How Press Tony plays

On the come-out, Tony bets the Pass Line.

Once a point is set, he places the 6 and 8. Every time one of them hits, he takes the winnings and adds a unit to that bet, “pressing” it, up to five times his starting bet.

Why people like it

Pressing rides a hot hand. If the shooter keeps rolling 6s and 8s, Tony’s bets keep growing, and a long hand can turn into his best day of the week. Place 6 and 8 cost 1.52%, the cheapest Place bets there are.

The catch

Every press puts more money on the felt for the 7 to take. Tony gives back more than a player who just collects, and his week swings harder than anyone’s with the shooter.

A sample hand

One shooter's hand at a $10 table with 3-4-5 odds. Every regular plays the same dice, so you can compare them. These are the bets Press Tony really makes: the table's own bot and payout rules played it. Play money.
