Craps CPR Betting Method

One member of the group had a limited bankroll and wanted to play but did not want to risk a lot of money on each shooter. She asked if there was a system that could hopefully keep her money alive long enough to enjoy an afternoon of craps. I told her there was no guarantees but suggested that she might try a little CPR on the 6 or 8. I then explained that CPR stood for Collect, Press and Regress.

Here is how it works with a place bet on the number six.
Place the number six for $6. When it hits the first time you Collect your $7 win. You now will have a $1 profit even if the shooter sevens out.

After the second hit you tell the dealer to Press your bet. He will add $6 to you place bet and give you a dollar back from the $7 you won. You now have a profit of $2.

On the third hit, you will tell the dealer to Regress you bet back to $6. The dealer will give you $20. This is $14 for your place bet win and the $6 that you took down when you regressed your bet. You now have a profit of $22 no matter what happens.

You can now repeat the process. Just remember to Collect, then Press and Regress.

This is a very simple system utilizing bets with a low house edge. Except for betting the pass line and come bets with odds, (including don't pass don't come) placing the six and eight has the lowest house edge of all the craps bets. It is a good system for a newcomer or someone who wants to enjoy the excitement of the game without risking very much money. The most you can lose on a shooter is a minimum “Place” bet.

This method can be used with more than one place bet but you should treat each number separately. You are looking for the repeating numbers. A little CPR just might save your bankroll on your next trip to the tables. While no system can change the house edge this might win you a little more money if you come across a hot shooter.

Until Next time remember:
Luck comes and goes.....Knowledge Stays Forever.
