If you consider using this scheme you must have a sizable pocket book and amazing discipline to go away when you accrue a tiny win. For the benefit of this story, an example buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are certainly not judged the "successful way to compete" and the horn bet itself has a casino edge of over 12 %.
All you are betting is $5 on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It does not matter if it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you bet it always. The Yo is more established with gamblers using this scheme for obvious reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you sit down at the table but put only $5.00 on the passline and $1 on one of the 2, 3, 11, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to $2. If it loses again, press to $4 and then to $8, then to sixteen dollars and after that add a $1.00 every subsequent bet. Every time you lose, bet the previous value plus a further dollar.
Adopting this scheme, if for instance after 15 rolls, the number you selected (11) hasn’t been thrown, you without doubt should walk away. However, this is what possibly could happen.
On the 10th toss, you have a sum total of $126 on the table and the YO finally hits, you win $315 with a gain of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a great time to walk away as it’s a lot more than what you entered the game with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the 20th roll, you will have a total investment of $391 and because your current wager is at $31, you win $465 with your gain of $74.
As you can see, using this scheme with just a one dollar "press," your gain becomes tinier the longer you gamble on without succeeding. This is why you have to go away after a win or you have to bet a "full press" again and then carry on with the one dollar boost with each hand.
Carefully go over the numbers before you attempt this so you are very accomplished at when this scheme becomes a losing affair instead of a winning one.
