6 Using this Book The information in this book was developed to help you get started quickly and easily using the Automatic Craps Strategy. This strategy is fully described in the book - Automatic Craps. You should have a copy of this book by now as this publication - Diane's Craps Cheat Sheets, is distributed as part of the complete toolkit including the Automatic Craps Strategy. If you haven't yet done so, you should read the Automatic Craps Strategy. This book builds on the information presented in this manual and you may have trouble using the "cheat sheets" contained in this publication if you don't have a firm grasp of the Automatic Craps Strategy. This book is presented in several parts. First the Basic Betting Method (as described in the Automatic Craps manual) is summarized. The premise behind using the cheat sheets is that you only use the Basic Betting Method as your playing strategy. The Basic Betting Method is only one part of the complete Automatic Craps Strategy. If you want to use the complete strategy you will find it in the Automatic Craps manual. However, you can develop substantial winnings using just the Basic Betting Method. After summarizing this playing strategy we present the "cheat sheets" set up for each level of play. 6

7 The premise behind the cheat sheets is simple - A complete system is presented on each sheet, including a wallet-sized playing card. Whenever you want to play, you can just print as many copies of the cheat sheet for your level of play as you need. You will want to keep one cheat sheet intact for your reference. You can cut the Playing Cards from the extra copies of the cheat sheets and stick as many Playing Cards as you need in your pocket. You should have one Playing Card for each game you plan to play. As you play you can refer to the Playing Card as often as you like. If has all of the information you need to keep track of your betting level and determine exactly where to place your bet. If you are like me, you can put a small check mark next to each level of bets completed. 7

8 Review of the Basic Betting Method One of the soundest ways to play craps is only make one bet at a time. Two of the best bets to make at craps are the pass line and don't pass bets, the so-called line bets. Most players will make at least one line bet - usually on the pass line. Then they will make all kinds of crazy crapper bets - Come bets with outrageous amounts of odds, Prop bets, Hardways and then the even hedge these bets with Any Craps wagers and sometimes even throw a nickel on Big Red, the one-roll bet that wins if a 7 shows. The Automatic Craps Basic Betting Method gives you a powerful way to select your wager with a proven strategy for deciding how much to wager. I have discovered a method of selecting line bets that is very effective. I call this method of bet selection randomizing bets. It consists of using a series of ten 8

9 predetermined betting patterns used to select every line bet you make at craps. These bets are shown in Table 1 following. Table 1 Line Betting Patterns Betting Series Number Line Betting Pattern P = Pass Line, d = Don't Pass Using this method of selecting your bet is easy. When you start a game, you will begin betting using the series 1 betting pattern. You will stay in this series until you win a bet. In series 1, you will first bet P. If you wager wins, you will move to series 2 next and wager the first bet in this series on the next come-out roll. If the first bet in series 1 loses, you will continue to follow the betting pattern in the first series until you have a win. With any win, you move to the next series and start with the first bet in the series. 9

10 If these procedures are not clear to you, I suggest that you review the more detailed play-by-play examples in the Automatic Craps manual. To summarize this rule, continue betting within the same pattern of bets until you win a bet. As soon as a bet is won, you will move to the next pattern and start betting in that series moving from left to right. A betting progression is used with the randomized patterns. Betting progressions are predetermined betting strategies that entail either raising the size of a wager after a losing wager, or increasing the wager after a win. Winning one bet in each series of patterns completes a game. The amount of winnings for a game is easy to determine. One game always consists of completing ten line-betting patterns with one win in each pattern. The amount won for a series of ten bets will always equal the minimum bet you make times ten. If you use the betting progression , then winning ten of the patterns will give you a win of $100 (10 wins x $10 per win). If you use the progression , then a game win is worth $200 (10 wins x $20 per win). If you lose all five bets in a betting series, then the game is terminated. So, your rules for any game are: 1. You will complete ten winning betting patterns for a game, or 2. You lose five bets and in a row and quit. You will always use the betting progression combined with a specific pattern of bets for the Automatic Craps Basic Betting Method. It is simple and, very powerful. 10

