The Standard to Judge all Craps Strategies By

This will by my new standard or measuring stick to compare all craps strategies against. The classic 3 point molly with max odds. It will not be a perfect comparison as strategies will use different bet amounts. But this is the mathematically lowest house edge way to play the game. (except the don't with lay odds is .01% lower)

As someone that deals with controls, references, and standards everyday, I appreciate that you now have a standard to measure other strategies to. I can't wait to see the comparisons!

Thanks for the videos Jeremy - you're my "go to" for all things craps. I think the standard comparison will be a good addition to your strategy videos.

Like the concept! Love the video production quality. Always top of the line!

I like having a "standard" fir comparison. The 3 point molly is a good choice due to most players play the paa line. Keep up the good topics. 👍

I’m saving this to send to my friends explaining Pass, Come & Odds

Another great vid! Great idea for a standard. I see a lot of PL/odds coupled with 6/8 place as well. In fact, I use my own standard to measure against when testing out mine and your strategies: My wife Amy. She's a fairly new craps player who does her own random strategies with PL/odds, placing, come bets, fields bets, pretty much an out of the box recreational player. I have yet to beat her, lol! Once I find the strategy that beats her consistently, that's gonna be the one

just walked away with $200 playing for 2 hours with this strategy - thank you!!!

[Twinsen]

Missed that 2 for the ATS good roll for you!

Good choice Molly. Solid strategy mathematically. Very useful benchmark for evaluating all others.

[dtleo]

Love the standard! The Molly makes me money!

Love that come out you rolled. What I do is an eight dollar horn along side the pass line if the seven rolls, just replace the horn. If your horn wins, parlay the whole bet ONCE. If it wins again, chase it away with $20 increases on the horn. And a $20 hop on the hardways. Just as you stated, 33 percent of time the game is won or lost on the come out. I can hit three or four hardways or horn bets in a row several times before I or another shooter has a fifteen or longer roll....

play the standard but have often gone past 3, which chews up the bankroll on a bad run. Thanks for the clear video.

Great video! First time seeing the 3 point molly strategy.

I did find it interesting that at a 3x-4x-5x table, the max odds wins you the same amount as it would if you placed the same bet (more on the 4 and 10 even if you place it: would typically buy those). In a $10 line bet with max odds, you would get $70 if you hit your numbers. Similarly for a place bet, you would get $72-$70-$70 off of a $40-$50-$60 place bets. The payout is more for a placed number as you move away from max odds with the same bet. However, you will win more with max odds at a 10x or higher table.

Hopefully I did my math right...

Molly may be OK as an easy to bet approach but it wouldn't be my choice on a choppy table - it will eat your lunch (and your bankroll). Why be subjected to taking random rolls for getting your next 2 bets through the COME? This has at least 3 major downsides; first you have to get it out of the COME to a random box number, second you can't pull those bets down at any time during a roll and third you have to have repeat numbers to win. For me, I've found using Place Bets directly on numbers I want has more major upsides over the Molly. First I can control when I want them ON or OFF both on the come out roll AND AFTER a point is established, second I select which numbers I want my money on (no random number from a roll), third I can pull all bets down after either a "number of rolls" or "number of hits" strategy - this is a HUGE advantage on a choppy table, you can decide pick how many numbers you want on each roll, you can vary how much you bet for each number AND you can pull them all down after 1, 2, 3 hits or ride them out for the entire roll. Sorry, but I can't buy into the "odds advantage" as being able to overcome the freedom to pick where and when my bets are handled. So as a standard, are you planning on running new strategies matched against the Molly as two separate bettors or are you going to show new strategies and indicate what the total ends up with using the same exact numbers rolled with the Molly? Either way should be interesting, although trying to figure out betting amounts to keep them equal might be awkward. Should be interesting ... roll on ...

This is in no way a critique of the video or channel but it’s fascinating to me to watch craps content creation go in cycles.

There really just isn’t that much unique information to talk about and so it seems like in 20 years we will still be watching new videos about strategies, house edge, etc.

[muhammadcurtis]

That’s a decent standard. I would use this at a table with 10x odds or better. Of course I’d have to come with a significant bankroll because the twists and turns will be intense if not insane.

[mrgoorn]

"The Standard" did not have the standard ColorUp strategy destroying rolls. Excellent.

[adambrown]

This is a great idea to create a standard. I assume you will play 2 shooters at a time to compare each system from now on? Boy this was a rough string of rolls. Never saw so many craps rolled before the point.

[golfer]

Good idea (especially with your past record in dooming strategies😂) might be some old posts to revisit by popular demand

[DiamondDice]

The irony of the lowest house edge strategy requiring the biggest bankroll- almost like the casino created the strategy themselves. Never have understood people thinking this is the best strategy- $66 inside vs. 3 come bets with full odds...one player has the four most likely numbers to roll, the other has three random numbers. Good job explaining it, though- come bets are not easy to explain!
