Bet A Lot and Gain Little in Craps
If you choose to use this scheme you must have a very big amount of cash and remarkable fortitude to march away when you generate a small win. For the benefit of this story, an example buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are certainly not considered the "winning way to compete" and the horn bet itself carries a house edge well over twelve percent.
All you are gambling is 5 dollars on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It does not matter whether it is a "craps" or "yo" as long as you wager it at all times. The Yo is more prominent with players using this system for apparent reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you sit down at the table but only put five dollars on the passline and one dollar on one of the two, 3, eleven, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to $2. If it does not win again, press to four dollars and then to eight dollars, then to $16 and following that add a one dollar each time. Each time you lose, bet the previous amount plus an additional dollar.
Employing this system, if for example after 15 tosses, the number you selected (11) hasn’t been tosses, you without doubt should step away. However, this is what possibly could develop.
On the 10th roll, you have a sum of $126 on the table and the YO finally hits, you earn $315 with a profit of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is an excellent time to walk away as it is higher than what you entered the game with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a complete investment of $391 and because your current wager is at $31, you earn $465 with your profit being $74.
As you can see, adopting this system with just a $1.00 "press," your gain becomes tinier the longer you play on without attaining a win. That is why you have to go away once you have won or you should wager a "full press" once again and then advance on with the $1.00 increase with each hand.
Crunch some numbers at home before you try this so you are very adept at when this scheme becomes a losing proposition instead of a profitable one.
