Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You generally lay a bet (a dollar is the usual amt.) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that could reach twenty-five thousand dollars. Although big jackpots like these are particularly appealing, they are also very hard to succeed. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, think about this- you play 20 hands and make the side wager every time. That’s twenty dollars you should have used towards the actual game bet in place of a sucker bet. Picture what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
Single number bets in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the overall house advantage from twopercent with one zero wheel to a huge 5percent in American. The individual number wager has only a one in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much lower house advantage.
Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you bet on it, the house edge can be a huge twenty-five percent. No, that is not a error. Because of the large amount of numbers you must select, it’s not advisable to play Keno very much. A number of times for fun, perhaps. But don’t waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately find yourself beaten.
