Two quick 7-outs in a row. The players cuss,Lotto Annihilator moan, and complain how the craps gods never give them a break. You wonder if you want to get in on the action now, even though it's obviously a cold table, or go to one of the other tables and wait for an open spot. Your plane just landed and your Vegas vacation just started, so you want some immediate action. You don't want to go stand by one of the other tables and wait. You want to play now. So, do you stay at the cold table?
Suppose you're like most people and prefer playing the Pass Line. In the above scenario, you have three options: 1) Stay, beat your chest like King Kong, fight the cold table, and probably lose, 2) Leave and wait for an open spot at another table, or 3) Stay at this cold table and adapt your play. I never choose option 1. I usually choose option 3.
Indeed, no one on Earth can ever know how the dice will fall (assuming legal dice are used). But, again, trends do occur (i.e., hot streaks and cold streaks). They just do. Once you experience a few of them, you'll understand and be able to recognize them. So, how can you win when the distribution variance turns against the player? The answer is simple--you adapt.
