Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You usually lay a wager ($1 is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like these are extremely appealing, they are also very complicated to succeed. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and put the side bet every time. That is $20 you should have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker bet. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with better odds utilizing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just 1. This takes the overall house edge from 2percent with one zero wheel to a huge 5percent in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much smaller house edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you bet on it, the house advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. No, that was not a error. Because of the large set of numbers you have to select, it is not recommended to bet on Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, maybe. But do not spend all your cash on it or you will immediately discover yourself broke.
