Even your home table and dice know what you’re up to, lol. If you were at a casino playing the iron cross, and hitting 20+ rolls before the seven,you’d quit your job with these kind of roles, and be on easy street. Seems like the seven knows when you’re playing the don’t😆😂🤣 “GREAT VIDEO! Thank you

[@ColorUp]

Exactly, don’t need a “rigged” electronic craps game, the dice gods just know what I’m up to and do their thing haha

[@jemhobbies]

The biggest change I would make is to limit my losses on a single shooter so once a second number hits I would stop replacing the bets and wait for the next shooter. That would have turned this session into a winning one.

[@ColorUp]

Yes, it’s much easier to do that playing the donts only getting knocked off one number at a time, it’s easier to limit loses like you suggest

[@BryanCarthell]

Here in NJ, the Hardways are off by default on the comeout, so if you have a 4,6,8,10 DC with the hardway hedge, make sure to call those Hardways working. I also, so something similar to this when the tale turns cold, though I only do 1 DP and 1 DC and lay odds on the "better" number.

[@josephkhan5395]

"I guess this is why I'm known as the strategy killer" LOL

[@elvinvee3423]

I’m off on my bets , after 5 roles .. no matter how hot the roller is .. limit losses keep in the game and have fun .. it will keep you focused ..and will teach you to not get attached .

[@dpd2k105]

GSR is a great casino, excited they added the play to win craps table I will try it out on my next trip

[@jimcartwright4379]

It’s great to learn how to play all the bets of the game. Simple is always the best.

[@muhammadcurtis6759]

Dark side strategies are great when big red is coming a lot, but I always shy away from using such strategies since they don’t excite me lol. The way you were shooting to begin this strategy was pretty exciting since you hit 3 points.

[@juanesquivel9113]

Great strat for a cold table and they are plenty at the casinos. Going to las Vegas in 2 weeks and Ia m for sure going to try this one>

[@lunarwrase]

Thanks for all you do. I’m learning a lot. My daughter says she is playing with Clifford the big red dog. Confuses people that don’t know the cartoon.

[@gscop1683]

i agree with Jeff. Im either going light with small bets with this shooter after first point hit, or waiting for a cold shooter. Looks like laying two numbers would have been profitable with the PSO shooters rather than DC.

[@juanesquivel9113]

Thanks!

[@NivaldoHernandez]

Thanks for the informative video. I love that art deco table layout. Very unique! Where did you get those chips (cheques)? I'd love to get a set for my home set up.

[@ColorUp]

This is a table from the Grand Sierra resort and casino in Reno. I’m using their roulette chips, so they are not available publicly.

[@jamesnewberry2945]

never lose more than once to any shooter drop the hard ways and 11 12 level your bets move off DP use the DC hedge 10 or 4 1 roll and down only make 3 DC this will improve your play dramatically

[@williamcarey8529]

As a dark side player I always place a bet on the seven on the come out roll; that way you could avoid devastating losses.

[@alexrosenblum9106]

Smart how much compared to your don’t pass. Like will you win anything or break even if it hits a 7 on the come out?

[@inked_icons]

World bet baby!

[@GoldenGate003]

done.

[@victorlaporte7090]

My question is related to how you enter into a playing session. Do you go in with one strategy in mind, and it's do or die, or do you have a couple of strategies in mind when you are playing? If I were playing this strategy and someone just rolled 20 numbers, I would have lost my mind and given up that strategy. Besides everyone at the table would have been laughing at me:)

[@ColorUp]

I just go on with one strategy usually and that’s why I have enough money for 10 shooters. Some will lose, but hopefully a good hand or 2 will put me ahead. I feel like when I switch up strategies I end up just chasing loses.

[@donwelch6612]

i see your luck hasn't changed much over the years.

[@harrymingelickr883]

The name would be pronounced goo dro or good row depending on where you are in the states. As a dark side player it has been my experience that a $400 buy in is rarely sufficient to survive in most strategies. But it's an interesting concept.

[@Listener827]

Problem with dark side only strat is there's no way in the strat to deal with a decent roll, and nothing for the long roll. Unless the table's cold, it's not gonna work. Using the don't to protect lite-side play for a blended strat, is the smart way to go. Match that with going Big for 2-3 rolls, then reducing down and using Casino Dollars is smartest. Had this strat used blended strat with going big x 2-3 rolls, then reducing down to CD you'd have made over $600 or more.

