Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two

  • Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly contain one of these. You generally put a bet ($1 is the usual value) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Although big jackpots like this are very appealing, they’re also incredibly hard to succeed. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and make the side bet each time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Picture what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that $20.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the complete casino edge from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The single number bet has only a one in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much lower casino edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the house edge can be a huge 25%. No, that was not a typo. Due to the large set of numbers you must choose, it’s not advisable to bet on Keno to often. A couple of times for enjoyment, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself broke.
