If you commit to using this approach you really want to have a sizable bankroll and superior fortitude to go away when you generate a tiny win. For the benefit of this story, an example buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always considered the "successful way to wager" and the horn bet itself carries a house edge of over 12 %.
All you are playing 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 play it always. The Yo is more dominant with players using this scheme for apparent reasons.
Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table but put only $5.00 on the passline and one dollar on one of the two, three, eleven, or 12. If it wins, beautiful, if it does not win press to two dollars. If it does not win again, press to four dollars and then to eight dollars, then to sixteen dollars and after that add a one dollar each subsequent wager. Every time you do not win, bet the previous bet plus a further dollar.
Adopting this approach, if for instance after fifteen tosses, the number you bet on (11) has not been thrown, you really should walk away. However, this is what might happen.
On the 10th roll, you have a total of $126 in the game and the YO finally hits, you gain $315 with a gain of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a good time to march away as it is higher than what you joined the table with.
If the YO does not hit until the 20th roll, you will have a complete investment of $391 and because your current action is at $31, you earn $465 with your take of $74.
As you can see, using this system with only a one dollar "press," your profit margin becomes smaller the more you play on without winning. That is why you have to march away once you have won or you should bet a "full press" once again and then advance on with the $1.00 increase with each toss.
Carefully go over the numbers before you attempt this so you are very adept at when this approach becomes a losing adventure instead of a winning one.
