Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

  • Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You normally place a wager ($1 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 particularly alluring, they’re also particularly complicated to succeed. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and place the side wager each time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker wager. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a wager with greater odds employing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This takes the overall house advantage from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The individual number bet has just a 1 in thirty eight 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 advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the casino edge can be a whopping 25%. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Due to the large set of numbers you have to select, it is not recommended to gamble on Keno very much. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But do not waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself broke.