[@angelquiles2157]

I dont rhink i would place that bet on 12. Im ok with the bar 12 on the dont.

[@MrZola1234]

Little to much betting on the high vig bets in the middle for me. I like a simple 2 points with double or true odds.

[@georgesockett3316]

im not a big fan of a dont pass bet..i prefer to place numbers along with a field bet for 3 rolls then do dc bets before taking down my bets on the 5th roll..I especially dont like a dont pass bet when I have dc bets in play on the comeout

[@sleong]

Never recovered from that first roller. He lost 25% of his bankroll in like 15 min...

[@justwangit]

What a monster roll to start

[@ColorUp]

Yeah, not great for dont strategy haha

[@justwangit]

@@ColorUp thats why we love your channel! No re-rolls!

[@ColorUp]

Appreciate it. Just trying to show reality as best I can.

[@johnt.mickevich2772]

Pardon my newbie-ness, but you can play those $1 bets regardless of the table minimums?

[@ColorUp]

Typically yes. Once the table is at $25 minimum though, those $1 bets become $5

[@ericbentsen1785]

You can lose 10 times on the DP on one shooter, or lose 10 times on the PL with 10 shooters (or one shooter).

[@adsy6819]

One of your best rolls! Shame for the strategy lol

[@ColorUp]

Ha, true

[@miker6402]

Whether it's the dark side or the light side, I am not really fond of a strategy when you don't have a chance to make money on most rolls. In this case, having no bets on more numbers than you actually have bet doesn't help you make money

[@mikemccall169]

Way to sell the Dark Side, Jeremy. You may want to run through this one again.

[@ColorUp]

Not great timing for a huge roll ha, but that’s what the dice wanted to do today. Strategies get one roll with me. I don’t re-roll to make look better or worse.

[@golfsoc]

Can only win once per shooter & can't push so need a run of getting all 3 in place then getting big red to hit to have a chance of getting ahead - not for me

[@paule.9638]

❤️ dark side strategies

[@ColorUp]

Don’t work when you have huge roll like I had ha

[@jimcarrington6744]

@@ColorUp but these videos do not reflect live casino action, as they're meant to be instructional I stop playing don't strategies when the table is hot, & I only start playing the dark side after seeing a cold table. The dice run in streaks, no matter what the odds say. (feel free to do a video where you switch from hot to cold or vice versa, explaining a switch trigger)

[@ColorUp]

How do they not reflect live casino action? It’s random. tables can switch from “hot” to “cold” in one roll. We can’t define a cold table until after we see the rolls. Table is cold, now I’ll switch to dark and keep winning until it switches back. If only it were that easy we’d all be rich.

[@paule.9638]

@@ColorUp 👍🏻

[@jimcarrington6744]

@@ColorUp Because when you're making a video, you're instructing a strategy. Your choices are pre-determined. In casinos, there is live action, & some times crowded, & some times intoxicated. You might not believe in beginner's luck, in craps, but I've seen enough of it to bet on it. lol I simply don't want to miss another monster roll, so I ALWAYS switch after 2 consecutive losses on the don't. I've seen some MONSTERS, haven't you? (totally different in casinos, instead of practice at home)

[@capnjojoclips7827]

Stradegy for you : F**k the Five -155 no five -6 and 8 $30 each -10 or 15 field bet Once you hit a 6 or 8 twice come down on your lay behind the 5 and ride out the roll however you like .... use your field or 6 and 8 hits to make more place bets, press your bets, or just collect

[@Enzolex0204]

Haha do this and i bet you wont see a seven when needed 😂😂

[@kenwatanabe7712]

Seems like a slow bleed system

[@DWeirich76]

7 is the most common number to roll but only rolls 6 out of 36 times... so there are basically 30 ways not to roll a 7.

[@umpdaddy1]

I'm really not trolling here but I have to tease you by saying that if I ever see you shooting on a table, I'm betting against you. LOL

[@patrickprendergast9589]

hay troll

[@ColorUp]

well if you bet the dark side against me with a roll like I had in this video, you’d lose money. See you at the tables 😀

[@johncarr2629]

Where can I play $5 or $10 tables in Reno?