11 A five level Martingale series, coupled with using the Line Betting Patterns shown in the previous table, produces extraordinary results. Table 2 shows the betting series and Game Bankroll needed for each level of play. In this table wagers ranging from ten cents to $ minimums are covered. Along with each Base Bet, the appropriate Betting Series is shown, as well as the amount of bankroll needed to play a game at that level. 11

12 Table 2 Different Buy-in Amounts and The Betting Progressions Used Base Betting Series Bet $ $ Game Bankroll The range of betting series presented is from a $0.10 minimum bet table, requiring a $3.10 suggested buy-in, all the way up to a progression using $125 as its base bet, which has a $6,000 suggested buy-in. While you will not normally find craps games with ten and twenty-five cent minimum bets in "brick and mortar" casinos, you will find a number of online casino offering these options. The beauty of this strategy is that you can start out small and move up to higher levels using your winnings to finance the moves up. 12

13 If you want to occasionally play craps with a very low risk of ever losing your bankroll, then the Basic Betting Method will work well for you. The only negative to this betting strategy is that at times it can become a little boring, especially if the shooter starts hitting box numbers and you have to sit on the sideline watching the players making come and place bets clean up. 13

14 Using a "Backup Betting Series" to Limit Losses A winning game is completed when one bet is one at each of the ten different levels of play. A losing game occurs whenever all of the bets in the betting progression are lost. If you are a $5 Base Bettor, you will be using the following betting series , for a total of $155 wagered. If you lose all five of these wagers, you will lose that game. Whenever you lose a game you will take a break before resuming play. The best way to play is to use a "Backup Betting Series" with each original series. A Backup Betting Series consists of a series of wagers that are exactly double the bets in the original betting series. If you are a $5 Base Bettor you will use the betting series The Backup Betting Series for this level of betting uses a $10 Base Bet and consists of the following wagers

15 For convenience, we will consider the original lower level betting series to be "Series A," and the second or higher betting series to be our "Series B." and B. For each level of bets we can select a pair of betting series to use as our Series A series For a $5 bettor, his A and B Betting Series would consist of the following betting Series Base Bets Betting Series Game Bankroll A $ $155 B $ $310 To use Series A and B requires a Bankroll equal to five times the Game Bankroll requirement for each level of Base Bet. Since $5 Base Bets require a Game Bankroll of $155, the total Bankroll needed to use the Series A and B Betting Series at this level is 5 x 155 = $775. The reason you will need a Bankroll five times the size of your Series A Game Bankroll is to cover the possibility of losing one game at the "A" Series level and two consecutive games at the "B" Series level. Let's compute this bankroll requirement for a $5 bettor: Game Bankroll for Series A $155 Game Bankroll for Series B 310 Game Bankroll for 2 nd Series B Game 310 Bankroll Needed $775 15

16 You will notice that this is the same as the amount we compute when we multiple the Series A Game Bankroll by a factor of 5. Series B is used with Series A as a "Backup Betting Series. Any time that you lose a game played at the Series A Level, you will play the next game at Series B level. Should you lose the second game, played at the Series B level, you should play one more game at this same level and then, win or lose, revert back to playing at the Series A level. You will find that using this concept of following up and Series A loss with a game played at the Series B level will greatly smooth out your winning. This concept has been tested for thousands of games and it produces consistent profits, even in the rare instance when you lose three consecutive games. 16

17 Summary of the Automatic Craps Strategy A winning game happens whenever you win one wager in each of the ten levels comprising a game. A losing game occurs whenever you lose all five of the bets in the betting series. Here's the preferred way of using this strategy: 1. Always complete ten betting levels per game, unless the loss of a 5-unit betting progression occurs. 2. Play 10 games per session. 3. Play three sessions to complete a Game Series 4. Start each series of games with one game played at Series B level. 5. Follow any loss with a game played at Series B level. 6. Limit losses to a maximum of two consecutive Series B games. 17

