If you commit to using this approach you want to have a very big amount of money and remarkable discipline to march away when you earn a tiny success. For the purposes of this story, an example buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always seen as the "winning way to play" and the horn bet itself carries a casino advantage of 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 if it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you play it always. The Yo is more common with players using this system for obvious reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table however only put $5.00 on the passline and $1 on either the two, 3, eleven, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it loses press to two dollars. If it does not win again, press to four dollars and then to $8, then to $16 and following that add a one dollar each time. Every time you don’t win, bet the previous amount plus a further dollar.
Adopting this approach, if for example after 15 tosses, the number you bet on (11) has not been thrown, you probably should march away. Although, this is what might 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 amass three hundred and fifteen dollars with a gain of $189. Now is a good time to go away as it’s more than what you entered the game with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a total investment of $391 and seeing as current wager is at $31, you win $465 with your take being $74.
As you can see, using this approach with only a $1.00 "press," your take becomes tinier the more you wager on without hitting. That is why you should walk away once you have won or you should wager a "full press" once more and then advance on with the $1.00 mark up with each roll.
Carefully go over the numbers before you attempt this so you are very adept at when this scheme becomes a non-winning adventure rather than a winning one.
