Wager Large and Win Little in Craps

If you decide to use this system you really want to have a very big amount of cash and amazing fortitude to leave when you accrue a small success. For the benefit of this essay, a sample buy in of $2,000 is used.

The Horn Bet numbers are certainly not looked at as the "winning way to play" and the horn bet itself has a house edge of over 12 %.

All you are wagering 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 routinely. The Yo is more prominent with people using this system for apparent reasons.

Buy in for $2,000 when you approach the table however only put five dollars on the passline and one dollar on one of 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 each subsequent bet. Every time you don’t win, bet the previous amount plus an additional dollar.

Using this scheme, if for example after 15 rolls, the number you wagered on (11) hasn’t been thrown, you really should march away. However, this is what could happen.

On the 10th toss, you have a total of one hundred and twenty six dollars in the game and the YO finally hits, you win $315 with a profit of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is an excellent time to walk away as it is more than what you entered the table with.

If the YO does not hit until the twentieth toss, you will have a total bet of $391 and seeing as current wager is at $31, you win $465 with your profit being $74.

As you can see, using this scheme with only a one dollar "press," your gain becomes smaller the longer you bet on without attaining a win. This is why you have to go away once you have won or you must wager a "full press" once more and then continue on with the one dollar boost with each hand.

Carefully go over the numbers before you attempt this so you are very familiar at when this approach becomes a losing proposition instead of a winning one.