18 Tracking Your Bets Using Casino Chips If you don't like referring to the playing card before you make each wager, here's what you do. You can use casino chips to track the wager you will make. Here's how I do it. Let's suppose that you are just starting a game. You review the playing card and see the first two levels of wagers are as follows: Level 1 Wagers Level 2 Wagers As you know, you will start making wagers at each level and move from left to right (normal reading order) in making your wagers. If you lose a bet you will continue to wager at the same level until you have a winning wager. After winning any bet at Level 1 your next wager will be at Level 2. 18

19 Let's assume that you make three losing wagers at Level 1 before winning a bet and starting wagering at Level 2. You could just refer to your Playing Card before making each wager as it will show you where to bet. If you are playing online this is exactly the procedure you will follow. However, you may find that it is awkward to have to refer to your Playing Card after each bet is decided. I have never found any craps table that will object to just playing your card in the rail and consulting it as needed. If you refer to your card frequently you may get comments from other players or even the dealer, box man or floorman. If you have a thick skin then just ignore the comments or give some stock answer to questions about the card as "My brother-in-law wanted me to try out his system," and shrug your shoulders. If you would like a way to be able to make your wagers without referring to the card,, here's how you do it. Before you make your first wager, you can lay out casino chips in the rails in front of you to represent the wagers you will make at each level. You can use the far rail for wagers in the level you are currently wagering in and the close rail for the wagers you will make in the next level. Once you set your tracking chips up all you have to do is glance at the chips to know exactly where to play your next wager. In addition to using chips to represent where you will place your bets, you can also set down the next wager you will need to make if you lose your current wager. 19

20 By using this procedure you can quickly wager the correct amount in the right spot without hesitation and without having to refer to your card. Here's how you do it. To track where you will place your wagers, just assign a meaning to two of the levels of chips you have. As a $5 bettor, you might have $1 and $5 chips and you could assign values as follows: $1 chip = Pass Line Wager $5 chip = Don't Pass Wager Assuming you are just beginning a game, your wagers for Levels 1 and 2 are as follows: Level 1 Wagers Level 2 Wagers If you have $1 chips representing Pass Line wagers and $5 chips Don't Pass wagers, you can lay out chips in the two rails representing these levels of wagers as follows: Far Rail (Level 1) $1C $1C $5C $1C $5C Near Rail (Level 2) $5C $5C $1C $5C $1C 20

21 Using this system your first wager will be on the Pass Line as shown by the first $1C in the Far Rail. After you have placed your wager on the Pass Line you can remove the tracking chip used to represent you first wager from the tracking area and return it to your stack of betting chips. Thus, after making the first Pass Line Bet, your tracking chips will look like this - Far Rail (Level 1) $1C $5C $1C $5C Near Rail (Level 2) $5C $5C $1C $5C $1C You can tell at a glance that your next wager will either be on Pass Line (Level 1 -$1C), if you lose this wager, or on Don't Pass (Level 2 - $5C) if you win the wager and move down to the next betting level. Let's assume that you win this first wager and your next bet is in Level 2. Since you are now in Level 2, you can return all of the tracking chips in the far rail, representing Level 1 bets to your stack of betting chips. You will move the Level 2 chips to the far rail since this is now the level you are wagering in. You can glance at your Playing Card and see the wagers needing for Level 3 bets and set up the chips representing these wager in the near rail. If you follow this procedure, you will need to refer to your playing card briefly only after a winning wager and only after you have made the next bet. Using this procedure will let you play smoothly and without hesitation and without having to refer to your card very often. 21

22 In addition to using chips to track where your will place your bets as we have just illustrated, you can also use chips to track the size of your next wager. Let's assume that you are using the following betting progression in your play With this progression, your first wager at any level is always $10 and you will move to the next bet only following a loss. Here's an easy way to track the size of your next wager. After you make the first $10 wager at any betting level, first remove the tracking chip representing where that wager was placed. Following our earlier example, after making your first wager and removing the tracking chips, the tracking chips for your wagers will look like this - Far Rail (Level 1) $1C $5C $1C $5C Near Rail (Level 2) $5C $5C $1C $5C $1C If you want to track the next wager as well, just place chips equal to the required amount of you next wager to the left of each of the above tracking series. If you lose the current wager, you will be required to wager $20 on the next Level 2 wager. Place the $20 required for this bet to the left of the Level 1 wagers in the Far Rail. 22

