The Doey-Don't System
Dear John: The "Doey-Don't" has been around for years and those who play it feel they are getting a smaller house edge against the casino in a random game of craps. Unfortunately, this is not true. If you are placing 11 dollars on both the Pass and Don't Pass or Come and Don't Come, you have $22 in action. That $22 faces an approximate house edge of about 1.4 percent, so you are losing about 31 cents each time you make such a "Doey-Don't" bet. Playing only the Pass or only the Don't Pass for 11 dollars reduces your loss in half. Thus, against random rollers, the best way to play is just using the Pass or Don't Pass, and the Come or Don't Come, not both at the same time. Secondly, tipping the dealers is a great idea but the worst tips are the ones with the high house edges and Big Red is the worst of the worst. The best tip is to put a bet next to or on top of your Pass or Don't Pass and let the dealers know this bet is for them. Since the house has only a small edge on these tips, the dealers make more money when they hit. The casino that told this guy to take his action elsewhere (assuming the guy wasn't obnoxious or drunk) is staffed by dopey pit people. Why would you ask a guy to leave who is making you twice as much money? That is a really idiotic move. For your great letter, I am giving you a free week on my members-only private web site at www.goldentouchcraps.com. There are over 5,000 members on this site and I think you will the posts interesting, educational and fun! All the best in and out of the casinos! Frank Scoblete |