[@ColorUp]

Only $5 table currently is the roll to win table at GSR, but you can find $10 table all around town, downtown ceasers properties are always higher, and weekends many tables go up to $15

[@slloyd9892]

Roll to win was broken down yesterday. 10 dollar table went to 15 as soon as it filled. The bubble craps always 5 or more/less. The electronic craps machine stay away from. You bet 5 it pays 4.60. Atlantis and Peppermill always 10 dollar table and the Nugget is 5 most the time.

[@stewea57]

Looks like you would have done better doing come bets instead of DC bets

[@ColorUp]

If only I could see the future 😉

[@Coach_G_high_desert_CA]

Weird table layout, covering the don't is okay.

[@jameslinzmeier368]

You convieniently missed the 11 and 12 wagers for quite a while, then when it hit you decided to pay it as if it were bet when it wasn't. I LOVE playing the darkside. and laughing at many of these "strategies".

[@ColorUp]

Thanks for watching

[@jimmykearns7464]

Wouldn't LAYING the 4 on the come out roll be wise? Then pull it once point is made...

[@ColorUp]

Depends if the 4 or 7 rolls

[@jimcarrington6744]

If laying the 4, it makes better sense to lay both the 4 and 10. (half as much on each) That way, only one of them can lose, but both can win & it is easier to recover a loss, with less bankroll.

[@blackmagick77]

Your luck is always reversed lol. Thankfully its just a demonstration and not live x.x If I saw you live doing a dark side strat, I'd have to max odds amd max bet across the numbers :p

[@ColorUp]

Haha, yep, called the opposite strategy

[@gdkadventure]

My thought too! I hope we can play together someday. I know to bet opposite you. Thanks.

[@MrLeviaFUN]

I'm 100% dark side player. If it wasn't for that first shooter J, I think you'd be up

[@ColorUp]

Oh for sure, but the dice decided to show otherwise for opening roll

[@tzadiko]

Hard ways have a terrible house edge. That terrible house edge does not go away one bit just because you're using it to "hedge". Whether it's a hedge or a straight bet is all in your mind. It makes no difference in your final winnings or losses. If you would never bet only hard ways all night, then you should never bet them as hedges either. A bad bet is a bad bet.

[@ColorUp]

Technically, there are no positive edge bets, so every bet will lose money. Yes hardway bets will lose more money over long term with higher house edge, but it’s all gambling and you have to beat the odds to win, whether that’s with low or high house edge bets. no one is beating the casino and math of game by only sticking to low house edge bets, so play the game however you enjoy.

[@thomasgregory915]

The shooter has no protection for a long roll. I would place numbers, play the field as protection against a long roll

[@ColorUp]

That’s true, but long rolls happen less often. Avg roll lasts 8.5

[@thomasgregory915]

@@ColorUp even if it was seven rolls you could play them to the 7th and call them off that way you increase your chance of winning a little more

That Hard 8 wasn't working. Unless he makes them always working.

East coast primarily off by default, west coast primarily on

[@jimklemens5018]

@@ColorUp I saw a guy that was completely hammered drunk get asked if he wanted his hardways working and he mumbled something. I was standing right next to him and couldn't hear. A few seconds later, a hard 8 rolled and the dealers pushed about an $1100 win in front of him. The dealers asked him if he wanted to take his bets down. It was a huge stack of $5 and $1 cheques that he had been accumulating and pushing into the hard bets. I think the boxman wanted him off the table before he passed out. They colored him up real quick!

[@Enzolex0204]

You havent won one roll 😂😂😂

[@tzadiko]

Why not just stick to Don't Pass and Don't Come, with odds... house edge of 0.8% with single odds. You're ruining it with the hard ways, not to mention that you're betting against yourself, since the hard ways lose on the 7. What's wrong with just letting yourself win on the 7? I'll never understand hedges... makes no sense to me. It's like you're afraid to win (because the hedges take away your winnings) and afraid to lose (which the hedges never fully protect you from). Skip the fear man. Pick a side and go with it, whether it's light or dark side.

[@ColorUp]

Thanks for watching, I roll other peoples strategies in these videos. Everyone likes to play different. you can’t beat the game with math, no matter how low the house edge is, it’s still a negative EV. The dice have to roll in your favor to win.

[@creightonhart5654]

NEVER HEDGE AGAINST THE DON'T!!!!! Thats playing scared. Why play scared when you have the advantage? Also if you don't play odds then you're not playing craps....
