My evaluation on this has always been that a player just has this constant choice, either you have not much in action, and less risk, or more in action, and more risk. Even though I can see I missed out, I usually figure there's no point in trying to come in late. So what this would mean is a shooter with a point-to-be-made can unexpectedly start rolling a bunch of numbers before resolving his point, the big opportunity that slips away if I am sitting there with only the line bet. If I got a hunch* that a player was going to do well, I would only then start making Come bets. I have been a player recently that makes a line bet and then waits to see how the shooter impresses me. To always have at least one Come bet occurred to me on my last go 'round a couple of days ago. But I also see plenty of people who never make Come bets. Many of you will say you've always made sure you have a Come bet, in fact I can name some names here who max out on Come bets always. If you press in some other way, you probably won't be convinced. I've convinced myself I should always make a Come bet - even if it is just the line bet and one Come bet. I suppose this thread will irritate some, on the other hand we need our Craps threads!
