Internet Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2

Wednesday, 23. September 2020

  • Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly offer one of these. You typically place a wager ($1 is the normal value) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though big jackpots like these are extremely alluring, they are also very hard to win. You would have to get a Royal Flush in order to win this wager. Also, picture this- you play twenty hands and place the side wager every time. That’s 20 dollars you should have used towards the real game wager in place of a sucker bet. Picture what you might have been able to win at a wager with more favorable odds using that twenty dollars.
  • 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 just 1. This takes the complete house advantage from twopercent with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26percent in American. The one number wager has just a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much lower casino edge.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you bet on it, the house edge can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Because of the large amount of numbers you have to choose, it’s not advisable to gamble on Keno to often. A couple of times for entertainment, maybe. But don’t waste all your money on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself broke.
