Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part Two

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You normally place a bet ($1 is the usual amount) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are extremely appealing, they’re also very difficult to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager twenty hands and make the side bet each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet instead of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a bet with better odds employing that $20.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The one number bet has just a 1 in 38 chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much lower casino edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you bet on it, the house edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that was not a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to pick, it isn’t recommended to play Keno to often. A few times for fun, maybe. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will quickly find yourself broke.
