Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2

[ English ]
  • Progressive side wagers: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You usually put a bet (a dollar is the usual value) to try to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like these are very tempting, they’re also incredibly hard to win. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and place the side bet each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that $20.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just 1. This shifts the complete casino advantage from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The single number wager has only a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much smaller house edge.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it isn’t recommended to gamble on Keno very much. A few times for entertainment, maybe. But do not spend all your money on it or you will quickly find yourself bankrupt.
