Wager A Lot and Win Little in Craps
If you choose to use this approach you need to have a very big amount of money and awesome fortitude to step away when you earn a tiny win. For the benefit of this article, a sample buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always looked at as the "winning way to wager" and the horn bet itself has a casino edge well over 12 %.
All you are playing is 5 dollars on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you wager it constantly. The Yo is more prominent with gamblers using this approach for obvious reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you join the table but put only five dollars on the passline and $1 on either the 2, three, 11, or 12. If it wins, excellent, if it loses press to two dollars. If it does not win again, press to four dollars and continue on to $8, then to sixteen dollars and following that add a one dollar every subsequent wager. Every instance you do not win, bet the previous value plus an additional dollar.
Using this scheme, if for example after 15 rolls, the number you bet on (11) hasn’t been thrown, you probably should step away. Although, this is what might develop.
On the tenth toss, you have a total of $126 in the game and the YO finally hits, you come away with three hundred and fifteen dollars with a profit of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a great time to walk away as it is a lot more than what you entered the table with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a total wager of $391 and because your current wager is at $31, you earn $465 with your gain of $74.
As you can see, using this scheme with just a $1.00 "press," your take becomes tinier the more you play on without attaining a win. This is why you should march away once you have won or you should bet a "full press" once more and then advance on with the one dollar increase with each roll.
Carefully go over the data before you try this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a non-winning proposition rather than a winning one.
