Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You generally lay a bet (a dollar is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Though huge jackpots like this are very appealing, they’re also very complicated to succeed. You might need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, picture this- you wager 20 hands and place the side wager every time. That is $20 you should have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a bet with better odds using that $20.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete house advantage from twopercent with a single zero wheel to a huge fivepercent in American. The individual number bet has just a one in thirty eight chance of winning, 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 regardless of how you gamble on it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. Yes, that wasn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you must select, it’s not recommended to gamble on Keno to often. A number of times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not spend all your cash on it or you will immediately discover yourself broke.
