I play craps, professionally, and I tip very well (see my website if you don't know the best ways to tip while playing craps) and typically get rated fairly well.
However, when I play craps I play to win (see also 'winning' by charlie sheen?) and that typically does not involve me gambling. I feel that being able to shoot well while playing craps requires consistency, which isn't possible with alcohol or fatigue. Anyway, sometimes when I want to sit back and drink for free, I look for ways to possibly make money, but definitely rack up comp points/dollars.
Recently I've been spending a lot of time on the electronic roulette games, trying some moderate strategies and highly hedged bets. Hell, one night I sat for 4 hours with $10 on black and $10 on red, hitting the button over and over until i noticed 3 of one color hit in a row, then i could double my bet on the other color.
I racked up a TON of points, and actually made a few dollars. Not to mention I sat drinking for free over the entire time frame.
Does anyone else employ any of these methods just for the sake of racking up comp points with limited risk? Not necessarily on the electronic roulette, but any other games?
NOTE:
1) I know that it is statistically impossible to beat the house on these games and am not suggesting any sort of system to beat the house
2) My "luck" was partially due to the fact that I was playing on a french/euro style roulette machine with only one zero.
