Bet Large and Earn Little in Craps
If you consider using this scheme you must have a sizable bankroll and remarkable fortitude to march away when you achieve a tiny win. For the purposes of this article, a figurative buy in of two thousand dollars is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always judged the "successful way to wager" and the horn bet itself carries a casino edge well over twelve percent.
All you are betting is 5 dollars on the pass line and a single number from the horn. It does not matter whether it’s a "craps" or "yo" as long as you gamble it always. The Yo is more common with players using this scheme for obvious reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table however only put five dollars on the passline and one dollar on either the 2, 3, eleven, or twelve. If it wins, awesome, if it does not win press to two dollars. If it does not win again, press to $4 and then to $8, then to sixteen dollars and after that add a $1.00 every subsequent bet. Each time you do not win, bet the previous bet plus another dollar.
Adopting this system, if for example after fifteen tosses, the number you bet on (11) has not been tosses, you really should step away. However, this is what could happen.
On the tenth toss, you have a sum total of one hundred and twenty six dollars in the game and the YO finally hits, you come away with $315 with a gain of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a good time to step away as it’s more than what you joined the table with.
If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a complete investment of $391 and seeing as current bet is at $31, you win $465 with your profit of $74.
As you can see, adopting this approach with only a $1.00 "press," your take becomes smaller the longer you play on without hitting. That is why you have to leave away after a win or you should wager a "full press" once again and then advance on with the one dollar increase with each roll.
Crunch some numbers at home before you try this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a non-winning proposition rather than a profitable one.
