If you commit to using this scheme you must have a very big bankroll and remarkable fortitude to go away when you accrue a tiny success. For the purposes of this article, a figurative buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always considered the "successful way to play" and the horn bet itself carries a house advantage well over 12 %.
All you are gambling is $5 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 consistently. The Yo is more dominant with people using this scheme 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 either the two, three, eleven, or twelve. If it wins, fantastic, if it loses press to $2. If it loses again, press to four dollars and then to eight dollars, then to sixteen dollars and following that add a $1.00 each time. Every time you don’t win, bet the previous bet plus a further dollar.
Adopting this scheme, if for instance after 15 rolls, the number you selected (11) has not been tosses, you likely should march away. However, this is what might develop.
On the 10th roll, you have a total of one hundred and twenty six dollars on the table and the YO finally hits, you earn three hundred and fifteen dollars with a gain of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is an excellent time to step away as it’s more than what you entered the table with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the twentieth roll, you will have a complete investment of $391 and seeing as current action is at $31, you come away with $465 with your take of $74.
As you can see, using this system with only a one dollar "press," your take becomes tinier the longer you play on without attaining a win. That is why you should go away once you have won or you should bet a "full press" once more and then advance on with the $1.00 increase with each hand.
Crunch some numbers at home before you attempt this so you are very adept at when this scheme becomes a losing affair instead of a profitable one.
