well - wouldn't the Fire Bet protect the Don't Player in this scenario? If i placed 4 or 5 flats with full odds on the Don't side - and they got picked off one by one as the roller makes point after point - wouldn't i win the Fire Bet as a hedge?

Craps Fire Bet Odds. This wager is a rather simple one, at least for understanding by the players. Achieving success while gambling on it might not be an easy task, but it is considered a rewarding one. Knowing the odds coming with it is important for the players resorting to this wager.
It seems like whenever i play the Don't side - placing multiple Don't Pass / Don't Come bets - the only way i can get hurt is if the roller goes on a tear and hits point after point.

The 'fire bet' is supposed to be the worst bet in craps. Better to skip it than hedge against it.
If you want to 'protect yourself' in craps the only way is full free odds on pass or don't pass. It doesn't matter, once the point is made free odds play the same. If odds are high enough, say 100xs, you can drop the house edge to virtually nothing. There is no better way to reduce house edge in craps or any other game for that matter.
It isn't fun, but being a grinder rarely is as fun as winning a 30-1 hopping bet.

Thou shall not hedge your wagers. So sayeth The Wizard (and so say we all).
The problem withthe fire bet is that the shooter has to hit several different points. If someone shoots 4-4-5-4-6-4-5-4-4-7, the Fire Bet(TM) yields exactly nothing. In such a roll you'd lose most of your don't pass/don't come bets and the fire bet as well.
I expect I may lay a few bucks on the fire bet next time I go to Vegas, just for the thrill of it and, frankly, to get it off my system. Then I expect I'll play the lowest possible house edge craps game, meaning don't pass/don't come with odds.
I don't know of any simulators with a fire bet option, sorry.
Let's say the shooter shoots 6, 8, 8, 6. He's made his point. He's also made the 8 for anyone that put a come bet out on that second roll.
The FireBet doesn't care about that come bet.
All the FireBet concerns itself with, is a shooter successfully completing at least four different front line pass bets.
As such, it doesn't hedge against anything specific.
As a don't bettor, you can get killed by a shooter on a hot streak, and still have that shooter miss the FireBet.

I like to talk about the FireBet this way: It's a side bet. And I applaud the guy who figured out how to put a jackpot on a craps table.
You can only place that bet before a new shooters first roll.
But even if you forget to get that bet in, if the shooter hits it, you may feel stupid or cheated, but if you've had your bets spread out at all (right betting), you're making big money anyway.
I have made 5 different points while shooting from the don'ts. If I had put $5 on the fire bet I would have made a profit despite losing 5 times on the don't pass line. It begs the question, after how many different points would you switch to the pass line and go for the six points?
I've a little poker game on my cellphone, which I play when I'm stuck waiting somewhere. Often I'll fold before the flop when I hold, say, a 5 and 10 off suit. Then sometimes the flop will be 5,5,10. I did realize I notice such events more often than when the flop is something completely unhelpful for the cards I was dealt.
So, sure, sometimes you'll make the smart move and lose, while the dumb move wins. It happens. That's chance. But it doesn't happen often enough to be worth it.
However, the fire bet may be harmless enough. If you're laying down $100+ per shooter on craps, making the pass/come or don's pass/don't come bets with odds, then throwing away $5 for a side bet won't hurt you too badly.
My take is that it's ok to make sucker bets, so long as you are aware of the risk you're taking and what your chances are.

. . . about an hour later, I was still rolling and had hit every point, most of them more than once. My friend thought I was some kind of dice god. Unfortunately, the fire bet at that casino paid only 500 to 1, which is horrendous.
But, I just can't get into craps, even after that experience. I think it's the superstition that permeates the game. Very anoying. Now I prefer to play the wrong way and quietly lay the odds. I have a goal of some day convincing every player at a full craps table to bet the don't pass line. I call it my 'upside down craps table' goal.
The very first time I was introduced to craps, a guy told me to put a buck on the fire bet as I was handed the dice, so i did.

Here is a question. I've never made the fire bet, but can it be taken down if you make 2 or three in a row at the payout they would have for 2 or 3 in a row or must it be pressed until the end?
