5-Count (Craps Strategy)

This strategy for Craps is a way to help improve your odds, albeit slightly. The strategy works off of the idea that there are people who can actually control the way they throw the dice in order to improve their odds. Some people do this consciously and some do it unconsciously. These people throw in such a way to decrease the chances of a seven coming. The strategy was created by a man by the name of "The Captain."

The first part of the strategy is the point numbers = "4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10"
All other numbers (2, 3, 7, 11 and 12) are non-point numbers

When a new person starts rolling, begin the strategy. 1-Count is achieved when the roller first rolls a point number. So if they roll four sevens off the bat, they are still at 0-Count, not 4-Count.

For 2-Count through 4-Count it is any number for the next three throws without paying attention to point or non-point numbers.

5-Count is achieved when a point-number comes. If a non-point number comes then the roller holds at 4-Count. When 5-Count is achieve, start betting. Usually with COME bets or PLACING 6 and 8.

Examples of rolls:
7 (0-Count), 7 (0-Count), 11 (0-Count), 4 (1-Count), 11 (2-Count), 6 (3-Count), 4 (4-Count), 7 (hold 4-Count), 11 (hold 4-Count), 9 (5-Count) [[Start Betting]]
