If you consider using this scheme you really want to have a very large amount of money and incredible fortitude to march away when you accrue a small success. For the purposes of this article, an example buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are certainly not deemed the "successful way to compete" and the horn bet itself has a casino edge of over 12 %.
All you are playing is $5 on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It doesn’t matter if it is a "craps" or "yo" as long as you bet it always. The Yo is more established with players using this scheme for obvious reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table however only put five dollars on the passline and one dollar on either the 2, 3, 11, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to $2. If it loses again, press to four dollars and then to $8, 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.
Adopting this scheme, if for example after 15 rolls, the number you wagered on (11) has not been thrown, you likely should march away. Although, this is what could happen.
On the tenth toss, you have a sum of one hundred and twenty six dollars on the table and the YO at long last hits, you earn $315 with a take of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a good time to walk away as it’s a lot more than what you joined the game with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a total bet of $391 and seeing as current action is at $31, you win $465 with your gain of $74.
As you can see, using this scheme with just a $1.00 "press," your profit margin becomes tinier the more you wager on without attaining a win. This is why you should step away after a win or you have to wager a "full press" again and then continue on with the one dollar boost with each roll.
Crunch the data at home before you try this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a non-winning affair rather than a profitable one.
