Wager Big and Gain Small playing Craps
If you commit to using this approach you need to have a very large amount of cash and remarkable discipline to walk away when you realize a small success. For the purposes of this story, an example buy in of $2,000 is used.
The Horn Bet numbers are not always deemed the "winning way to compete" and the horn bet itself has a casino edge of over 12 %.
All you are gambling is five dollars 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 routinely. The Yo is more popular with players using this approach for obvious reasons.
Buy in for two thousand dollars when you join the table however put only five dollars on the passline and $1 on one of the 2, 3, 11, or twelve. If it wins, great, if it does not win press to two dollars. If it loses again, press to $4 and then to $8, then to sixteen dollars and following that add a one dollar every subsequent bet. Each time you do not win, bet the previous bet plus a further dollar.
Using this system, if for example after fifteen rolls, the number you wagered on (11) hasn’t been tosses, you surely should march away. Although, this is what possibly could happen.
On the 10th toss, you have a sum of $126 on the table and the YO finally hits, you win three hundred and fifteen dollars with a take of one hundred and eighty nine dollars. Now is a great time to go away as it is more than what you entered the table with.
If the YO doesn’t hit until the 20th toss, you will have a total wager of $391 and seeing as current wager is at $31, you gain $465 with your profit being $74.
As you can see, adopting this approach with only a $1.00 "press," your take becomes smaller the more you play on without succeeding. That is why you have to walk away after a win or you have to bet a "full press" once again and then advance on with the one dollar boost with each hand.
Crunch some numbers at home before you attempt this so you are very adept at when this system becomes a losing adventure instead of a winning one.
