Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part 2

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly have one of these. You typically place a wager ($1 is the normal amount) to try to win a bonus jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Although huge jackpots like this are particularly appealing, they’re also very hard to succeed. You might 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 wager every time. That is 20 dollars you could have used towards the actual game wager in place of a sucker bet. Picture what you could have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds using that $20.
  • Individual number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. The reason? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only 1. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The individual number wager has only a 1 in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much lower casino edge.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you wager on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping 25%. No, that was not a error. Because of the large set of numbers you have to pick, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno very much. A couple of times for fun, perhaps. But do not waste all your cash on it or you will immediately find yourself beaten.
