If you choose to use this scheme you need to have a very large pocket book and incredible discipline to walk away when you earn a small success. For the purposes of this essay, a sample buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always considered the "winning way to wager" and the horn bet itself carries a house advantage of over 12 %.
All you are gambling is 5 dollars on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It doesn’t matter if it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you bet it routinely. The Yo is more common with players using this approach for clear reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you join the table but put only $5.00 on the passline and $1 on one of the two, three, eleven, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to $2. If it does not win again, press to $4 and continue on to eight dollars, then to $16 and after that add a $1.00 each time. Each time you don’t win, bet the previous value plus another dollar.
Using this approach, if for example after fifteen rolls, the number you chose (11) hasn’t been tosses, you likely should walk away. However, this is what possibly could happen.
On the 10th toss, you have a total of $126 in the game and the YO finally hits, you gain $315 with a profit of $189. Now is an excellent time to go away as it is higher than what you joined the game with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a complete investment of $391 and because your current action is at $31, you gain $465 with your take being $74.
As you can see, using this system with only a $1.00 "press," your gain becomes tinier the more you bet on without hitting. This is why you should step away after a win or you have to wager a "full press" again and then carry on with the $1.00 increase with each roll.
Crunch some numbers at home before you attempt this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a losing affair rather than a profitable one.
