Craps Hedging Strategy
The Basic Betting Method is only one part of the complete Automatic Craps Strategy. If you want to use the complete strategy you will find it in the Automatic Craps manual. However, you can develop substantial winnings using just the Basic Betting Method. After summarizing this playing strategy we present the 'cheat sheets' set up for each. Conventional wisdom states that hedge bets cause you to lose more money. If you ordinarily bet $6 on the 6 and 8, you have $12 at the mercy of a 1.52 percent house edge. Multiplying the two you are destined to lose about 18 cents on the $12. The Parity Hedge System derives in part from the Doey-Don't System immortalized in Frank Scoblete's classic book: Beat the Craps Out of the Casinos and Play Craps and Win, p. 39 (Bonus Books, 1991). You have to understand what makes that strategy successful before you can delve into the intricacies of the Parity Hedge System.
I have just returned from Vegas where I played and won $740 in about 1 1/2 hours play starting with $100. I am trying to determine if my hedging strategy was valid or just lucky? I used come bets with odds to hedge my bets on the table. I'd cover my table stakes with come bets and take odds on the come bet points. Conservative Craps Hedge Strategy For all those that want to advise me how to play the game of Craps thanks. But once again, this strategy is an alternative to playing craps and works best on a cold table or when you are first establishing yourself on the table.
my question, I am a don't better and i realize that if i can get past the come out roll i now have the advantage over the casino, but there is the problem getting past that first roll. Here is what i want to try lets say i make a $25 dont pass bet, and i lay the 4 for $51 just in case a 7 rolls and ill get a hard 4 for $8 to cover part of the 4 just in case it comes 2-2 then i can hop the 3-1 for 4. once a point is established i can remove everything except that $4 hop bet that i lost so basically it cost me like $4 for insurance to get past that first roll, does this sound like it can work?
Why don't you just put $5 on the 'Big Red' during the Come Out?
Then you have only lost $5 and are past the Come out....And if the 7 rolls, you are out $5.
Then you have only made two bets. Not 4 or 5.

YO! YOLEVEN, Take the don'ts!
If you find yourself making dollar bets on any seven .. realize that's 16.67 of $1 per roll on that bet in the long run. If you really think there's going to be a seven on the comeout .. BET THE PASS LINE.
In order to know what bets are the best bets to make without looking at the house advantage .. you need to know what is more likely to come up. So unless you want to go down the path of believing in trends or dice influence .. you're stuck on the don't pass with lay odds, which is the best house advantage you can get.

No.
So you want to put some chips on the PassLine: Do it ... don't hedge.
