Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You usually place a wager (a dollar is the normal amt.) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like these are particularly appealing, they are also very complicated to succeed. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager 20 hands and make the side wager each time. That’s $20 you should have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker wager. Picture what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds using that twenty dollars.
  • Single 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 advantage from 2.63% with one zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The single number bet has just a one in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets as a substitute which have a much smaller casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the house edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that wasn’t a typo. Due to the large amount of numbers you have to pick, it is not advisable to wager on Keno to often. A couple of times for fun, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself beaten.
