Works on any table minimum, but $10 is the basis for this strategy.

1. Start with $10 Pass Line bet.
2. When Point is established, bet $75 on the Don't Come.
3. When Don't Come, or DC, is established, put down $30 in Pass Line Odds, Place $44 across on the rest of the available Place Numbers, and put $10 in the Come.
4. If a Place Number hits, the Come moves to that number. Use the Place winnings to add $20 in Odds to the Come Bet and rack up the rest. Make another $10 Come Bet. Repeat this until Point is hit or a 7 Out.

Marching Soldiers

This strategy can mostly function as a side bet, and can be taken down at any point in the process since it deals with moving Place Bets, which are not contract bets. This works with any table minimum, will demonstrate with $5 minimum; total investment per shooter is $7.

1. Make a $5 or 1 unit bet on either the Place 4 or 10. Have them working on the Come Out roll, or otherwise make the bet when you can do so after arriving at the table.
2. The whole point of the strategy is to use the winnings to power press the bet and shift it to the next number, pressing and moving until the bet makes it all the way across the Point numbers; if starting at 4, each hit will move the bet to the next number heading towards the 10. If starting at 10, each hit will move the bet towards the 4.
3. Starting from the 4, if the 4 hits, you'll win $9. Give the dealer $1 and move your bet plus the winnings to the 5 to make a $15 bet.
4. If the 5 hits, you'll win $21. Move your bet to the 6 and add the winnings to make a $36 Place 6 bet.
5. If the 6 hits, you'll win $42. Move the bet to the Place 8 and add the winnings so you have a $78 Place 8 bet.
6. If the 8 hits, you'll win $91. Once again, shift the bet over to the 9 and add the winnings. Give the dealer another $1 chip to make the bet $170 on the Place 9.
If the 9 hits, you'll win $238. If you've made it this far, move the bet over to the 10 and add the winnings. To make things easier for the dealers, collect $8 from the winnings and you'll be left with a $400 Place 10 bet.
7. Once the 10 hits at this point, collect and take everything down. Starting from a $7 investment ($5 on the 4, $1 for the first bet on the 5, and $1 for the bet on the 9), you'll end up with $1200. Again, at any point in this process, feel free to take down the bet to collect that money.

Negative Nellie

Start with $500 bankroll. A good plan for playing against the House when the table is cold or running into a lot of Point 7s.

1. Make a $30 Don't Pass bet before the Come Out roll.
2. Once Point has been established, Place $66 inside, so $15 each on the 5 and 9, $18 each on the 6 and 8.
3. If an inside number hits, regress all inside numbers down to 2 units each, so $10 each on the 5 and 9, $12 each on the 6 and 8. Collect the winnings, and use the $22 coming off of the inside numbers to place a $22 Don't Come bet.
4. If inside numbers hit again, regress all numbers down to 1 unit each; $5 each on the 5 and 9, $6 each on the 6 and 8. Collect the winnings, and again use the bets being taken off of the Place bets to put down a $22 Don't Come bet.
5. If inside numbers hit a third time, take down all the Place bets, collect winnings, and make one more $22 Don't Come bet.
6. Let the bets ride out through the roll and hope for a 7. Repeat after a 7 out. If the Point hits, make another $30 Don't Pass bet on the Coe Out, but let Don't Come bets ride until they are either hit and cleared or another 7 out.

Collect and Press 6 and 8

$5 table minimum

1. Start with $5 Pass Line bet. If 7 or 11 rolls, stack the winnings. If Pass Line wins again, stack up to $15 and pull out your initial $5 investment.
2. When Point is established, place minimum bets on the 6 and 8 along with the Field. If 6 or 8 is the Point, move that bet to the 5.
3. If Field Bet hits, immediately move winnings and initial bet up to Place numbers and Place from the center out. Cover the 5 and 9 first, then the 4 and 10. Do not Place the Point number.
4. If 6 or 8 hits, immediately press that Place Bet and replenish the bet in the Field.
5. Once Field Bet has moved up to the Place Bets, use the next Place Bet hits to cover the rest of the Place numbers.
6. Once Place is covered, treat each bet as individual bets; collect the first hit, press the bet on the second hit, and so on.
7. If the 4 or 10 rolls, immediately use the winnings to bump the Place bet up to $25 and Buy the number.
8. If Point is hit, stack the winnings just as mentioned in the first step. Once Pass Line bet starts to move up past the $25 or $30 range, start hedging with $5 Any Craps bet.

