Web Casino Sucker Wagers — Part II

  • Progressive side bets: Games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You usually put a wager (a dollar is the normal value) to try to win a side jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like these are very appealing, they are also very hard to succeed. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and lay the side bet each time. That’s $20 you could have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker wager. Imagine what you could have been able to win at a wager with better odds utilizing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just 1. This takes the overall house edge from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a huge 5percent in American. The individual number wager has only a 1 in 38 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 house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you bet on it, the house advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. No, that isn’t a error. Because of the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it’s not recommended to play Keno very much. A few times for enjoyment, maybe. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will immediately find yourself beaten.
