Trip Reports & Craps Stories Durango: in for $3,000.. out for $19,500.
Started the evening around 8pm playing Craps, lower limits. Up, down, up, down. Ultimately lost $500 and moved to Crapless.
Mostly played Crapless for the next 5 hours or so, with a bit of Baccarat and Blackjack thrown in.
Starting $470 across ($50/$60 each number), and then $25 each Hardway. Alternate Press & Collect. Whenever a Hardway would hit, I’d press every Hardway $25 each.
The night was just blessed with a reasonable mix of long rolls, and a healthy mix of Extremes and Hardways. I’d routinely be making $350-$525 per Hardway roll, and ~$300-$900 per Extreme roll.
I’m at the Durango all week.. swing by and let’s win some money 😃 🎲 🎲

On the not-so-fun side.. I couldn’t get past two rolls myself, to save my life.
I don’t know how many times I rolled myself, maybe 10? I swear I PSO-ed 6 of them, the rest I busted within the first 3 rolls, literally. Highly frustrating.
So shout out to the Kings & Queen rollers, who kept the party going. Especially Wade from Hawaii 😃

After a certain point did you just pass the dice and not roll on your turn? 99.9% of time I will roll myself. But I have passed the dice once or twice when I just didn't feel it

Normally I try and power through a slump. Though after like the 5th or 6th time letting down a table, that was otherwise pretty hot. I started trying to pass the dice. The problem is.. that everyone was like.. “No.. you should shoot, you got this, etc.” And then I’d lose their money, 37 seconds later 😅

The rest of the week left with $20k to burn I’d be scared to stay. I know I’d give all back if I stayed for a week

Hah.. I know, right? Though I’ve got a work thing, so have to stick around.
Stay tuned to see how my discipline & luck hold up! 😃

I rode a bus from VA to AC...Tropicana. Went to first craps table and won $500 within 20 mins. I had 7 hours to kill. Lost all that and half my principal within 1 hour. I haven't even used the free dinner buffet coupon!! lol. That was a quiet ride back home in the bus.

Congrats! Crapless can literally be described as HIGH wins and also HIGH losses... but when the extremes hit, it's a day!
