If you consider using this scheme you want to have a very large pocket book and incredible fortitude to leave when you acquire a tiny win. For the benefit of this story, a figurative buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always considered the "winning way to wager" and the horn bet itself has a house advantage well over 12 %.
All you are wagering is $5 on the pass line and ONE 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 common with gamblers using this system for apparent reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you join the table however put only $5.00 on the passline and $1 on either the 2, 3, 11, or 12. If it wins, awesome, if it does not win press to two dollars. If it loses again, press to four dollars and continue on to eight dollars, then to sixteen dollars and after that add a one dollar every subsequent wager. Every time you lose, bet the previous wager plus an additional dollar.
Using this approach, if for example after fifteen rolls, the number you chose (11) hasn’t been thrown, you likely should walk 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 come away with $315 with a take of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a good time to walk away as it is a lot more than what you joined the table with.
If the YO does not hit until the 20th toss, you will have a total wager of $391 and seeing as current action is at $31, you gain $465 with your take being $74.
As you can see, adopting this approach with only a one dollar "press," your take becomes tinier the more you bet on without succeeding. This is why you should march away after a win or you must bet a "full press" once more and then continue on with the $1.00 increase with each toss.
Carefully go over the numbers before you attempt this so you are very accomplished at when this system becomes a non-winning affair rather than a profitable one.
