Net Casino Sucker Wagers -- Part II
- Progressive side wagers: Casino games like Caribbean Stud Poker often offer one of these. You generally put a bet (a dollar is the usual amount) to attempt to win a bonus jackpot that can be upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars. Though huge jackpots like these are very alluring, they’re also incredibly complicated to succeed. You would have to get a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this bet. Also, picture this- you play 20 hands and place the side wager each time. That’s 20 dollars you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker bet. Imagine what you might have been able to win at a bet with greater odds employing that 20 dollars.
- Single number wagers in Roulette: This is especially true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has two 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the overall house edge from 2.63percent with one zero wheel to a huge fivepercent in American. The individual number wager has only a one in 38 chance of succeeding, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red wagers instead which have a much lower house advantage.
- Keno: Any variation of Keno, and regardless of how you gamble on it, the casino advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that isn’t a typo. Due to the huge set of numbers you have to pick, it is not recommended to wager on Keno to often. A few times for entertainment, maybe. But do not waste all your money on it or you’ll quickly find yourself beaten.