23 If you win the current bet, your next wager will be for $10 in Level 2. Place the $10 required for this bet to the left of the Level 2 wagers in the near rail. Here's how all of your tracking chips will look after you make the first bet and set up your chips for both of the possible second bets - Far Rail (Level 1) $20 $1C $5C $1C $5C Near Rail (Level 2) $10 $5C $5C $1C $5C $1C Once you have set your chips up you can quickly make the next wager. If you lose your current bet, just wager $20 on Pass Line ($1C). After making this wager, you will remove the next wager tracking chip and set up the next bet required if you lose again. Your tracking chips will look like this - Far Rail (Level 1) $40 $5C $1C $5C Near Rail (Level 2) $10 $5C $5C $1C $5C $1C Now you can see at a glance exactly where you stand. If you bet loses again, you will bet $40 on Don't Pass ($5C). 23

24 If your wager wins, you will move to Level 2 and bet $10 on Don t Pass ($5C). This procedure is really easy to use once you get the hang of it and will allow you to relax much more when you play as you will not have to worry about constantly referring to you Playing Card to determine the size and placement of your next bet. 24

25 Summary of Base Bets, Betting Series and Bankroll Requirements The best way to use the Automatic Craps Strategy is to match your level of play to your available bankroll. Table 3 shows the Basic Bets, Betting Series, Game Bankroll, Bankrolls and Win Rates per 100 Decisions for various levels of play. We have covered the concepts of Base Bets, Betting Series and Game Bankrolls. The Bankroll is the amount you will need to have available to use a Backup Betting Series in the form discussed, where a loss of Series A bets is followed up with a game played at the Series B level. The Win Rates per 100 Decisions are based on thousands of game played using $5 Base Bet Series A games and $10 Base Bet Series B games. The win rates for different levels of play were extrapolated as win and loss rates are always proportionate to the betting levels. 25

26 The rate of 100 decisions per hour is fast for a land-based casino, but may be too slow for a online craps game. I used the 100 decision per hour rate because it is easy to convert this rate to either faster or slower win rates for purposes of estimating your hourly winnings. If you play exclusively in land-based casinos, you may want to cut these rates in half or by even two-thirds for slow games. If you play online more, your win rate may be as high as double the amount shown in Table 3. 26

28 Using Your Cheat Sheets Whether you decide to use casino chips to track your bets or just resort to writing down each bet, you will need to use Tracking Forms for each level of bets. On the following pages are "Cheat Sheets" for each level of betting. Each of these sheets shows you the Base Bets, Betting Series and Bankroll Requirements for each level of play. In addition, you will find a tracking form that you can carry with you and use to track each decision in every game. Below is a sample "Cheat Sheet" filled in for a player using $5 base bets. The first two rows recap the two betting progressions the player will use. The third row is filled in by the player showing the betting level used for that game. The first column shows the betting pattern for each level of betting. 28

29 Hash marks are used to record each bet. Let's follow the bets in the first game in this series of five games. The first column showed our player played using Betting Series B. I usually start off using the higher level betting series after I have accumulated winnings from previous games played. If this is my first game in this casino session I will usually start at the more conservative "A" Series until I build up some winnings. The results of each bet are recorded by making hash marks (show as "/"). Reading down the column for the first "B" level game, we see, It took two bets to win a wager at the first betting level. The second betting level required only one bet. The third level took four wagers The fourth level took two bets And so on until we record all of the bets in a game using hash marks. game. In addition to tracking each bet using a mark, we write down the results of each For the first Series B level game, we won ten wagers and made $100. After winning this game, we played the next game at the Series A level and lost -110 after losing our betting series. 29

30 We used Series B bets following the loss and won $100. This was followed by two consecutive winning games using Series A wagers, winning $50 each game. We won a total of $190 for this group of game. In addition to using the tracking form for each game, you should also keep a record of all of your wins and losses. A form is provided for you in the Automatic Craps manual.
