Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

Progressive side bets: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker often have one of these. You typically put a bet ($1 is the usual value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach $25,000. Although huge jackpots like these are extremely tempting, they’re also particularly hard to win. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager each time. That’s twenty dollars you could have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds employing that $20.
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 complete house advantage from 2% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26percent in American. The single number bet has only a one in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much smaller house advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house edge can be a whopping twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a error. Because of the large amount of numbers you must choose, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t waste all your cash on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself broke.
