    is possible, but don't count on it.

    Is minimizing negative expectation the best way to play?

    Sam Grafstein states that players should pick a "sensible" method of play that "most appeals to you" and stick with it.

    Other writers say we should convert from Do to Don't or vice versa when table conditions dictate.

    One thing is certain, no matter how bad the bet, it can win.

    Personally, I like to play only the lowest HE bets, and at best, whether Do or Don't, only a couple at a time.

    Like I am sure everyone else, sometimes I lose, sometimes I win, sometimes (rarely) I win big, but I never lose big, because I never put myself in that position.

    You play smart, at least mostly. Just like me.

    Any bad bets that are fun for you to play?

    If you prepare for the worst, then you'll be prepared to walk out empty handed. If u prepare to have a good time, you will have a good time.

    My friend is Bad River reservation...he says the best way for him to support other tribes who have casinos is to walk up to the door, throw his money inside the door and then run away to his car and leave.

    Craps should be fun, but like any game, it is a losing battle. Even if the RTP is alledgedly 98%

    Bad bets are part of the fun. I have a signature bet that i do once a night, and the entire table laughs n cheers and every time I have lost that bet. It's fun to say, fun to play, and even gasp! Fun to lose. It's also an $8 bet.
