  2. Thank you for your video. I am going to Vegas at the end of January. Never played the game. I have watched about 100 videos and have numerous strategies leaking out my ears. I have decided I'm just going to go for it. Going to play 160 across the top buying the 4 & 10 and playing 25 in the field. I'm going to bank all my top numbers and use my field wins to press with. If I bomb out I will put my hands in my pocket and drop my chin to my chest and walk away. I want to tip the dealer either way what would be an appropriate amount. Especially since I might lose right away

  3. Sorry I should have mentioned this first I hope you get better my son lives in Las Vegas and he's already had covid twice

  4. Thank you for the video – super helpful and I appreciate the insight as well as you running out the play! When I play the IC expanding to Across I press the 5/6/8 if they hit as opposed to expanding to other numbers. If a 4/9/10 hit I use the win to place that number. If 2/12 hit I use the wins plus the field bet to place the 4/9/10. If a 3/11 hit I bank it until the Field hits again, then use those wins plus the field bet to place the 4/9/10. So I remove the field bet after 2 field hits (or 1 hit of the 2 or 12). Probability says that in the first 4 rolls you will hit the field twice and the 5/6/8 twice…on average if you avoid a 7.

    This I why I like this system, but correct me where I am wrong or missing something. The IC starts with 9 units of place bets (3 each on the 5/6/8) and after 4 average rolls will have the 4, 9, & 10 covered with 2 units each, plus 2 units added to the 5/6/8 (I will press 1 unit when 5/6/8 hit) so that's 17 total units in place bets. The Across method starts with 12 units in place bets and after the same 4 rolls (two field + two 5/6/8) will have 14-16 units in place bets if you press 1 unit. If the 2 field hits were 4/9/10 then the across will have 16 units after 4 rolls. The Across will also be 1 beat ahead of the IC when the 4/9/10 hit in the first 4 rolls. Check my math and let me know what I missed. If I'm not missing something the IC to Across will, on average, get you to a spot, after 4 rolls, that is 1-3 units worth of place bets higher than the Across.
