100, the next roll has same probability

[@GardensoftheAncientsHerbal]

@@ColorUp it’s technically 6 out of 36 and to be more exact for the non lamens, volatility and odds has more to do with reality than the strict definition of probability. If a seven hits over and over the volatility increases and odds of hitting seven decreases. My dads friend worked in the gambling division of Konami, as a child they challenged me to test their games. I learned that when and how much you bet has more to do with winning than the actual odds on paper. The way I beat the games almost in a determined way by was wagering below 1 percent of your bag and doubling down and pulling in a patterns then walking when up. In fact the that’s why they force black jack players who count cards to to flat bet because they can’t bet down against the odds. Casinos know this and Is the main reason they kick out gamblers. I figure if they kick you out over it it must work. And I have been banned for playing craps and black jack at all MGM resorts unless I flat bet playing black jack at the higher end establishments that require over $100 bets, Or craps that requires a minimum $25 bet. Yes 6 out of 36 in real life does equate the same as 1 out 6 but on paper but in practice it’s 6 out of 36 otherwise the mathematicians wouldn’t say 6 out of 36 and then in annotate 1 of 6. Technically the same on paper but in a real world scenario it’s not the same unless you are in the thousands of rolls….. one out 6 can be determined in hundreds of rolls 6 out 36 is only proven to be determined by thousands of rolls.

[@ColorUp]

Technically 6 out of 36 is the exact probability as 1 out of 6. And no if a 7 hits multiple times, the odds of 7 does not decrease. It remains the same. You can look back at past results and see and define the volatility, but the next roll is same odds as last roll, and every roll after that.
