Not to get too deep on this subject, but one has to wonder at what point does this approach become evident in the eyes of the pit critter doing the rating. When you've got players at different ends of the table betting $10, $15, or even $25 on opposite sides of the line it may not seem that they are working together...especially if that is the general bet level of the table.I've thought about this approach to a card and where i heard of it being done. I definitely remember some guys doing it to get the new 7star cards when Harrahs was changing their ratings.... They played at a pretty high level black or better...for 3 hrs and you got the card
But when you've got a player throwing down black(s) on the Pass, and black(s) on the Don't, there's a decent chance that the critter sees through it. If the table is wagering at this high level, maybe not...and it could be a solid way to generate heightened standing in the TR system.
Trying to remember something I read a while back, a common estimate of the number of rolls per hour on a full craps table is in the ballpark of 125. Also noting that about 30% of the rolls are come-out rolls (those are the only ones affecting the team's bankroll, unless odds are taken), that comes out to ~38 come-out rolls/hour.
Probability says 1/36 will be losers (12s) for the Pass Line player, so the rough long run math says that the team would come out down 1 wager per hour. If two players are getting black-level comps and offers for an expected one-bet/hour loss, would that be worth it? A comp pro would have to deliver the answer...Shadroch?
