Net Casino Sucker Bets — Part II

Saturday, 29. October 2022

  • Progressive side bets: Games like Caribbean Stud Poker regularly have one of these. You generally put a wager (a dollar is the usual amount) to attempt to win a side jackpot that can be upwards of $25,000. Although huge jackpots like this are extremely appealing, they are also very difficult to win. You would need to get a Royal Flush in order to hit this bet. Also, think about this- you wager twenty hands and place the side wager each time. That’s $20 you could have used towards the real game bet instead of a sucker bet. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a bet with more favorable odds employing that twenty dollars.
  • Single number wagers in Roulette: This is completely true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 zeroes on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has just one. This takes the complete house edge from two% with one zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The single number wager has just a one in 38 chance of winning, which are very long odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers alternately which have a much lower house advantage.
  • Keno: Any version of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the house edge can be a whopping 25%. No, that wasn’t a error. Due to the large set of numbers you must select, it isn’t recommended to wager on Keno to often. A number of times for entertainment, perhaps. But do not waste all your cash on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself beaten.
