Internet Casino Sucker Bets — Part II
January 29th, 2010 by Kristen
  • Progressive side wagers: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You normally place a bet (a dollar is the usual amt.) to try to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Although huge jackpots like this are very tempting, they’re also incredibly difficult to win. You might have to hit a Royal Flush in order to win this bet. Also, imagine this- you wager twenty hands and make the side wager each time. That’s 20 dollars you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a bet with better odds employing that 20 dollars.
  • Individual 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 takes the complete casino advantage from 2.63percent with a single zero wheel to a huge 5.26percent in American. The individual number bet has just a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Bet on even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much smaller casino advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you gamble on it, the casino advantage can be a huge 25%. No, that is not a typo. Because of the huge amount of numbers you have to pick, it’s not recommended to wager on Keno very much. A couple of times for entertainment, perhaps. But don’t spend all your cash on it or you will quickly discover yourself beaten.
