Press Moves Craps

  • Many craps strategies involve multiple components, like pressing bets, that need to be remembered when rolling. Learn a tip or two that will help you remember to press your bets at the table Pressing Bets: An Important Component To Craps Strategies To Remember.
  • 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.
I'll take these one set of sisters at a time. For example, betting the Six and Eight, the Five and Nine, and the Four and Ten.

The two progressions mentioned last time are the press-and-pull (or the pull-and-press variant) and the up-a-unit. The press-and-pull progression alternates between press ing the place bet when the number hits and pull ing the profits when it hits. The up-a-unit progression adds one unit to.


Six and Eight Press Moves
PressLet me preface this by saying that on MOST hands you'll do much better over the long run to take a couple of hits and down. However, you'll never score one of those four or five figure wins doing that, so lelt's go:

Press Moves In Craps


I bet the inside numbers for $15 each - or $66 inside. I bet the four and ten for $25 each right off the bat. However, I don't bet all the numbers on every shooter. I will start every shooter off with $18 each on the Six and Eight. Any other bets made are a result of charting current trends - or are based on observation of the shooter's ability and results on a previous round. So let's start with the Six and eight at $18each - $36 total Investment.
First hit on either number - I collect $21 and 'same bet' it.
Second hit on either number - I drop $3 on top of the $21 pay off and tell the dealer to press me to $42.
Third hit on my pressed bet - Collect $50 for $1 ($49 net)
Fourth hit on the pressed bet - Power Press to $90.
I should note here that if the sister number hits during all of the above we just 'same bet' it. We want most of our action on the number that's showing up the most often, so if we've been pressing the Six and the Eight suddenly takes off we can move the bets around and put the larger sum on the number that's hitting.

The rest of the progression just repeats what we've done so far - but you add a zero to the base numbers. Again, only press the dominant number. Let the sister pay the bills for you to roll around.
