Web Casino Sucker Bets — Part One

  • Proposition wagers in Craps: These Craps wagers basically means you are betting that a distinct feature may arise on the very next roll. For instance, you may make the ‘hard ways’ bet, which means that you are wagering that the tosser will toss a four, six, eight, or ten by rolling a double. These bets have a house edge of anywhere from nine to elevenpercent. This is a huge house edge, and it is incredibly atypical that they hit.
  • Tie bet in Baccarat: This is a wager that no one, the bank nor the player will come out on top, but that the hands will tie. This is an exceedingly rare occurrence in net Baccarat, therefore the house advantage is high. At 14.1percent casino edge, this is the very definition of a sucker bet.
  • Insurance wager in Black Jack: Although Blackjack has one of the smallest casino advantages (and there is also a ton of ability involved), this is a sucker wager. Relying on how many decks are being used and the table rules, the house edge of this is at least 5%, but can be as big as 14 percent. Only very experienced card counters are able to make this bet work for them, and more often than not then it remains a sucker bet.
