Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2
Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker commonly contain one of these. You generally lay a wager (a dollar is the normal amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that can reach $25,000. Although huge jackpots like this are extremely alluring, they’re also incredibly hard to succeed. You would have to hit a Royal Flush in order to hit this wager. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and make the side wager every time. That is twenty dollars you could have used towards the actual game wager instead of a sucker wager. Picture what you could have been able to win at a wager with greater odds employing that twenty dollars.
Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This takes the complete casino edge from 2percent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5% in American. The individual number bet has only a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much smaller casino advantage.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you wager on it, the casino advantage can be a whopping twenty-five percent. Yes, that wasn’t a typo. Due to the huge amount of numbers you have to select, it isn’t advisable to bet on Keno to often. A couple of times for fun, maybe. But do not spend all your money on it or you will quickly discover yourself broke.
