Craps Hard 6
Thread Rating:
Hard ways: There are four hard-way numbers - 4, 6, 8, and 10. The number is rolled the hard way when both dice come up on the same number - that is, a hard 6 is two 3s. On a hard-way wager, the number chosen must come up hard before a 7 or before the number shows up any other combination. On a win, the six is often called '666 winner 6' followed by 'came hard' or 'came easy'. Seven rolled as 6–1 is sometimes called 'six ace' or 'up pops the Devil'. Older dealers and players may use the term 'Big Red' because craps tables once prominently featured a large red '7' in the center of the layout for the one-roll seven bet.

South Point has not been a great place for craps. Lost another 300 there on Day 4 and 100 on Day 5. Day 5 also saw action on 3 Card and Mississippi Stud to no avail. Binions was 5 dollars from open (9am) until 6 (usually goes up at 6). At 7 the girls in their outfits come out. 4Q has been opening around 11 or 12 at 5 dollars. Obviously, a 1+1 and 6+6 roll exist, but these have other names: Snake Eyes for the 1+1 and Boxcars for the 6+6. Since snake-eyes and boxcars are two of the three craps rolls, bets on the number combination are treated differently. The Hard 6 and Hard 8 bets pay 9 to 1 in the United States and have a house edge of 9.09%.
I bet $65 on the don't's and I press it up $10 after each victory. I won like 4 in a row so I had a $105 don't bet and the point was 6. I threw down a $15 hard 6 as insurance. The hard 6 hits and I collect $135 but loose my $105 don't bet. Anyways my hard 6 is still up and I have $105 on the don't's (I considered that a push so my bet stayed the same). Anyways the next point was I think 5. I almost never win the hard 6 the second time but they rolled back to back hard 6's paying me $135 each time. After the 3rd hard 6 I pressed it to $25 thinking no way will it hit but it hit again paying me $225, I then pressed it up to $50 and it hit again paying me $450! I pressed it another $25 but they 7'd out. I colorered up and left. Not bad!
Made a killing on the don't's tonight but the funny thing was it was a single hard 6 bet that really made me money.

Great story. Some of the most entertaining action to watch is the hardway parlay strategy players. I used to see more of this a few months ago before the players that played that way started getting killed.
I've seen hardway parlays lead up to $10,000 in winnings on a $5 table with $1,000 limits. When a table that normally doesn't have anyone leaving with more than $1,000 has someone taking $10,000, it's pretty exciting for everyone at the table.

Thank you for sharing!If I may be so bold to ask...
How many lifetime killings have you made on the don't's
(I stills says the don't's is a major sucker bet compared to Lay bets)
and how many have killed you?
I really want to hear more about your tonights where you get slaughtered
Thank you again

man and I was excited a few weeks back when I put $1 on hard 6 and parlayed the winnings. I won again and upped my bet to $20 and hit again and the point was 6. I upped it to $30 and hard 6 rolled on the come out roll. I did a fist pump and the dealer calmly explained it was the come out roll. dohhh. Next roll of course was a 7.

Craps Hard 6 Payout
That happened to me once a long time ago. I wasn't really playing but when this shooter hit 3 consecutive hard 6's, I decided to go on for $1. The hard 6 rolls a few minutes later and I said 'parlay it'. The shooter goes maybe 5 minutes without hitting a 6 and makes 2 points. On the come out roll they hit the hard 6, but I turn my bets off on the come out roll. I was pissed! Then of course they 7 out and my hard 6 never hit.I also was shooting from the dont's once where I rolled 4 hard 6's in a row! After the 4th one half the table got on the hard 6 and of course on the next roll it comes easy! A few people come back up on the hard 6 and it comes easy again!
Craps Hard 6 Odds
Another incredible thing I saw was a year ago somebody hands the dealer a quarter and says 'I will buy the 10 for a quarter' shooter immediately throws a hard 10 and this guy jokingly says 'I said hard 10!' Next throw hard 10 again which he repeats jokingly 'I said hard 10'. Shooter goes on to roll a total of 5 hard tens, 3 of them were in a row and each time the player (who didn't even press his bet) said with a smile 'I said hard 10'. It was kind of funnyCraps Hard 6
