Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part Two

  • Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You generally lay a wager ($1 is the normal value) to try to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Although big jackpots like these are extremely tempting, they are also incredibly difficult to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and lay the side wager each time. That’s twenty dollars you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker wager. Picture what you might have been able to win at a wager with greater odds using that $20.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This shifts the overall casino edge from two% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The single number wager has only a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much lower house advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the house advantage can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a error. Due to the large amount of numbers you have to pick, it is not advisable to gamble on Keno to often. A number of times for fun, perhaps. But do not spend all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself beaten.
