Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You generally lay a bet ($1 is the normal value) to try to win a side jackpot that can reach $25,000. Although huge jackpots like these are very alluring, they are also incredibly difficult to win. You might have to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, picture this- you play twenty hands and put the side wager every time. That is 20 dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet instead of a sucker bet. Imagine 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. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5percent in American. The single number bet has only a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much smaller casino advantage.

Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a error. Due to the large amount of numbers you have to choose, it’s not advisable to play Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you will immediately discover yourself bankrupt.
