Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

Progressive side bets: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You usually lay a bet ($1 is the usual amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Although huge jackpots like these are particularly alluring, they are also incredibly hard to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and put the side wager every time. That’s twenty dollars you could have used towards the real game bet in place of a sucker bet. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a bet with better odds employing that $20.
Single number wagers in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete casino advantage from two% with one zero wheel to a whopping five% in American. The one number bet has only a 1 in 38 chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much smaller house advantage.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and anyway you wager on it, the house edge can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Due to the large amount of numbers you must pick, it’s not recommended to play Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t spend all your money on it or you will immediately find yourself bankrupt.
