Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You normally lay a wager (a dollar is the usual amt.) to try to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Although big jackpots like these are extremely alluring, they’re also very difficult to win. You might have to get a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager twenty hands and place the side bet every time. That is twenty dollars you could have used towards the real game bet in place of a sucker wager. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds employing that $20.
  • Single number bets in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has two zeroes on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the overall house edge from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a huge 5% in American. The individual number wager has only a one in thirty eight chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets instead which have a much smaller house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you play it, the house advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a error. Because of the large set of numbers you must pick, it’s not advisable to bet on Keno to often. A couple of times for enjoyment, maybe. But do not spend all your cash on it or you will quickly discover yourself broke.
