Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

  • Progressive side bets: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You generally place a bet (a dollar is the usual amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Though big jackpots like this are particularly appealing, they are also particularly complicated to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and lay the side wager each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker bet. Picture what you might have been able to win at a bet with better odds employing that twenty dollars.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the overall casino edge from twopercent with one zero wheel to a huge fivepercent in American. The one number wager has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much lower casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and anyway you wager on it, the house advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a error. Due to the huge amount of numbers you must select, it isn’t recommended to gamble on Keno to often. A couple of times for fun, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself broke.
