To beat the dice you have to know how to bet the dice. Whether you call it a 'system,' a 'strategy,' or just a way to play - this is the place to discuss it. On a hit and run, saw one fellow just watch the table for a few minutes, then.

No one has ever left a loser once they have left while ahead. For anyone to say that you should stay on the table and never take your money down is just plain loser talk. Hit n Run. Casinos hate us when we do that. They want people to put in time because they know they will win in the long run.
If there is a way to win in craps, I have mastered it. Don't play the pass line. You are stuck with that number and can't leave. The seven is the most probable number and will mostly likely to do so before any other number is rolled twice. That is where they get you with the bs true odds allure. So big deal if you get paid 6 to 5 instead of 7 to 6, or 3 to 3 instead of 7 to 5, or 2 to 1 instead of 9 to 5. All that doesn't matter if the probability of that occurring is slim.
I have great success playing the board. 4,5,6,8,9,10. Hit two or three numbers and take it all down. Walk away. Dont have to worry about the point being made, and forget about that long roll that everyone thinks is coming.... because its probably not! Everyone HOPES for that lottery roll. That is why they are losers. Leave the table a winner! Just like playing the stock market. If you make a decent return on a stock purchase, you sell it and forget it. Who cares if it continues to run up as long as you made your profit. Management and discipline is what separates winners from losers.
Good Luck!

I'm surprised I'm the first one to burst your bubble Watchmewin, but you haven't mastered it. Believe me, just because betting place numbers gives you the freedom to leave when you want to doesn't mean it gives you an edge. Minimum pass line with max odds is always going to be a better bet.
Your hit and run strategy is no more successful than staying for the whole roll. There is no difference between 10 short sessions and one long session if the amount of money in play is equal.
Also, it is not like the stock market. I'm no expert, but the stock market is driven by public opinion and demand, along with company performance. The dice wil not be affected whether most people want a 4 or 7, or if they have been hot or cold recently.

Does this mean that lady did not steal my jackpot on the slots ?

Hehe, no, actually she did steal that. The newbie on third base soaked up all your dealer's bust cards too.

I respectfully disagree Clarkacal. But that is what debates are all about. I know the truth about what works for me. And if it works for me, there has to be truth to it. Ive been playing craps for 20 years. I have played every week within that timeframe... thats alot of rolls that I have experienced. In my earlier years, I too would play the pass, put odds, and hope for shooters to make points and go on long rolls... I was a sucker! 10 years ago, I decided to balls up and put real money across the board and just be happy with a couple numbers at a time. I believe in consistantly hitting lots and lots of singles as opposed to swinging for the fence and striking out 90 pcnt of the time.
The edge is in your management, discipline, understanding the probabilities, and walking away at will. What good would it do anyone to have lets say even 3 to 1 odds behind the pass line when the probability of the point to hit is 1 in 6? Figure that one out. I wish you well and hope you win backing up your pass bet. And when the point is a 5, then a 6 and a 9 hit, Ill be at the cash register before the outcome of that roll, which will most likely be a 7. And if the 5 hits, great! I will have won 7 to 5 on my bet instead of 3 to 2. Big Deal!
Additionally, my analogy regarding walking away and not looking back has to do with the mindset of discipline and not getting greedy.. not the acutally events of how dice are rolled or stocks are driven by market.

That darn 7 cleans out pass line bets as well as place bets. You can't hit and run when you don't get ahead to begin with, which is quite often the case in craps. Your strategy might prevent big losses (and big wins for that matter) but you still lose money over the long run, just like those 'fools' playing the pass w/odds. The only advantage I can see in what you are saying is the fact that if you leave the table, you play less money, therefore lose less money.

I don't want to get into a long discussion about why passline w odds is better than place bets. I'm not sure I could convince you. Ask yourself this though. Why do casinos happily comp players that cover the board w place bets but turn their noses up in disgust at the player that bets full odds?
You made the analogy of walking away from a craps table to buying low and selling high in the stock market. I agree that mindset and discipline are important in gambling. However, what I am saying is you are just as likely to keep winning as losing because the dice are random every roll. In stocks prices go up because there is a demand for them. When the price gets too high there will be less demand and it should plateau or decline. The dice do not change based on how much your bets are being pressed or what portion of the table wants them to hit the point. Therefore you did not make or lose any extra money by quitting, you just hit pause in your long term gambling.

What good would it do anyone to have lets say even 3 to 1 odds behind the pass line when the probability of the point to hit is 1 in 6?

At what point does that situation occur?

I'm sure everyone here, including WatchMeWin, would agree with you that passline w odds is better than place bets....IN TERMS of payout odds and HA%. Also, your example for comp valuations makes sense - if both types of players leave their numbers working 100% of the time. But for players who take down their places bets routinely, such comparisons have little value. I can't speak for WMW personally, but those who pull their bets routinely - don't play craps for comps. I know I don't.
One of the very few advantages a player has over the house is the ability to control when, where, & how much to bet. If you play the passline, you're basically giving away this advantage back to the casino - as you cannot turn off your passline bet. Now...how much value would you place on the ability to turn your bets on or off?? Is it worth the extra odds you give up for place betting as opposed to PL w full odds?? Some would argue there is little or no material value for giving up your ability to turn on/off your bets. But what WMW is saying is this ability is...well...priceless.
And I couldn't agree more.....

Best Gambling Strategy

Each week, the Talking Poker series will highlight a particular poker term. We’ll give you a clear, to-the-point definition of the term and an example of the strategic concept to which it refers, so that you can start using the term and implementing the related strategy into your game. This week we turn our attention to what it means to “hit and run” in poker.

Definition

The act of joining a poker game, winning big in a short period of time, and leaving the table soon after with one’s winnings.

Example

Player A buys into a $1/$2 no-limit hold’em game for $200 and doubles up within the first few hands after sitting down. Player A then tells the dealer not to deal him in the next hand, stacks his chips, and cashes out. Player A has “hit and run.”

Strategic Considerations

Although perfectly within the rules, committing a “hit and run” is often considered poor etiquette. Pros also say that for longevity and success in cash games, in general it is best to play longer when you’re winning and shorter when you’re losing. One reason is that it’s common for players to make better decisions when winning, leading to bigger profits. Another is that a player who is winning can have a skill edge over his or her opponents and thus stands to win more by staying.

Watch and Learn

Opinions are wide-ranging when it comes to players who “hit and run.” Last spring I asked followers of PokerNews Twitter account for some input on the subject, and also spoke with several pros at the European Poker Tour Vienna stop, including Jeff Rossiter, Bertrand 'Elky' Grospellier, and Theo Jørgensen, to learn what they thought about players who “hit and run.” Find out what they had to say:
