Wager Large and Win Little playing Craps
If you decide to use this system you really want to have a sizable pocket book and incredible discipline to walk away when you acquire a tiny success. For the purposes of this story, a sample buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are surely not looked at as the "winning way to play" and the horn bet itself has a house advantage well over 12 %.
All you are betting is five 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 play it constantly. The Yo is more common with players using this system for obvious reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you sit down at the table but put only five dollars on the passline and $1 on either the two, three, eleven, or 12. If it wins, great, if it loses press to two dollars. If it loses again, press to four dollars and continue on to eight dollars, then to $16 and after that add a one dollar each subsequent wager. Every time you do not win, bet the last amount plus one more dollar.
Using this approach, if for example after 15 tosses, the number you bet on (11) hasn’t been thrown, you without doubt should walk away. However, this is what could happen.
On the tenth roll, you have a sum of $126 in the game and the YO finally hits, you win $315 with a take of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a great time to go away as it’s more than what you entered the table with.
If the YO does not hit until the 20th toss, you will have a complete investment of $391 and because your current action is at $31, you gain $465 with your profit being $74.
As you can see, adopting this approach with only a one dollar "press," your take becomes tinier the longer you bet on without winning. This is why you must march away once you have won or you have to wager a "full press" once again and then advance on with the one dollar mark up with each toss.
Crunch some numbers at home before you try this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a losing affair instead of a profitable one.
