If you consider using this scheme you need to have a vast pocket book and remarkable fortitude to step away when you realize a tiny success. For the purposes of this article, a sample buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always judged the "successful way to play" and the horn bet itself carries a house edge well over 12 %.
All you are wagering is five dollars on the pass line and ONE number from the horn. It doesn’t matter if it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you bet it constantly. The Yo is more popular with people using this approach for obvious reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you sit down at the table however only put five dollars on the passline and $1 on one of the two, three, 11, or twelve. If it wins, great, if it loses press to $2. If it loses again, press to $4 and then to eight dollars, then to $16 and following that add a $1.00 every time. Each time you don’t win, bet the last bet plus an additional dollar.
Employing this approach, if for instance after fifteen tosses, the number you selected (11) has not been tosses, you surely should step away. However, this is what possibly could happen.
On the 10th roll, you have a total of $126 in the game and the YO finally hits, you earn three hundred and fifteen dollars with a profit of $189. Now is a good time to walk away as it’s higher than what you entered the table with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth roll, you will have a total wager of $391 and because your current wager is at $31, you amass $465 with your profit being $74.
As you can see, employing this approach with just a one dollar "press," your gain becomes tinier the longer you play on without hitting. That is why you should walk away once you have won or you should wager a "full press" once again and then carry on with the $1.00 increase with each toss.
Carefully go over the numbers before you try this so you are very adept at when this scheme becomes a losing adventure rather than a winning one.
