If you consider using this scheme you want to have a vast pocket book and incredible discipline to march away when you realize a small win. For the benefit of this article, an example buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always judged the "successful way to compete" and the horn bet itself carries a house edge of over 12 %.
All you are betting is five dollars on the pass line and ONE number from the horn. It doesn’t matter whether it is a "craps" or "yo" as long as you bet it constantly. The Yo is more common with gamblers using this approach for clear reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table however put only five dollars on the passline and $1 on one of the two, three, eleven, or 12. If it wins, great, if it loses press to $2. If it does not win again, press to $4 and then to eight dollars, then to $16 and following that add a $1.00 each subsequent bet. Each instance you lose, bet the previous value plus a further dollar.
Employing this system, if for example after fifteen rolls, the number you selected (11) has not been thrown, you really should march away. However, this is what could happen.
On the 10th roll, you have a total of one hundred and twenty six dollars in the game and the YO finally hits, you gain $315 with a take of $189. Now is a perfect time to march away as it is more than what you entered the table with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a complete wager of $391 and because your current wager is at $31, you gain $465 with your take being $74.
As you can see, using this approach with only a one dollar "press," your profit margin becomes smaller the longer you bet on without winning. That is why you should walk away once you have won or you have to wager a "full press" once again and then carry on with the $1.00 mark up with each toss.
Crunch the data at home before you try this so you are very adept at when this system becomes a non-winning adventure instead of a winning one.
