If you consider using this system you need to have a sizable amount of money and amazing discipline to march away when you realize a small win. For the benefit of this story, a figurative buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are certainly not seen as the "winning way to play" and the horn bet itself carries a house advantage well over 12 %.
All you are betting is $5 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 gamble it always. The Yo is more common with gamblers using this system for obvious reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you join the table but only put five dollars on the passline and $1 on either the two, 3, 11, or twelve. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to $2. If it loses again, press to four dollars and then to $8, then to sixteen dollars and after that add a $1.00 each time. Each time you don’t win, bet the last value plus an additional dollar.
Using this approach, if for instance after fifteen rolls, the number you wagered on (11) hasn’t been thrown, you really should step away. However, this is what possibly could happen.
On the tenth toss, you have a sum total of $126 in the game and the YO at long last hits, you gain $315 with a profit of $189. Now is an excellent time to walk away as it is a lot more than what you entered the game with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a total bet of $391 and seeing as current bet is at $31, you earn $465 with your take being $74.
As you can see, using this system with only a one dollar "press," your gain becomes smaller the longer you gamble on without hitting. That is why you must march away after a win or you have to bet a "full press" again and then advance on with the $1.00 increase with each toss.
Carefully go over the numbers before you try this so you are very accomplished at when this approach becomes a non-winning proposition instead of a winning one.
