Web Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

  • Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You usually lay a wager (a dollar is the usual amount) to try to win a bonus jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Though big jackpots like these are particularly alluring, they are also incredibly hard to win. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, picture this- you play twenty hands and lay the side wager each time. That is 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds using that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only one. This takes the complete house advantage from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping fivepercent in American. The individual number wager has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much smaller house edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house edge can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that is not a error. Due to the huge amount of numbers you have to select, it isn’t recommended to play Keno very much. A couple of times for enjoyment, maybe. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself beaten.
