Any time I'm at a casino and looking to spend money, it means I'm drunk so a (seemingly, at least) complex game like Craps just isn't possible. I prefer roulette which requires zero analytical thought and is mostly just a guessing game.

The strategy my friend taught me was to effectively hedge your bets by putting the minimum amount on red or black (choose one color at the beginning and stick with it), then putting the minimum on 2 of the 3 "2 to 1" spaces at the bottom of the board. I never really even noticed those 2 to 1 spaces but essentially what you're doing is all but ensuring that you don't lose every dollar on the table on any given hand. It's still *possible* it's just way less likely.

So with that strategy I stayed alive longer than I would have employing my typical strategy of no strategy at all. Haha. And it paid off.
