Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You typically lay a wager ($1 is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like these are particularly appealing, they’re also very hard to succeed. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and lay the side bet every time. That is twenty dollars you should have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a bet with greater odds using that $20.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the overall casino edge from two% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5percent in American. The individual 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 lower casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the casino edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. Yes, that wasn’t a error. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it is not advisable to bet on Keno very much. A few times for fun, maybe. But don’t waste all your money on it or you’ll quickly discover yourself broke.
