Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You normally place a bet ($1 is the usual amount) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could reach $25,000. Although big jackpots like these are very tempting, they are also particularly difficult to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, think about this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager every time. That is $20 you could have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds using that twenty dollars.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete house advantage from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a huge five% in American. The individual number wager has just a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on 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 casino advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that was not a typo. Because of the large amount of numbers you must select, it’s not advisable to play Keno to often. A couple of times for enjoyment, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself beaten.
