** Hedgehog Strategy **
- Start with passline bet (table minimum)
- When passline establishes a point → switch to don't come
- When don't come establishes on a number → switch to come
- When come establishes on a number → switch to don't come
- Continue alternating as bets establish on numbers
- Reset to passline on new shooter
Key Rules:
- Only switch sides when a bet establishes on a point/number
- Do NOT switch on wins/losses during comeout (7, 11, 2, 3, 12)
- All bets are table minimum (same size)
- Pattern: Passline → Don't Come → Come → Don't Come → Come...
Example with $10 minimum table:
New shooter:
- $10 passline
Roll 6 (point established):
- Passline moves to point 6
- Place $10 don't come
Roll 8:
- Don't come moves to 8
- Place $10 come
Roll 5:
- Come moves to 5
- Place $10 don't come
Continue pattern...
On 7 out: All bets cleared
New shooter: Start over with passline
Parameters
