Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2

  • Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You normally put a bet ($1 is the normal amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that could reach $25,000. Though big jackpots like this are very tempting, they are also particularly difficult to succeed. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, imagine this- you play 20 hands and place the side bet every time. That is $20 you should have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker wager. Picture what you might have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds employing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This takes the complete casino edge from 2% with one zero wheel to a huge five% in American. The individual number bet has just 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 advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you wager on it, the house advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a error. Due to the huge amount of numbers you must choose, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno to often. A number of times for enjoyment, maybe. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself broke.
