Craps World Records
Thread Rating:
'HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT' - Randy Season 11, Episode 9 - 'More Crap' All content and rights for South Park are exclusively owned by South Park Studios and Comedy. In 2009, a player at the casino broke records at the craps tables, rolling a pair of dice 154 times continuously without throwing a seven.
What are the world records for:
1. Consecutive successful passes?
2. Consecutive successful point conversions?
3. Consecutive Come Out natural winners (7 & 11)?
4. Consecutive Come Out craps?
5. Consecutive rolls w/o hitting a 6? (not point conversion, just the number)
6. Consecutive rolls w/o hitting an 8? (not point conversion, just the number)
Are such records kept??

Demauro's 154-roll lucky streak, which lasted four hours and 18 minutes, broke the world records for the longest craps roll and the most successive dice rolls without 'sevening out.' Demauro declined to reveal how much money she won, but gambling experts estimate that if she made good bets, her winnings were probably in the hundreds of. Craps world records (24 January 2010) Atlantic City makes the right choices? (21 January 2010) Craps baseball (17 January 2010) More or less? (14 January 2010) Craps classes in Massachusetts? (10 January 2010) Stupid move or smart move? (7 January 2010) Why have you stopped recommending the Doey-Don't system? (3 January 2010).
The Borgata says they only lost $185K on the table during the roll. It was full of small betters.

It is hard to conceive that that might be the current world record after all this time. It would seem that with all the current technology and improvements in communications, such records or numbers would be available even with all the privacy concerns. Or perhaps not.

As far as I know there's no way to measure and account for every individual bet at a craps table. Sure the dealers keep track of individual bets, but not a list of all individual bets over time. Once they collect a bet or pay it off, that's it.
You could measure and track all the action in two different ways: 1) with a Rapid Craps table or a similar semi-electronic deal; 2) by using RFID enabled chips and recording the result of each roll in the same system tracking the chips. With that info, assuming you only track pass line bets, you could have accurate results for any number of rolls you wanted, or any time period you chose. Tracking all other bets would require more ifnormation input, such as which player bet which hardway, hop, etc.

Score one (1!) for RapidCraps...finally.
Oh well just a thought.
Thanks all for jumping in.

i think it was four queens downtown las vegas where they had a clicker on the table that the boxman would hit after each roll a 7 wasnt rolled.
I know at the Freemont Casino downtown they have an electronic display that the box keeps rolls of each shooters hand. Someone should keep track of records and have bonus payouts when someone breaks a record!Craps World Records Record
The problem is, the boxman frequently forgot to click, then would remember and estimate the number of rolls he missed. It was a joke.
Yeah, that roll at Borgata had to go to the video to get the accurate count.

Friday, May. 29, 2009 Holy Craps! How a Gambling Grandma Broke the Record By Claire Suddath
It sounds like a homework problem out of a high school math book: What is the probability of rolling a pair of dice 154 times continuously at a craps table, without throwing a seven?
The answer is roughly 1 in 1.56 trillion, and on May 23, Patricia Demauro, a New Jersey grandmother, beat those odds at Atlantic City's Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa. Demauro's 154-roll lucky streak, which lasted four hours and 18 minutes, broke the world records for the longest craps roll and the most successive dice rolls without 'sevening out.' According to Stanford University statistics professor Thomas Cover, the chances of that happening are smaller than getting struck by lightning (one in a million), being hit by an errant ball at a baseball game (one in 1.5 million) or winning the lottery (one in 100 million, depending on the game).

Seems those are better odd than us ever seeing zer0’s BC
How much did she win? Did Time even bother to find out? Does she own the casino now?
Craps World Record
Maybe she brought her own dice.
Ditto.
Maybe these were affirmative action dice
I can guarantee you the casino changed dice many, many times
I just found my long lost Grandma!
Even if she didn’t report it to the press, you know the casino did (for the publicity). Journalistic negligence, in my opinion.
Smart woman.
Craziest thing I ever saw in craps was a guy shooting alone who rolled three '12s' in a row. No horn bets or hardways out on the table.
I looked at the stickman, he looked at the banker, banker looked at me, nobody looked at the shooter, and all of us around the table just shook our heads.
You won't likely be seeing something like that again soon.
“Demauro declined to reveal how much money she won, but gambling experts estimate that if she made good bets, her winnings were probably in the hundreds of thousands; expert bets would have put them in the millions.”
You actually read the article! What a concept. :)
I skimmed it, and was wondering what the number was. The casino should be broadcasting it from the rooftops.
LOL!
I had the same question. :)
I asked if Time bothered to try and find out the number.
“Demauro’s 154-roll lucky streak, which lasted four hours and 18 minutes, broke the world records for the longest craps roll and the most successive dice rolls without “sevening out.” According to Stanford University statistics professor Thomas Cover, the chances of that happening are smaller than getting struck by lightning (one in a million), being hit by an errant ball at a baseball game (one in 1.5 million) or winning the lottery (one in 100 million, depending on the game). (Read “When Gambling Becomes Obsessive.”)”
Reading the last sentence it sounds like she’s being sent to the cornfield.
This is not the right question, as anyone who knows the rules of craps will agree. The probability of rolling the dice at least 154 times before sevening out is about 1 in 5.59 billion. It's still a long shot, but that trillion figure is bogus.
I don’t blame her for declining to state her winnings.
She would have hundreds of long lost relatives who need financing for a “can’t miss” business deal.
Not sure how the pros would handle the betting, but I would siphon off 20% of winnings after each throw. You would have quite a pile when you eventually crapped out.
Simply incredible. Shooting an hour without sevening out is a milestone few ever achieve, but rolling to hit your point for over 4 hours is simply amazing. The area around the table must have been packed.