2. Bet 2 units across all of the Place numbers, including the point. $64 Across, so $10 each on the 4, 5, 9, and 10, and $12 each on the 6 and 8.
3. Every time the 4, 5, 9, or 10 hits, use the winnings to press the 6 and 8 up 1 unit each. For example, a $10 Place 5 will win $14 when it hits. Use $12 out of the winnings to press the 6 and 8 up $6 each.
4. Every time the 6 and 8 hit, collect the winnings.
5. Play by ear once initial $64 outlay has been recouped, otherwise continue following strategy until a 7 Out, then start back at the beginning with $64 Across.

1. Wait for a point or start out with $86 across; $10 each on the 4 and 10, and $66 inside.
2. Make a $1 Any Craps bet with each roll. Alternatively, cover the C & E or go $3 Craps and $2 Eleven.
3. Collect the first 3 hits, then regress bets to a level below the profits you've made. If you hit 3 Place numbers while making $1 Crap check bets every hit, you'll have a profit of $60. Regress bets down to $22 Inside and play on from there.
4. Let bets ride and collect hits, then press up as you see fit. Recommend moving into double-tap or triple-lux press system after collecting one or two hits from $22 Inside.

Big Bucks

There are a few variants to this strategy, but the original version calls for a $15,000 bankroll with a $3000 outlay. This can be modified into the same strategy using an $800 bankroll for a $160 initial outlay.

1. Wait for a Point to be established. Give the shooter a 1-count, or let them roll the dice one more time after the Point has been established before laying out your bets.
2. Place $3000 across all the Place numbers, so $500 bets on every number.
3. If a Place number hits, collect the winnings and immediately take all the bets down and wait for the next shooter. If Any number other than the Place Bets rolls, immediately take down your bets and wait for the next shooter.

$25 Table Variation:

1. Follow steps above, but Place $160 Across the Place numbers rather than $3000. $25 each on the 4, 5, 9, and 10, $30 each on the 6 and 8.
2. If any of the Place numbers hit, regress down to just having the 6 and 8 placed and take all other bets down.
3. One more hit on the 6 and 8 will lock in your profits, so from there start collecting, pressing, and spreading out to other numbers as you see fit. This is good if you want to stay up on your bets for the shooter rather than just sitting and waiting.

Pandemic Special

Meant for $15 minimum tables, which are becoming prevalent now during the Pandemic. Can potentially work with a $300 minimum bankroll.

1. Wait for point to be established.
2. Place $15 on the 5 and $18 each on the 6 and 8 after Point is established.
3. After one hit on the 5, 6, or 8, press all numbers up 1 unit, so a $20 5, and a $24 6 and 8.
4. After one more hit on the 5, 6, or 8, start betting $15 on the Field for every roll and let all bets ride until a 7 out.
5. You can start pressing or spreading out to the other Place numbers after 5 or 6 hits to ensure that your initial outlay has been paid for.

The Pass Over Method

Initial outlay of $110 with a $1000 bankroll, but can be scaled to work with any bankroll amount. Leave bets Off on Come Out roll.

1. Wait for a Point to be established. Feel free to play the All Tall Small for $5 if desired.
2. Once point is established, place $110 inside; $25 each on the 5 and 9, $30 each on the 6 and 8.
3. When any of the inside numbers hits, use the winnings and power press the adjacent place number; for example, a $30 Place 6 would win $35, so that would be used to press the 8 up to $66 adding $1 from your bankroll. Hitting the 8 would press the 9, hitting the 9 would press the 5, the 5 presses the 6, and so forth.
4. Go for 3 hits. No matter where the bets are after 3 hits, collect on the 4th hit and then take everything down to $110 inside. Repeat this progression until a 7 out.
5. Progression units:
   • 5 and 9: $25 - $60 - $86 - $120
   • 6 and 8: $30 - $66 - $90 - $210

3. If the 6 or 8 hits, immediately regress Place Bets down to $6 each on both numbers. If the 5 or 9 hit, immediately regress down to $5 each on both numbers.
4. If any Hard Ways hit, collect winnings and bump all hard Ways bets up $1. Keep up on all hard Ways and replenish them when they lose, keep bumping them all up when they hit and keep doing so until a 7 Out.
5. Once the 5, 6, 8, and 9 have been regressed, start power pressing. When any of them hit, immediately do a full press on the Place Bet. Start power pressing the 4 and 10 as well.
