Online Casino Sucker Bets — Part II
March 20th, 2016 by Kristen
  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker commonly offer one of these. You usually lay a bet ($1 is the usual value) to try to win a side jackpot that could be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like this are particularly alluring, they’re also particularly hard to win. You would need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, think about this- you wager 20 hands and make the side bet every time. That is $20 you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Just think about what you might have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds utilizing that $20.
  • Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, as opposed to European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the overall casino advantage from two% with one zero wheel to a huge 5percent in American. The single number bet has just a one in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers as a substitute which have a much lower house advantage.
  • Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that is not a typo. Because of the huge amount of numbers you must pick, it is not advisable to wager on Keno to often. A number of times for fun, perhaps. But don’t waste all your money on it or you will quickly find yourself bankrupt.
