Online Casino Sucker Wagers — Part 2
Posted by Davion on May 13th, 2019
Progressive side bets: Casino games such as Caribbean Stud Poker often contain one of these. You usually place a bet (a dollar is the usual amount) to try to win a bonus jackpot that could be upwards of $25,000. Though huge jackpots like these are extremely alluring, they’re also very difficult to win. You might need to hit a Royal Flush in order to succeed on this wager. Also, think about this- you play twenty hands and place the side bet each time. That is 20 dollars you could have used towards the real game wager instead of a sucker wager. Just think about what you could have been able to win at a wager with greater odds utilizing that 20 dollars.
Individual number bets in Roulette: This is particularly true for American Roulette. Why? American Roulette has 2 0’s on the wheel, unlike European Roulette, which has only one. This shifts the complete casino edge from 2.63% with a single zero wheel to a whopping 5.26% in American. The individual number wager has just a 1 in thirty eight chance of winning, which are very big odds indeed. Try even-odd or black-red bets alternately which have a much lower house edge.
Keno: Any version of Keno, and anyway you play it, the casino advantage can be a huge 25%. Yes, that wasn’t a typo. Because of the huge set of numbers you have to choose, it isn’t recommended to gamble on Keno to often. A number of times for enjoyment, perhaps. But do not waste all your cash on it or you’ll immediately discover yourself beaten.
